@ temping/cycle related question

also, at any time you all would rather me go ask gp.. i will do that. i don't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable. i'm just not scared with you girls.. :)

anyway, so my nipples are really tender and i spotted today. i went to the bathroom during 2nd job and there was very light but obvious spotting.. but only for one wipe. i went again before i left and there was nothing.. and also nthing now.

any ideas? yes, i probably should just wait it out.

Re: @ temping/cycle related question

  • it's too early for implantation spotting right?

  • Hmm, since you are only 4dpo I say give it a few more days.

    That being said it could very, very slightly/possibly be implantation spotting, but you don't have the implantation temp dip to go with it. Unless that happens tomorrow. The only reason I'm thinking that it could possibly be that is because your nipples are tender as well. 

     All that being said, not sure if you have any idea because obviously the pill does weird things to your body. But.... did you ever have tenderness etc. around ovulation regularly in your cycle or never? 

    Give it a few days and see what your temp does.. if it stays up. Who knows. I'd also ask you what your regular LP is but you probably haven't established that yet since you've only recently started temping. 

     Btw: don't feel the need to go ask GP, I'm totally okay with you asking!

  • It might be to early for implantation bleeding. I would give it about 5 more days before you test if you decide too.

    Do you have the book Taking charge of your fertility? 

    no i don't. i googled it and it said it could be.. but who knows.

    also, charted for several cycles and my average lp length is 13 days.. from before.. and it seems since i o'd on day 20, i think my cycles must be like before.. or who knows. i know i should wait and see.. and i'm not super anxious, like i need to test this minute. i just wondered what you thought. :)

    Aww...I feel loved.  :)

    I agree with Johlise.  It's a possibility that the spotting could be implantation....but really, it could happen for all kinds of reasons.  It's one of the super frustrating things about TTC; there are all sorts of "signs" that could mean you're pregnant, or they could just mean that your body's deciding to be weird.  :)

    Agreed!  Sometimes I think our bodies are just telling us big jokes on purpose.  I cannot tell you how many cycles I have been excited because of "symptoms" only to start my period the next day.  

    Sarak, we are a family here, please don't feel like you need to go over to gp to talk about this stuff.  It's part of your life, and we want to be part of that. :)

    I highly suggest getting that book and reading it. Honestly it gave me tons of answers to questions I had when I first started temping. Even if you get a used one and don't pay full price for it... I know I did Smile

  • Sarack, you're in the south end, right?  I can give you my Taking Charge or your Fertility Book.  I also have What to Expect Before You're Expecting that you can have.  I had an old Seattle Bumpie give them to me when we first started trying for #2, so I'd love to pass them on.  Let me know.  I can meet you today if you'd like.

  • Could be, but it could also be nothing... but your chart looks great! It's mostly a wait-and-see right now, unfortunately. You can POAS at 10dpo, but that's suuuuuper early.

    But sore boobs is a good sign! LOL But do you normally get sore boobs before your AF?
