I have no cramps and feel like normal. Except I a little bit of spotting and it went away and some gas. Sorry if TMI. AF is due on May 10th. Do you think I stand a chance of maybe being pregnant?

YES you do! Some women dont feel ANYTHING at all and only test when AF is late. My friend was like that - no PG symptoms at ALL with either pregnancy.
Good luck!

do you normally spot before AF? I SWORE AF was coming, but the cramps were really early on and I was getting very bloated and gassy!

I usually spot a few days before but a constant spotting, this was just a little bit , and now it is gone, sorry if TMI. I am also very cold latekly and when i am getting AF I am usually more warm then usual.

spotting sounds like implantation!

Re: Do I stand a chance this month?
Great chance it's implantation spotting. Are you temping ??? How does your chart look ? What is your usual luteal phase ? Are you about 9 dpo ? Because...that's a perfect chance for implantation to occur......was the spotting brown ?
If you conceived 9 days ago.....then it would take the fertilized egg about 7 days to travel to the uterus to implant........any type of blood you see after that, that's brownish....could be old blood...(leftover blood from the implantation)........
How did you notice you were spotting ? Was it mixed with mucus ?

Re: Do I stand a chance this month?
It was weird the blood was mixed with mucus, but I am not getting my hopes up. I keep thinking it is just my period, but it just disappeared, it happened twice the other day. I am also snacking a lot but that can be from PMS too. I ovulated on day 9 or 10 I am not sure, and I usually write it down and I did not this month. Is it too soon to test? I am so sick of wasting $$ on thiose darn tests only to come up negative.

Sorry of TMI but I noticed I was spotting a bit when I wiped from the bathroom, but it was more like discharge with some blood tinge to it, and then it disppeared.

I would wait until the weekend to test and only test if you're ok with a negative. What I mean is a lot of tests before AF is due come up negative. If that is going to devestate you then wait at least one day past AF's due date. Try not to think about it too much (I know it's hard) and good luck!

Thanks for the support ladies. I took a test, and of course it was negative, but I know it is too early to tell yet. I am going to wait until I am 1 day late. I am okay getting a negative, but I cannot help but wonder what is going on in my body. It is driving me crazy! I saw preg. tests at the dollar sotre, but I did not buy it, I was afraid they would be defective and since it would only be a dollar it is a lot less money then one from the drugstore, but I would be afriad I would go nuts testing and get false readings, keep your fingers crossed for me. Thanks for all of your responses. Please send me baby dust! and baby dust back too all of my TTC buddies!

Re: Do I stand a chance this month?
I had no symptoms - just mild cramping a few days before AF was due (that was abnormal for me). Sounds like you may have had some implantation spotting!!

Re: Do I stand a chance this month?
i have never used the dollar store tests, but I heard they are actually pretty good.
Would you happen to know your usual Luteal phase ? (how long between ovulation and AF?)
Any test before that time period is up has a great chance of coming back negative......
Not only does it take at 7-12 days to implant, it then takes about 3 days for the egg to burrow. You can have enough HCG after implantation to show up on an HPT but you may not. It takes longer for HCG to be traced in your urine, then in your blood. Some people, get the bfp right after implantation but unfortunately their egg doesn't burrow and it's a chemical pregnancy. Testing early can be stressful but then it's also important....because ...some people figure out they are lacking progesterone that way ....
