Am I???

Dh and I have been ttc since January. My average cycle length is 31-32 days and af usually lasts 4-5 days. On July 6, she showed up and stayed for her usual 4 or 5 days. I did some researching on the internet and found out that I'd be ovulating on the 10th of August so we bd'd on the 7th and the 9th. Then on the 20th of August, I found 2 small drops of blood in my undies. I thought af showed up early. However, it was MUCH lighter (only enough for about 1 pad a day). The next day it was more like a pink stain. I've never had such an unusual period and it only lasted 2 or 3 days. My tummy is bloated and my boobs have exploded. I keep telling myself it's normal pms, since it has been 2 weeks since those last spots of blood. I'm also hungry every 2 hours and I'm craving peanut butter, onions, and chicken. A couple nights ago I had a metallic taste in my mouth and I know that also could be a sign of pregnancy. I don't want to get too excited, but Dh thinks i'm pg. If it was af on the 20th of August then I should expect her to come back on the 20th of September. Am I or aren't I pg? So very confused.

Hello I Hate Candy Corns (so do I, but every halloween I find myself eating them!! ;)


Welcome to the board!


Hmmm...so, on the 20th of August you only had that light light spotting bleeding, which isn't typical for your regular AF, right? Well, if your O day was correct, then I'd say that the timing is probably right for implantation and some women have implantation bleeding. Have you tested yet? Your symptoms sound like pg ones to me... I say
