Light/Moderate bleeding for 4 days and now sensitive nipples? HELP!

[ttc4number1]

Usually my cycle is anywhere from 28-39 days (mostly around 33-34). Well this cycle I began spotting on CD 26 and it was only noticeable when I wiped (brown and pink)...the first 3 days of bleeding was a very light flow (normally my flows are VERY heavy right off the bat with lots of clots) and the last day was moderate. Looked like a regular period (red and a couple of clots) but things just seemed weird. It wasn't near as heavy as it usually is and not near as clotty as it usually is. Ive only been actively TTC for 3 months. Now today, 4 days later, my nipples are sensitive when I touch them which isn't very normal, but I also don't know if I'm "looking for signs". If I did conceive, the spotting would've started at 3DPO....Has anyone had a BFP with this or should I count it as AF? I know I should just take a test, but I tend to play the waiting game. So please don't reply with that, haha! HELPPPPPPP!

If that is implantation bleeding it won't start until 7-10 DPO...You only count it as AF if you bleed enough to need a pad or tampon every day...I have never spotted before AF until a few months I turned 30 and AF has been lighter and shorter since then...I HTH

I feel like I have been going through the same thing...last period was a little different...i wasn't as crampy, my period was going for 3-4 days, but it didn't seem as heavy...also since the day my period ended my breasts have been SOOOO sore and tender to the touch...I remember on 10dpo last cycle, before what i think was my period, I had a brown discharge when I wiped also...I haven't tested since all of this though because I feel like i will just be let down...i am currently about 6dpo this cycle and am so anxious but I am trying to not get my hopes up yet...do you have any other signs right now?

That's really about my only sign. The sensitive nipples. I did wear a tampon every day during what I thought to be my period and changed it about 3 times a day, each time it would only be about 1/4 full. Which usually when I'm on my period, I leak through. I almost feel like if I didn't have the tampon in, not much would've came out on the pad.

I felt very similar. I've been debating whether or not to test just for the heck of it or wait until next week when AF is due again.

I have the same issues . I have a very long cycle 50-60 days sometimes. My dr said good chance I am not ovulating and am suppose to start clomid next cycle which won't start till possible first week of October. Here is the issue though my last cycle was 100% different! I spotted 2 weeks before "AF" started and I have never had that and usually I have horribly sore boobs 2 weeks before AF and nothing this cyle. I started AF out of nowhere 2 weeks exact after the spotting or possible ovulation date. AF was so light I didn't even use a tampon! It is now CD27 and it went from just sore nipples to sore breasts and nipples. I have small zit like bumps on my areola, I have never seen these before. I have had naseusness, dizzy ness. Hot flashes at night, breast are sore and swollen and hot. So many more symptoms but have had a PFN and a negative blood test at about 3 weeks Po. Now I would be in week 6 is there any chance I am not crazy with what I'm feeling? Anyone else experience this?

Thanks

I don't think you're crazy at all... question is, is your body playing games with you? I really hope not. I thought i was pregnant last month until AF came right on time...hopefully this month though! Keep a positive attitude and thinking and it will definitely happen for you!
