Hey ladies, this is my first ever post so forgive me if i'm doing this wrong!
Fiance and I have been using withdrawal exclusively for 5 months now. We are going to actively TTC after our wedding (May), but if we conceive before then it will be OK.
So...to my question...
My LMP was Oct. 18th. I should have ovulated somewhere around the 30th to the 1st. I have been getting ovulation pains for the past 3 months (and 13 days later AF shows), but I didn't feel them this time...that is, until a week later. On Nov. 7th I experienced what felt identical to my ovulation pains in my left side. The next day the pain stopped, but I was checking my CP and I had a small amount of red bleeding. I only saw it when checking my CP; after that it was just light brown mixed in my with discharge. I had one more episode of a very small amount of red bleeding right after fiance & I BD'd 2 days after the first small bleed. A day later the bleeding completely stopped (this was what should have been around 7 dpo's or so).
I am not sure if this was implantation bleeding (though the time was right) because the week I was supposed to ovulate I had a death in my family and I am concerned it pushed my ovulation back a week. This wouldn't explain the bleeding though (unless I experienced ovulation spotting for the first time).
Has anyone gone through anything like this? I took a FRER (the "6 days early kind) at 11dpo and it was negative, so I remain unconvinced that I'm pregnant.
Thoughts would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!
