Question

AF late, rising BBT but spotting?

DH and I have been TTC for about 7 months now. My cycle has been pretty predictable: Ovulate on day 16 AF visits on Day 28. This month I actually ovulated on day 14. I am now 16 DPO and 2 days late for AF. My temp usually drops the day before or the day of AF's arrival, but instead it has continued to rise. The problem is, I am spotting very lightly and have been for 6 days. I actually started spotting after my annual visit with the GYN, which has never happened before, and have not stopped. I knew at that point that it was a little early for AF and it was probably just a little bleeding from the pap. Now, 6 days later, I am beginning to wonder. It is so slight that it is really only present on TP. I am dead tired today, want to snack every time I see food and find myself having to use the restroom constantly. I am a little nauseous and have a slight headache. I plan to test this weekend if AF does not arrive, but thought I would get some advice first.

It sounds like you could very well be pregnant. Have you poas yet? The BBT rising is a very good indication plus spotting in early pregnancy is common, probably nothing to worry about but it may be worth booking an appointment for a test and check over.

I did test 6 days ago. Though I knew it was a little early, I was keeping my fingers crossed that I would get that lovely positive before my Dr. apt. Unfortunately, and not surprisingly, it was negative. I am trying to hold off testing again until this weekend. My husband wants to be here when I test. :-) I hope I can hold out though, it is killing me!
