Any have any ideas?

my husband and I have been trying to conceive since June and no luck as of yet. I went to my doctors for some irregular bleeding and its possible I had a missed ab but I didn't have to have a D&C or medication. Since then my periods have been irregular. It's hard for me to judge when I'm ovulating or even when my next period is due. I've been bleeding and or spotting more days of the month than I haven't. Everything els GYN wise is normal. I started taking Vitex after doing a lot of research and for the first time in quite a while I'm feeling normal and the bleeding has stopped. This month when I believe I was ovulating due to EWCM my husband and I BD'd every other day. I'm now I believe in the TWW period and had some brown spotting on probable CD16. I've now come down with a stuffy nose and congestion. My breasts feel tender but not unbearable. I'm trying not to get too excited as I know the disappointment once AF shows up but I'm so hoping this is it! Is it possible the spotting was IB? Thoughts?

Thanks in advance. This is terrible long I know!

So here's the update....for two nights I have had very vivid dreams non baby related but I never remember my dreams and these were bizarre. Stuffy nose and dry throat is still here. And I'm thirsty. Also my gums feel swollen and kind of like they are throbbing. Very strange feeling. It's behind my front teeth. I have had incredibly sharp shooting pains in my bb's especially the left and cramping. Hmmm?!  Still waiting it all out but I'm feeling everything is adding up?...

It is possible but i also know this disappointment so i don't want to add to that by saying its highly likely. It could also have been from ovulating as you obviously had quite a bit of bleeding so ovulating may have triggered some old blood to work its way down. The fact that everything at the doctor looked good is very promising!!! Baby dust to you!
