Ohhh no Hberry !!! Could it be implantation as it can take a few days after implantation fir the blood to travel down ?

BB- my last cycle did the same thing as it is doing today. I've also never had implantation bleeding with any of my other pregnancies.
ETA... I used bathroom again and again wiped and now it is a dark red. I'm officially out

Hberry- I’m so sorry! Have a drink and take some time for you! Each period feel like a loss, or at least a lost opportunity- take some time to mourn the loss so you can move on to a fresh start in your new cycle

Kahan- I wish I had it this cycle so then the baby would share a birthday if not be close to my mom and my late grandma Eleanor.

@K&N CONGRATULATIONS!!!

@Hberry I am so so sorry! That seriously sucks. We were all so sure!

OK, 6dpo. Vivid dreams last night, bbt spike, mood swings/irritability, headache, breast tenderness, and I had a hot flash after doing the dishes! My face was burning, I had to stand in front of a fan! (hot flashes were my first symptom with my chemical last month, so this is exciting!) I am also experiencing the most intense itching in my right breast and nipple. It's frikkin awful. My right is always more symptomatic than my left for some reason, always more lumpy and sore than the other side during the tww. The itching is so bad that I can't ignore it, so I'm hoping that this odd symptom is a good sign!

E got my fingers crossed for you Hun ! Sounds like your symptoms are stacking up. One of mine is insomnia it’s 03:18 am and I’m wide awake

E- I hope you get your baby this cycle, too!
Bb- my insomnia has been crazy these last few days, too! I hope it turns out that same for you with you BFP just around the corner.
AFM- Dr. ordered blood levels today. Hcg hasn’t been posted yet, but my progesterone looks good at 24.8ng/mL. He should be calling next week to set up my first appt, which he wants to do early due to my history of miscarriage. I’m so excited to have a good Dr who wants to work with me and help me along. I believe I will also be considered Advanced Maternal Age because I will turn 35 2 weeks before baby’s due date, and am already high risk due to my history of preterm birth (my oldest was 3w2d early, and youngest was 6w early). I had Gestational diabetes with my youngest, as well. All these factors added together- I Am one high risk momma!

@bb oh insomnia is the worst! Taking magnesium consistently helps me a lot, and if I miss my tired window and get a se ond wind, taking .5 to 1 mg of melatonin sorts me right out. I also always use a blue light filter on my electronics after sunset. I've dealt with insomnia for years because of my health problems and these are what have helped me the most!

@K&N My goodness, what a history! My mum was considered a geriatric pregnancy when she carried my sister and maybe even me because she was in her 30s. Well even wihh your high risk history, best of luck and many many prayers for you to have a safe, and totally uneventful pregnancy and birth of your beautiful baby! I really hope I can join the rainbow club in a few days!
