high, hard, closed cervix?

Louise · Jan 12th, 2007, 15:46 PM

My Cervix has been high, hard and closed since a day or so after ovulation!
At 8 dpo I started experiancing a bit of bleeding but this was only when I checked my CP- It did not psychically go on to my underwear and was not there when I wiped TMI I know.
It lasted for around 2 and a half days and has not been seen since (thank god) First the bleeding was red, then it turned to a pink-ish tinge and then slightly brown before dissapearing all together.
My CP is still high, hard and closed and I don't know what this mean- I'm actually quite worried. My periods are ALWAYS on time (apart from when BF and I first started TTC) and I can pin point my CP to a tea (usually). Though I have only been checking my CP for 2 cycles, I am one of these people who are VERY familiar with their bodies, so regardless of if I knew what I was actually looking for, and knowing the meaning behind any of the cervical positions, I am still 100% sure that I have never felt it like this before.
Anyone got any insight for me, please?
Thank you in advance.

My personally experience is the cervix can be high & hard right until the day you bleed – You can’t use this as a reliable source for pregnancy.

8dpo & spotting could indicate an implantation bleed.

Although most think we are familiar to our bodies one thing can mean 5 things and is more a note than a reliable way of detecting pregnancy as mentioned above. Problem with this in mind is you can an many of us do start paying attention to things about our body that we did not before TTC so it is really hard to tell.

You only true reliable source is a test.

What day are you on in your cycle – How many days is your cycle?

Hello

Well after Ovulation, typically your CP changes from High, Soft and open to
Low, Closed and Hard. So by your cervix being high, it can potentially be an indication of pregnancy - However it may just be slowly returning to its low position. What you don't say is what Day of your cycle you are on and when AF would normally be due, so its hard to say exactly what your CP should be right now?

Hey guys. Well im on cd 26, I am 12 DPO and I usually have a 30 day cycle. I am so confused, I just dont know what to think! It was the bleedin that totally threw me off, I have never had it before.

Like Charl said the bleeding sounds typical of Implantation bleeding, which is quite common....Your high CP is a promising indication of a possible pregnancy, however its not confirmation as your CP may change over the next few days....Like most pregnancy signs/symptoms they can never confirm a pregnancy, just give you a reason to test. You will not know 100% until you to a HPT....But things are definitely sounding good.

Lotsa luck!

does implantation usually occur like that though? I mean from what I have read online, the bleeding is normally noticable when the woman wipes after using the toilet. There has only been one case that I have read so far, where a woman has had bleeding the same as me- Im concerned I may have cut myself or something. Thanks for the replies ladies.

Hiya hun

How would you have cut yourself?

Implantation after you have ovulated & 8dpo could be quite promising although I wouldn't use that as confirmation until you have done a HPT

Good luck when you test

I've had implantation bleeding before that I only saw when wiping or from checking CP, so that is not uncomon at all. I had pinky red bleeding which was very minimal.
I would say 8 DPO is quite usual to have implantation bleeding as implantation averages at 7-10DOP.

I have been obsessing about the position of my cervix so I have been feeling it no end and I have long nails. Mind you, they're not exactly sharp, they're kinda blunt. Some other people I spoke to claimed I may have cut myself and thats why I was bleeding- I have never had bleeding before apart from when Im on my period and to be honest with you, Im frightened. I know that sounds immature but I really am quite scared. If this test is negative, I will be panicking no end!
