Implantation cramping/spotting???

[redrachel22]

So, i have cycles on average of 30 days and a usually ovulate on CD20-CD21 so i started Vitamin B6 on CD1 to try & lengthen LP. (Ovulated CD19 this month)

Now i'm 9DPO and last night woke up at 2am with the worst cramps ever, so bad it kept me awake and i made a docs appointment today. She said it could be anything but as i didn't have any other symptoms i should go back tomorrow morning if still bad and they'd do tests.

Its eased off during the day but still there and i've just been to the loo and noticed a browny tinge when i wiped.

A few questions:

1. Has anyone ever experienced or know of implantation cramping that bad and lasting all day?
2. Has anyone taken Vitamin B6 to lengthen LP but it also brought AF forward a couple of days?

I think i know that this is the beginning of my period but im secretly hoping its implantation spotting as AF not due for a couple of days.

Aaaahhhh, why is this so hard????

Hey

I had the same last month unfortunately, I had cramping a few days before my AF and light red spotting.. I was confident I was pregnant but it ended in a BFN for me But I wasn't taking the vitamins and they ARE symptoms of pregnancy so good luck!! Fingers crossed for you!

Its so annoying, i was feeling really good about this cycle but if this is AF then my LP has gone down to 8 days.

I mentioned this to the docs and asked for advice but she just said "you havent been trying for that long" and "give it time". I tried telling her that it doesnt matter how long i give it, if my LP is only 9 days my egg will never implant! She wasn't very concerned. I know theres a chance and its not impossible but its a slim chamce.

Well, i'll see what tomorrow brings............

I know! I never knew how much of a waiting game this TTC business is!

Good luck! I hope you get your BFP! xo

I've been looking around online to see since i had very similar symptoms about 11 days ago (CD 20) and thought it might have been implantation but took a hpt on 4/17 (8 days past the symptoms) and it was bfn. I've seen on here that some people can experience those things for ovulation as well...? I still haven't had my AF either though so i have no idea, and i'm waiting to see as well! good luck, let us know what happens!

I've read many things about implantation bleeding and cramps, but I'm more confused than ever! lol I think it depends on every woman's body.

What does B6 do for a short luteal phase? I've never heard of that....interesting!

 

[redrachel22]

Vitamin B6 is supposed to increase the progesterone levels i think, which aids ovulation, theres loads online about it. A far as i know, if you have been on the pill for a long time, you can become deficient in vitamin B6 so thats why you might have a short luteal phase. I dont actually know if this corrects itself when the pill is completely out of your system or you need suppliments but its been 8 months for me and my LP is still short.

Ive also heard Angus Cactus legthens LP as well but i dont think you can take that & B6 together so i'm gonna take B6 for another month and see if it improves, if not try it.

AF turned up for me though, the day after all these pains, so now im thinking that these could have been period pains but i have honestly never had pain like that before in my life! Hope that the B6 isn't causing more painful/heavy periods and this doesn't happen every month.

Hows everyone else getting on?

Sorry Agnus Castus, not Angus Cactus!!

darn that witch! I'm still waiting to see if AF will come or not, my situation is a little more complicated since i have no clue when she's supposed to..but it's been 33 days since my last AF started so?? I'll test again on Sunday

Its funny because, I got my AF March, 29th..
I know when i ovulate because i get the pains for it, Ive woken up 3dpo in the middle of the night with the cramps, Nothing..
This morning it happend again..Still nothing. Yours could be implantation bleeding. It can last up to 2 days, so can the bleeding..MILD bleeding, GOOD LUCK!!
