Too good to be true. At 9dpo, I woke up to some bleeding. Not sure if it's implantation bleeding or period. Will see how the day progresses.

Dragonfly: fingers crossed for implantation bleeding! But if AF gets you, sorry.

@southern. Thanks girl. Today has been really weird for me. I have excess thirst, peeing lots (probably by too much water consumption), heartburn, heart palpatations and mild uterine cramping. Spotting started around 9am and so far there is no blood on my pad. I do a toilet paper check and there is not a whole lot of blood and it's not a really bright red; more like if you cut your finger. The only odd thing is I have a strange case to smelling it and honestly, there is no smell at all. Does implantation bleed have a smell or no? Just thought I'd add that I was sitting down, leaning over and I felt some flutters near my left belly button. Is my mind playing tricks on me or am i actually pregnant?

Dragonfly: I really hope its implantation bleeding. Mine with this current BFP was a light pink only when I wiped and lasted a day and I didn't notice any smell. Although I didn't actively check. Keep us posted today how it goes.

Afm im doing well. Battling alot of morning sickness. So much more (and earlier) than with my first pregnancy. Fingers crossed its only a good sign. I get bloods back tomorrow and hopefully can look at booking in the first ultrasound for a couple of weeks time. We are in lockdown at the moment so everything is such a slow process.

Dragonfly: it sounds pretty promising as implantation bleeding! And it's about the right time too!

@melerinn and southern. Thank you. I hope you are right but it really isn't pink, more red, nothing like my other periods as well. I will post a picture when I can. I remember with my last cycle, I started spotting around supper time and by the end of the night is when I finally noticed it on the pad. So roughly 5 hours.

Spotting got heavier so looks like I'm out this month. Do I mark yesterday as CD1 or today? Going to start taking the Maca and hope it resets my hormones. Good luck to everyone who is gearing up to ovulate or testing soon.

Dragonfly: I'm so sorry AF got you. Hope you are doing okay. I'd normally mark yesterday (first day of spotting/bleeding) as Cd1 if I were in your place but im not sure if thats correct. Thats just me.
Good luck for this month hun!

@melerinn. I'm doing good actually. I knew there was a slim chance of conceiving. Yes, I marked yesterday as AF. Who knows what this month will bring. Just started taking Maca and will see how that goes.

Hello ladies. I was just here a year ago. Sadly, I lost my son at 3 months of age. My fiancé and I are so heartbroken we decide to try again. I got my iud taken out at 3 months postpartum. We did the deed the same night and started to bleed the next day. Is that normal? It feels like my period.
