Wondering....warning TMI I'm sure.

I'm using an alternate name, one I have obviously used before because there are people who know me personally on here and I don't want any rumors going around.

AF was due yesterday (Thursday), I'm clock-work, always have been but on Wednesday I woke up with cramps which usually signals AF's arrival that day. This is definitely TMI, but when I went to the bathroom in the morning there was a little bit of blood (red) when I wiped so I threw on a panty liner and only had very light spotting (brownish) later that morning and that was it. Nothing the rest of Wednesday, nothing yesterday, nothing today (so far). Last time we had sex was Valentine's Day. I have to add that I'm on the patch, have been for over a year, on BC for like 10 years. Could this be wishful thinking? A baby wouldn't be the best timing since we're newlyweds and in the process of buying a home but would be happy news. I don't know, just wanted some thoughts from the very wise ladies of LIW.

Thanks!

It's possible that it is implantation bleeding - but its possible its not too.

If AF was due yesterday - then you can take a test now and see for sure if you are pregnant or not.

You are best off knowing sooner than later so that you don't start your next round on BC in case you are pregnant.

I agree, that it would show up on a HPT now, best bet would be to get one jsut to be sure.

Its hard to say. It could be implantation spotting or it might just be AF spotting. Anything could throw off your cycle. Stress can make your cycle off and pregnancy symptoms and AF symptoms are very similar. The only way to be sure is to take a test.

Just wanted to thank those of you who gave me their thoughts. AF showed up on saturday. Part of me was relieved, but the other part was kind of sad. I guess the stress of buying the house affected my body a bit. DH and I did talk about officially TTC and we agreed that September would be the best time for us.

Thanks again.
