This month my cycle has been so weird.
I always have very normal cycles and Ovulation times. Even my Doctor is impressed with how accurate my body is each month.

So heres whats going on. This month i O'ed very late for me. I o'ed on cd 17. Well on cd 27 i stared to spot and thought it was AF. Well here i am 4 days later and still spotting VERY VERY light. Next to nothing. I have no cramps or anything.

Well yesterday my DH was going to his SA appointment and before he left he asked if i would test just to make sure i wasn't pregnant. Silly guy didn't want to do a SA if he didn't have to. I tested and got a BFN.


I read up on implantation bleeding and it said it can take place 6-10 days after ovulation and last up to 5 days.

What do you guys think? Is my body just being weird? Or does it sound like it might be implantation bleeding?
Also if i o'ed that late how soon would i be able to test to get a positive? I'm annoyed and confused. Please be honest with what you think. I can take it As of right now i am counting this as AF.

Hey honey! Have you contacted your Dr. yet? It sounds to me alot like my last cycle. I thought maybe it was implantation bleeding because I had 0 AF symtoms. Well it was AF.
You should be able to get a + test as early as 10dpo for some...others can take 20 or more days.
What my Dr. had me do was if I continued spotting for a week (which I did) he told me to take one more HPT and if it was negative to come in. They did a blood test just to be sure, which was negative, and then they just counted it as AF. I never really had much more of a flow than the spotting....I would say contact your Dr. and give it a day or two more.

ok thanks! Thats good to know.
What i don't understand is why my body waited until i was trying to get pregnant to turn all wacky on me
I am sure it could be stress too..I am so stressed about all this ttc stuff.

Have you ever had a cycle like that before where you spotted like that?

It sounds like a funky cycle to me. Maybe it's thrown off a little b/c you O'd late. I'd count it as AF but maybe contact your dr just to be on the safe side & see what he/she thinks. That'd be awesome if you got a late BFP out of this!!

I had had a few cycles that were weird. But that was the only one that I had spotting like that before....

Thanks for the advice. I am thinking it's a funky cycle too. But a BFP would always be nice

I hope it's just IB. I'd test in a few more days and if nothing then call your dr for a blood draw. I hope this is your cycle Jamie!!!

Good to know!! I guess this is my first crazy cycle. I hope it's my last too.

I think i will test tomorrow morning if AF isn't normal by then.
I have to call my DR. by the end of the week about DH's SA so i will ask him then if things haven't changed.

Thank you!!

That sounds like a good plan!! Good Luck!! I hope its your time for a BFP!!!

[fuzzysunshine]

I don't have much to add, but hope this is it!!!!

[Jlynn]

Thanks ladies!!

I hope it is IB! Keep us updated for sure

[Jlynn]

Thanks!! I will
I have some cramps now so i am thinking AF is just being crazy on me this cycle!

[Clare]

I really hope it is IB for you. I get spotting every month for 4 days before AF starts but i hope that thats not what it is for you!

[MamaAnna]

It sounds like a funky cycle, but I'll keep my fingers crossed that it's IB. If it is it should be a bare minimum of four days after implantation before you can get a BFP and even then that's only if your numbers sky rocket. If you have a more gradual rise then it could easily take a week or two or even three to get a positive depending on the test. Good luck!

Any updates??

[Jlynn]

It's still very light today. I didn't get a chance to buy a test yesterday so i am going to go out and buy some tonight!!
Thanks ladies for all the comments

Lately I've been spotting my first day then AF comes full force. I'm hoping your is IB and you get BFP!!!! KUP.
