What do you all make of this? Sorry it's a bit long but I need to get it all in, so please don't read and run.
I have been pregnant twice before but miscarried both at 5 weeks. With both, I had no implantation bleeding, and got a faint but still relatively clear BFP at 11 dpo. My periods are every 28 days and as regular as clockwork. The most they have ever been out by is 2 days, usually just the 1 day.
This month I've getting strong AF like pains for the past week but I know this can mean either way. Yesterday I was 11dpo and I tested in the morning and got a BFN. At work I started to get strong period-type cramps and that feeling in my lower abdomen like my period was definitely coming on. That afternoon I thought I felt something 'downstairs' and went to loo to find a tiny drop of brown blood on my pants (sorry if tmi!).
I put on a pad and later last night I had a tiny drop of (sorry again if tmi!) brown/yellow (mainly brown) blood but not a lot. I have also had constant period-type pains mainly mild, but the odd time rising to quite painful making me think my full period flow is about to come on. Usually my period starts with red blood and by the next day I have horrendous cramps and a full on heavy flow so this is very unusual!
It has pretty much been the same today. There was no more blood between yesterday and later this morning when I had another few drops of the same pale brown discharge when I wipe and a bit on my sanitary pad. I did a pee on stick test this morning and although I thought it was a BFN, I am not sure if it is 'line eyes' or not, but if I hold it up to the light I am sure there is a very faint line.
I just don't know what to think. Part of me thinks it is just an early, unusual period as the cramping is there like it is a period, but part of me is hoping because of it being 11dpo and blood is brown and light, it might be implantation? Or maybe that's just wishful thinking. I never had this with my previous 2 BFPs but that might be a good or a bad thing.
I'd appreciate your opinions?
