Hi ladies - newbie here and hoping to get some opinions from experts
I'm still BFing my 15 1/2 month old son - anywhere from 3-6 times per 24 hour period. He's definitely cutting down. I have not had PPAF yet. Ever since January I've been getting some O-type cramping and EWCM at the same time each month. Last month, 5 days after my last EWCM, I had some brownish-pink discharge, mainly when I wiped, but then it turned dark brown and continued for several hours - didn't even fill a pantiliner and then it was gone.
So this month, on April 5, I had a full day of strong O-type cramping, but it was more like a constant soreness/tenderness that almost felt like pulled muscles in my lower abdomen. Then I started EWCM for a few days, which peaked around the 8th, then dried up. On the 15th I felt some faint phantom-like AF-type cramping (barely noticeable) in the morning, then it stopped and that afternoon I had spotting again when I wiped. However, this was a brighter pink/light red, and was more creamy (sorry TMI). Then it stopped completely - never got any on a pantiliner. I have had a tiny bit of AF-cramping once or twice since then, but that's it.
Could any of you tell me what you think this might be, or what it might mean? DH and I would like to TTC but since I haven't gotten my cycles back I haven't started to temp or chart yet (but I plan to start). Oh, we did BD 2x during the EWCM days.
