Spotting week before AF every month - anyone else?

[cantwaitforu]

Hi ladies! A lot of you probably don't remember me, but I was a very early member of this thread. I was a perpetual spotter, with an LP of 10 days max. DH and I were referred to a RE after my family doctor did a two month work up of my hormones and DH's SA. Three days later we found out we were pregnant with our son.

During that pregnancy, I had spotting. I was 11 DPO and had light pink spotting, but that was all during that time. Later on, around the time my periods were due, I would spot.

DS is now nearly a year old and we just found out two weeks ago that I'm pregnant with our second - big surprise! But, I wanted to share with all of you that after having DS, my periods returned about 4 months after having him, and I do not spot at all anymore. I am happy I don't spot, but baffled that I always used to and it just stopped!

So, I wish you all lots of beautiful, sparkly baby dust and hope that your BFP is around the corner.

PS - the month I got my first BFP I resigned myself to the fact that it just wasn't going to happen and started thinking about other things, and began just looking forward to our plan B with the specialist. I had also began drinking organic milk and started taking an omega 3. According to my doctor, my hormones were never within the right measurements at the time he montiored them.

Welcome Praying! I hope you get some answers at your appt. I usually spot anywhere from 4-8 DPO. Last month it was 8. The new prenatal vitamin I'm taking has a lot of b6 so I'm hoping it's helping with the spotting.

Chloe, I hope tha scan goes well and your little girl turns!

Good luck with your appt. Yoms.

And good luck to all of us this cycle.

cantwaitforu - Congrats on baby #2! It's a relief to hear that your hormones leveled out after your first born. I'm hoping that is the same for me.

Hi cantwaitforu,

Congratulations on baby 2!! I'm glad to hear things were better after baby 1!
I still need to get to baby 1 first but I've already decided I won't take hormone birth control again!! I'm hoping to have a gap between my pregnancies but knowing what I know about BCP I won't go there again!!

I remember your story when I found this forum. I remember spending about 2 full days reading the whole thread and yours was one of the first to give me hope. Delighted to hear that your sporting stopped I am intrigued to see if that will happen to the rest of us. Congratulations on number 2.

P.s have my scan tomorrow ladies. Keeping everything crossed and doubt I will sleep a wink lol

Cantwaitforu congrats again hun & thanks for popping back!

Dreaming I've got everything crossed for you for tomorrow, keep us updated!

Chloe I really hope your little girl turns, I agree it's a tough decision whether to try turning her or not. C sections are so common now so I'm sure if its gotta be that way then everything will be fine

Oh my goodness Chloe, she's here already? Sorry you had to go through an emergency C section. I hope you and your baby girl are feeling happy and healthy. Congratulations!

 

[KatieTTC]

dreaming, good luck with your scan! Let us know how it went.

cantwait, thank you for the update. I remember getting into your story when I first started reading this thread, it gave me hope. I wondered once in a while if you spotted or had any more children after your first pregnancy. You answered both of those questions Congrats on baby #2

welcome to the thread, praying! I spotted real hard the month I got pregnant. It was almost like my body was cleaning up the house for the new renter to move in. Good luck, hope your bfp arrives soon!

Afm, feeling good, besides constant heartburn, occasional leg cramps and not being able to fit into my shoes. Some of the baby furniture arrived yesterday and it is starting to feel more real. Last week of the second trimester.
