grrrr af a week early!!??

[Carolina]

i had some brown spotting last night and got excited thatit was implantation because its way too early for af.im so annoyed and upset af came this morning a week early this has never happened to me ever! Its not as heavy as normal and most of it has been brown but its been red this evening and ive had to use 2 pads today it couldnt be implantation could it?ive had bad cramps too! Just wasnt mentally prepared for it and i bd every day for 2 weeks. (my ticker is one day faster than it should be).

This means i got af on cycle day 25 instead of day 32 or 33!!!

With that amount of bleeding and with it being red I would think that it's your AF and not implantation, sorry to say that . I know that when I came off BCP my cycle days went from 28 to 24 for no apparent reason, shocked me the first month!

 

[Carolina]

this is my fourth month of bcp now my cycle had gone from 27 to 30 then 32 then 32 now way earlier dont know whats going on!

i'm sorry to hear you got af. at least with a shorter cycle you have less time to wait for next o. gl for next month.

 

[Vickie]

Your body could still be adjusting to being off the pills? Maybe?? I'm not really sure, if they continue to be irregular though I think I'd talk to my gyno about it, just to set my mind at ease.

 

[Carolina]

my doctor did bloods during the week to see if i am ovulating. i used opks this month from day 10 and always got a negative, so im worried im not even ovulating maybe i ovulated really early because my cycle was so much shorter and i wouldnt have baby danced at the right time!

 

[Vickie]

It is possible you ovulated earlier than you expected, it's so hard when your cycles aren't regular to know when you ovulate isn't it? for next month

 

[Carolina]

thanks vickie! yeah its really difficult adn i drink a loads and usually need to pee every hour so i find it really difficult to hold the pee in for 2 hours everyday so i can do an opk!...the things we have to do

 

[Carolina]

its definately af the bleeding had got very heavy and 10 clots judt came out when i went to the toilet! as my af is a week early is it possible im having an early miscarriage?

 

[mommyandbaby]

Could be a chemical pregnancy, But I really don't know if you will have clots with one. Ive had a chemical and it just was like a period but heavier no clots though & it came at the time I was due for AF But I did have a Positive pregnancy test before then. Um, Usually a chemical will happen the day AF is due so it makes woman think that they wern't ever pregnant because there period had shown up. When woman like us POAS before AF is due and get a positive we know were pregnant then all the sudden we bleed when the day our AF is due. Resulting in a Chemical Pregnancy. (Chemical pregnancy is were you are pregnant but the baby never inplant's or doesn't implants right so when the AF is around the lining of the uterus begins to shed like normal.
You can have blood clots during AF and it doesn't necessary mean anything. Sometimes you will never get them and sometimes you will "It can be completely new to you" It is normal as long as there not bigger than I think a quarter. If you are having to much pain with it I would go to the ER or to your doctors do to it could be Endometrioses. Witch I might have but still haven't been tested yet.
A miscarriage (Miscarriage is were your farther along) And you might have to have meds to completely expel the baby or have a D&C.

I think anyways I'm not 100% sure on everything but if I remember correctly that's how it goes. I hope that helped a lil bit.
It is possible that your AF arrived early & I'm sorry. Hopefully you will find out your pregnant as a X-mas gift or late x-mas gift..
{{{Hugs}}}
Keep us posted..

 

[Carolina]

thanks, yeah im waitning to get tested for endometriosis as id o get clots and pain but usually not so many in one go!

 

[mommyandbaby]

Yeah you should probably talk to your doctor about it. It can cause heavy heavy bleeding blood clots & pain, and the pain can be sever even a week before AF is due. Also can cause irregular bleeding through the cycle.
So, you should most def talk to your DR about it.
I really need to get the balls to get tested. I'm afraid to have surgery.

 

[Carolina]

ive been waiting to see a gyno baecuse in the uk you have to see a gyno first who then refers you to get the surgery. As its the national health service im having to wait a while! Surgery is scary but it will be good to know if thats whats casuing my pain and heavy bleeding...hopefull i will get a bf p before then and not have to go theough with it!...Hopefully it will be the same for you!

 

[mommyandbaby]

Yeah no kidding. I'm so scared to even have an C-section!..
I'm afraid I wont be druged up enough and I'm going to feel everything. Not only that the Spinal looks like it hurts like you know what..
I hope you get BFP soon like I said Hopefully you will find out your pregnant at the end of December maybe earlier.

the body does strange things!! i think i'm in the same boat after coming off bcp in Sept 07. My first cycle was 36 days then 26 and now i'm on day cd29, keep doing pregnancy tests but they are all BFN so know i'm just waiting for AF to finally arrive

 

[Carolina]

loopylew thanks thats made me feel a bit better! have u been testing for ovulation? my af this morining flooded out of me thru a nightime pad thru my pants and soo much came out byt the time i got to the toilet and on the toilet (sorry tmi). My periods werent this heavy on the pill (but they were heavy) i think maybe they were like this before i went on bcp but that was about 8/9 years ago so its hard to remember!

 

[loopylew]

No not been testing for ovulation just been going by tickers etc but without a regular AF i suppose thats a bit useless, been trying to monitor CM but it looks similiar to me, i didn't think i ovulated when my ticker says i did this month though and thought it was later so i should've expected AF to be later. Just waiting for AF to arrive or a BFP, hopefully the latter. MY periods have been lighter of the pill which is odd, used to get clots (tmi) on the pill now i don't and they are shorter.

 

[Carolina]

that is weird because bcp is mean to lighten them! I used opks this month every day from day 10 so i either didnt ovulate or i ovulated earlier than day 10 (which is possible as af came so early)! Good luck let me know how you get on!!

 

[justme00]

That's why I am starting my bding now at CD6. Not gnna miss a chance! OH is surely not complaining.

We'll all be in it together girls!!
