Hi everyone! I am in need of some insight...I posted earlier that after DH and I bd on about 4 dpo I had pretty bright red bleeding when I used the restroom (which, if this were two years ago it would not have surprised me, I had/have endometriosis and bled after intercourse every time, it was also almost always painful). Since I had my son 18 months ago this has not happened, and thankfully no painful intercourse anymore (yah! The doc said the pregnancy "burned out the endometriosis")! Then boom, sunday night the bleeding seems to have come back, but bd was not uncomfortable at all...Then it stopped all day Monday and Tuesday. Now today is about 7dpo and I have brown mucousy discharge and feel crampy...If this is my period I am one whole week early! :( grrrr...what do you think?! Does ANYONE have any similar experiences? TIA

@otown haha i felt bad writing that about him so I just deleted it.
But yeah he keeps saying I hope its true then trys to not get excited.

@nicole2014 i bought a pack of 20 strips from amazon uk it's the first lot i had used so it seems to have worked out for me. We find it hard to get the chance to fit IT in with children about but knocking on the door as soon as we disappear so i would work out when i thought the days we needed to to get busy and would tell him so he had an idea whats happening and prepare himself.

Thanks everyone for advice and input.

@ Runnermama My cycles are so unpredictable I'm either a week late, a week early, or a few days either way. I give up keeping track! I used to be a 28 day cycle Starting on a wed each and every time without fail, and now i'm anywhere from 24 to 30 on any random day. I just start expecting my period from 3 weeks and on.
This is why it's impossible to figure out when i'm ovulating and I don't even bother. Seems like a full time job figuring that out.
I have never experienced bleeding after sex so I can't say what that might be from.
When do you think you will start to poas for this month?

Thanks for the reply! I think I'm on to the February board....still spotting here and there, crampy, and crabby! It is what it is I guess! I think I will wait until June and maybe think of the opks...May is just going to be way too busy! Last month of school, two races, and my sister in laws wedding. Boy oh boy!

Where is the february board?

I don't think there is one yet...but there should be! [

Still waiting for AF to arrive. (4 days late / - HPT's)

This is the first cycle that I've used an OPK (I got a + on CD19) and my cycles are usually 28-30 days (like clockwork). I'm not sure if late ovulation is the exception or the norm, especially since I just started using B6 to help extend my luteal phase.

So technically, if I O'd on CD19 and have a 14 day luteal phase, I may not actually be due until tomorrow or Saturday so I decided to wait until Sunday or Monday to test again.

My back hurts. Now I'm paranoid I have a kidney infection. I am such a hypochondriac haha. I was supposed to have a complete physical today with my doc but I rescheduled because of my UTI. I didn't feel like being poked and prodded till I was better lol

Last night I had a dream I did three preg tests and they were all positive. I woke up and did one and it was negative. :\

@ Runnermomma yes someone should make a February board soon. LOL how funny, we just keep going- making new boards for every month.

@ Jayneb keep us posted. Hopefully you get your positive! Do you have any special symptoms to report?

I have a few: headache, bloating, gas, backaches/body aches (on and off), fatigue, runny nose - but they could be connected to AF or allergies.

The only symptom that's making me scratch my head is sore nipples - they never hurt. My boobs don't hurt at all, but even the slightest graze of the nipple and it hurts. It started a day or two ago.

Just posted my tests in the 15dpo my names on it this time
