Spoting?!

Lemme ask you lads something..
Am I spotting for early pregnancy or what?! Okay, so today I wore a tampon because of CM and to keep it from getting everywhere.. I took it out about 20 minutes ago and there's like a thin line of pinkish blood on it. Is this implantation bleeding or AF? I'm supposed to see AF today but if she was coming she woulda shown up this morning.. atleast ever since I've had periods it comes in the morning when I first wake up and it's not light its heavy and dark red *shrugs* HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!

you should try not to use a tampon for CM, only AF.  maybe a pantyliner but not a tampon.

did you get your complete AF yet or still just light spotting?

have you taken a pregnancy test yet?  how late are you for your period exactly.  usually a pregnancy test will help especially if you are a week or so late.  i have always used the digital ones because they tests at a lower HCG level than others.

or you could go to your doctor and have them do a blood test:)

Im guessing it couild be af on her way,the fact you put in a tampon is maybe why it was on a little blood,as you were blocking it,this happens to me if i were a tampon.you could test today but no garrentees you ov on the same day as each month can be different i would wait few days then test...

when AF comes she never comes like this.. when she comes, she's here. No surprises. I always start AF in the mornings when I do my first bathroom run when waking up. It didn't happen like that this time *shrugs* Since yesterday I have had a little bleeding that's pinkish but not enough to put on a tampon.. I put on a panti liner and its just two drops and thats it.. not even drops more like umm smeers
