Worried for Disappointment
We have been trying for our second child for nearly 3 years. We've pretty much left up to nature. My last AF was on 9/28/14, I have pretty regular 28 day cycles. We tried to conceive on 10/11/14. My next AF is supposed to be 10/26, but yesterday morning I started noticing come light bleeding when I would wipe, I put on a pad just to be safe, nothing made it to the pad all day yesterday. Today it is a little heavier, still not heavy, but heavier than yesterday. COlor ranges from pink to red. For about 5 days I have been having lower abdominal cramps (light). Yesterday and today I am very nauseous, and for the past couple of days I have been tired and have had a weird taste in my mouth. I have taken a HPT and it was negative. I was hoping that I had just taken it too early. What do you all think? Did I just get my AF early?

You still have time, seems like you have implantation bleeding. If you have a regular consistent 28day cycle then your period is very early. Im in the same cycle as you but my AF is due 10/25 so I'm waiting after that date to test. Best wishes to you, it seems that this month is yours. God bless you and keep me updated

twin#1 Thank you so much for the words or encouragement. I am trying hard not to stress too much over what might or might not be going on but it's hard not too, lol. Only time will tell, I am just going to wait and see how long this bleeding lasts and what happens next.

Update, the flow of bleeding has not increased at all today, in fact it may be a little lighter this afternoon.I have not filled up a pad all day, in fact I could have probably gotten away with a liner today. I am not quite as nauseous as I was this morning but I have been having a few flutters in my stomach this afternoon; hard to describe them, almost like someone tugging on my shirt but in my stomach/uterus area. I am trying to hard to stay positive and live by my motto: What is meant will happen

Hey anwocox, I understand the disappointment of trying for so long for #2. My DH and I tried for over 3 years before I became pregnant with #2. I had crazy cycles, I would have all the symptoms that with #1 indicated pregnancy but this time just normal PMS, every month! I had one cycle that went for over 40 days with no AF and no BFP :( It sounds like you could be experiencing implantation bleeding. I would wait until AF is due and then test. With #2 I had no unusual symptoms. The only indication I had that this time might be different was the fact that I had previously been checking my cervix and I noticed it was higher than usual for that time in my cycle. Good luck and Baby dust!

Thanks for the comments, it is so hard just waiting beca all I do at this point is keep waiting. I am trying hard not to obsess about the possibility of another dissappoitment but it is so hard. We really want another child! I'm at the point now I am starting to wonder if some of my "symptom" are just wishful thinking. It's so nice to have a place like this to share. I sure hope I have some great need to share with you and my husband in a few days.

Update for tonight, bleeding has gotten lighter and has some egg white discharge mixed in. All other symptoms have gone :(. No fluttering, no nausea, no cramping, no nothing. I guess it was just a lot of wishful thinking, but maybe in a few days I'll have something good to report.

Well today the bleeding is only there when I wipe. Also I have had to unbutton by pants and hold them together with a rubber band I am so bloated, lol. It actually hurts my stomach when I sit down and have to lean on my desk to work on the computer. I am going to stop by the store on the way home and buy a couple more tests and do my best to wait until the weekend to take them.
My husband and I discussed it last night and he feels that this should be our last attempt, he think our hearts and my sanity can not take nay more let downs.
