My period stopped?!? TMI...

[aidensxmomma]

So I got AF on January 11. It started with some light bleeding like it normally does. However, usually within 12 hours this turns into a medium to heavy flow. This time, though, my period seems to have stopped. I had some super light bleeding today, but that's it.

TMI alert - but also by this time in my period, when I go pee, I usually bleed so the toilet water looks completely red. There's not even a drop of blood now.

Does anyone know what the reason for this could be? I really don't think this has ever happened before. I'm absolutely baffled

Have you taken a test?! I would!!

I plan on testing later today. I had a little more bleeding when I woke up after it had stopped for a full day so I'm not sure what to think.

I'll update after I test though.

Fingers crossed for you let us know the outcome! xx

My period stopped too! Last Thursday I had a faint line on a frer (in the time limit) and a couple more faint lines. Then I got my AF half way through the day Saturday. Bled a bit Sunday and Monday and now nothing. 2.5 days when it's usually 6 days. So strange. I haven't tested because I just feel like it can't be possible. Please keep us updated!

But the bleeding stopped again....it was only some spotting early this morning around the time I updated and nothing since. Thinking about calling my doctor. This is so confusing!

That's super confusing and would baffle me!!
How many DPO are you?
Fx!

I honestly have no idea how many DPO I am; I don't chart or use OPKs. So that's definitely added to the confusion. My last period was December 1st, so if this isn't a period, I'm on cd45.

I typically have long cycles, but they've been around 37/38 days the last couple months. I'm thinking I ovulated late, so I'm getting my hopes up that this could be IB.

I called my doctor and they said to give it a few days and see what happens. I'm keeping my fingers tightly crossed! I plan on testing again on January 18 if no AF by then.
