Incredibly confused??HELP!!

OK, my LMP was May 31st-June 9th but I spotted on the 10th... I spotted and had cramping on my right side on June 18th and 19th so I assume that is when I O'd. I tend to have 10-14 day AF's and an average of 37 day cycles over the past year. On July 1st DH and I BD'd and he hit my cervix and I spotted that day just a little. The following day, July 2nd, I had a small streak of blood in my panties. Nothing after that until July 5th when I wiped and noticed a pinkish red tingle on the tp...this lasted all day I think. Since then NOTHING! I normally spot off and on the week before I get AF but other than these cases I haven't had nothing. I have been cramping off and onsince I O'd. The cramps are like the feeling when you are getting your reflexes checked...after they hit your knee with the hammer dealy. It feels like that in my back and my abdomen area. Today I am having AF cramping but I don't cramp when i get my AF. Other than weight flucuation and my sleeping patterns there aren't really any symptoms. My weight has be flucuating between 160-165 all week...up and down. Then with my sleeping habits I am tired by 6-7 PM if not outcold on the couch....I got up about 6:30 yesterday morning and I was outcold on the couch by 7:30. DH woke me up at 9:30 and took me to bed. I slept til 2...woke up...went to the bathroom...went back to bed...woke up at 3:30...went to the bathroom...went back to bed but couldn't sleep...I was wide awake. I tried to go back to sleep for an hour and finally gave up and got up at 4:30Am. It has been like this all week. What do you think all this means? I took an HPT last week and it was -.Please help me understand all this...I have been reading stuff and according to a pregnancy calc I would 6 weeks today if I were but am I? Does any of this sound like you? Sorry so long. TIA, Tasha

That's why these message boards are here. Don't feel silly if it weren't for people asking questions no one like me would have anything to do all day.

Ok, so I took a test very early this morning with FMU. Of course the control line turned up immediately. There is no evap at all...all there is is the dark control line and a possibly there test line...it is there but it looks like its not even there type of test line. Its like a shadow line...lol. Its a dallar tree test and I have had it for a few months...it was my last one so i think that I may retest. Any ideas on a better test to try than Dollar Tree?? And should I wait another week just to be sure that AF doesn't come? I was cramping pretty good yesterday and somewhat so far today. I was really emotional last night too...we were suppose to go take a look at a PUG and our ride fell through so I cried aboutt hat then my DH got upset with me for chewing him out and I cried even more about that...then I was just crying to be crying I guess....lol...not sure if I am weepy when I am ready to start or not...never really paid much attention to that part of it.

If this was me I would take another test. It sounds like the postive line was trying to come threw. But if there isn't much hormone in your system yet it will be a very faint line. You can try EPT or any of the other. Maybe a digital. There always fun when you actually see the word preg. Let us know. Good luck. Tracy

Ok, so I am still cramping slightly...nothing major. I haven't gotten any more tests so I haven't retested yet. Still nothing on the AF front. I am bloated though...its more like a heavy feeling in my lower abdominal area. Its weird b/c I have lost another lb but I feel like I am fatter than I was. My breasts don't whurt and they look bigger to me but not sure if that is actual swelling or just my imagination. My appetite has gotten smaller. I have become very forgetful too...this is horrible cause I am normally very organized. Shoot...I had a ? but now I can't think of it....been sitting here trying to remember what it was...it was the whole point of me posting....LOL. Ok, this isn't the question I had but I was just reading about cervical position when you are ovulating...its suppose to be low and open...ok, if you read my prior post...I spotted June 18 and 19. Then DH and I BD'd on July 1st and he hit my cervix with it and I started spotting for the day and then spotted the following day....it stopped and then I spotted again on July 5th. Since my cervix was low enough to be hit with it...think that I ovulated around there rather than the 18/19th like I thought? If so, what would cause the spotting on the 18/19th of June? And why did I not spot again until the 5th of July? Or maybe I just O'd on the 5th and the spotting on the 1st and 2nd was just from him ihtting my cervix? And if I o'd on July 5th...shouldn't I have started by now??? Today would be 18 DPO...What do you think????

ok, I knew that I would remember after I posted....my question was about discharge...I naturally have a discharge that they never figured why....since I was little...but here lately it has gotten to be a really heavy discharge and its kinda dark to where it stains my panties to the point that I have to wear a pantyliner. Is that a sign or has anyone else experienced this? I also noticed that it reads taht the cervix is low after ovulation not during...aHHH...can someone explain this cervical position stuff...the more I read the more confused I get...since July 1st was the only day since my LMP does that mean that I already o'd? Am I actually late or is it in my head? HELP
