Spotting or period? How can you tell?
Tcc and confused if I am pregnant or not. My flow is light and slightly brown and usually day 2 I am pretty heavy but I am not. I have pcos and have had it disappear for 6 months before so I am hoping I am pregnant and Aunt Flo isn't taking a vacation again. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks ladies.
Big old negative again this month. I guess it was just super light with is odd for me
You can't really tell unless you take a pregnancy test. I had what I thought was my period starting/spotting but turns out it was what they call "implantation bleeding" when the egg is attaching to the uterus and I was pregnant. Not saying that's what you're having but it could be so you could take a test to check.
Here is what I posted on a similar question
I can't believe this thread has lasts more then 5 years. I've read 75% of the pages and I can't believe how many NEED a reply but never post their outcome. Here is my problem and in 8 days when I take a pregnancy test or if my symptoms stop completely before I test I will keep you updated.
My fertile window past 6 days ago. In the past 6 days I've had a lot of tingling sensations in my breast and nipples, I think I'm urinating more then usual, Slight nauseousness here and there and I'm tired. Day 5 past ovulation, I thought I started implantation bleeding. I had sharp right pelvic pain about 30 minutes before the bleeding. The implantation bleeding was Brownish with what looked like a few strings. About 20 minutes after that I felt wetness and checked again and it was a lot more; brownish smear on toilet paper on 3 wipes. Slight cramping followed this. That all happened before 7:30 pm. I went to bed around midnight. Nothing really until next morning. I had a few brownish streaks. After I started moving around I felt more wetness and when I checked I expelled a few tiny clots that were a darker red. There really wasn't a blood flow with it. I've had cramping on and off with mild lower back pain too. A few hours have past and nothing. I know this isn't a period because, even though my period is light, it's consistent. There is always blood.
BUT
I don't know if this is implantation bleeding, a cyst bursting, failure of the egg implanting and expelling (miscarriage) or a strange period that's a week early. It's to soon to test. As soon as I know anything, or if my bleeding increases - streaks - smears etc, or if my pregnancy symptoms stop I'll keep you updated. My ovulation tracker says I can test in 8 days. So from now until 8 days I will repost.
For those of you reading if you're going to post about your fears and concerns, it would be nice even if your outcome is painful and depressing TELL us. When you posted you were scared and worried. You know how we feel so by posting you may ease someone's hardship. Don't be selfish.

If ANY can give me any input I would appreciate it. I have been trying for a very long time and I'm excited, scared and now worried.
Thank you
Since I've been writing I've had to stop twice to pee. ... My fingers and toes are crossed. I remain hopeful and I'm meditating to stay calm. I don't want stress to add to this. Maybe by being positive I can influence positive energy for a positive outcome....?
