Hello,

Just wondered if anyone had ever heard that if you have a period that justs consists of brown blood it probably meant you didn't ovulate properly?

Basically last Monday about 7dpo me and my oh did the deed when he was cleaning up (sorry tmi) there was some pinkish cm with one bit of bright red blood. Oooh maybe implantation I thought, but probably too good to be true. The from thursday I have been having what looks like old brown blood coming out but no red blood. The flow isn't that heavy. But I have given up on it being implantation because it is still going on.

I read on the internet it can be a sigh that it meant I didn't ovulate properly. Has anyone else heard that? Its a bit worrying because I really thought I had this month- it was the first time I had EWCM.

If anyone knows anything I don't your advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.
 
I've no idea, I have heard that brown period means you had a cold.
 
Meaning you have a cold sounds like a huge myth to me (sorry lily28, hope i dont offend u hun!)

All i know is that brown blood means old blood im told? My last period was mostly brown blood only and it was after coming off the pill so im hoping that means that i ovulated this month.
 
which actually I don't at all... thanks for answering though
 
I came off the pill three months ago and have had normal red periods, I'm hoping this isn't some kind of backwards step in terms of my body becoming normal again.
 
Elmo, sorry if this question is a bit personal, but how heavy was your period?
 
What cycle day are you on if your counting from your last period, not this brown one, because its possible to have brown blood in the early stages of pregnancy, have you considered that you could be? I dont mean to get your hopes up?
 
Meaning you have a cold sounds like a huge myth to me (sorry lily28, hope i dont offend u hun!)

Lol no offence, just what girls were talking about in junior high school. I don't believe it either.
 
It could just be old blood left over from your last period or perhaps implantation.

The only way to know if you ovulate for sure is to track your temperature. I don't know if you already do that?
 
Its ok, not much is too personal in here! lol it wasnt very heavy at all really, some days i could not wear a pad (tmi!) i suppose weather it was heavy or not would differ to different people because it depends what you have been used to!
 
true. mine is normally quite heavy. but we shall see. I don't think it can be implantation, don't ask me why I just don't feel pregnant. I really wish I could stop analysing everything about my cycle forget about it all and just fall pregnant. I feel a bit like I'm going mad...
 
Hey girlies - I've have been in kind of the same boat. I think I ovuated on 3rd June and last week I thought I might have had implantation but its still happening so totally confused. Here's what I had (sorry if tmi):

6dpo (Wed) - tiny bit of pink blood when wiping - like a spot of blood
7dpo (Thurs) - nothing
8dpo (Fri) - browny cm
9dpo (Sat) browny cm, more than previous day
10dpo (Sun) browny cm/pinky blood - not a lot, only wore pantyliner
11dpo Mon) pinky/red but watery blood - not alot, still only wore pantyliner
12dpo today - this morning back to browny cm but this pm tiny bit pinky blood, still only wearing a pantyliner.

Other symptoms I have are queasyness, tiredness, was really bloated and gassy 6dpo. Also nipples feel a bit tender. I'm maybe imagining all of these!! :wacko:
