What the heck??  I am was only 11 dpo and my af came early. This never happens. I thought i had implantation spotting, but it turns out it was my af coming. This is the first time ever i got my af this early. I wasnt due until the 26th. I noticed that my temp dropped again below my coverline. I was hoping it wasnt what i thought it meant. and poof.  There she is. Its not yet a flow. But i notice red when i wiped. So assume she is here. Damn. This has been the weirdest month by far. I had O cramps, then the cramping continued everyday, and now my af is starting to appear. I guess after my m/c in sept, my cycle is out out of whack.

Well I had what felt like period cramps starting a few days after ovulation,everyday after ovulation then the day AF was to start I spotted brown for a few hours then it started to flow. I never usually have severe cramping during periods except for this month and about 2 months ago when I could have been pregnant then too. Now I k\don't know if they were very early miscarriages or just regular bad periods.

Did you bleed early, or right when you expected your period?  How did you find out you were pregnant?

You know I bleed when I was pregnant with my son. I bleed bright red with bad cramps for three days. I would have mistaken it for my period if I had not found out I was pregnant so early ( 2 weeks) so take a test anyway and just see

You really know your stuff. Thanks. As you know, this is very frustrating. I hope I do get a normal cycle this coming month. Maybe its because i am getting older my period is getting off its normal schedule. I will try the b6.  Great advice. Thanks again.

Yes its possible to have an anovulation cycle.it happens to most women some time through there life..your right about your luteal phase being short,it needs to be at least 12 + to support a pregnancy,10 days is to short,you may find your next cycle will be ok,since you came on late last cyle by 6 days,yet early this cycle i would say next cycle should be normal.its also possible you o early than you thought.i did have a short luteal phase since my mc in sep i take b6 vitamin to extend it,it does work,last month it was 11 days now im 13 days.and still waiting.cramps following o is pefectly normal.i wouldnt worry on that issue.try to not get yourself worked up.this also wont help,it sends your body completely out of wack i do know most of the women here and ones i know have concieved when they more or less gave up.

some women get this whilst on the pill,but obviously since your not,it is another term used for bleeding in early pregnancy,since we can have a normal period,during pregnancy..
Implantation Bleeding
Implantation bleeding can cause you some confusion when you are unsure whether or not you are pregnant. It is not always easy to tell what is break through bleeding, or spotting between periods, and what is actually implantation spotting. The difference between period and implantation bleeding is that implantation bleeding occurs as a result of the embryo burrowing into your endometrium. However, because implantation spotting usually occurs right around the time you would be expecting your period, it is easy to mistake it for your period or as breakthrough bleeding.
Implantation bleeding signs generally include blood that is lighter than menstrual bleeding and is either pink or brown in color. How long implantation bleeding lasts will vary from woman to woman. It is important to note, though, that spotting in early pregnancy is not the same as implantation bleeding.
