I am 13 dpo...AF due tomorrow.
So, yesterday all day I was feeling like AF was coming on, plus I was super confused about what my cervix was doing. I couldn't decide if it was creamy or sticky or creamy sticky and I couldn't decide if it was medium or firm or low or high (seemed like the position was changing here and there, think it does that during the day). After checking about 15 times, some of those times being pretty dry when I did it, right before bed I peed and wiped and nothing on the toilet paper...but checked internally and when I pulled out my finger I had the tiniest spot of pink on the tip. Wiped it on toilet paper and it was about the size of an eraser head. So I decided that I should check again, to make sure my cervix was still closed. It was, but again the tiniest spot of pink.
I was and have been really upset because it seems like the day before AF is due, or at least the night before, if I do an internal check I can sometimes find the start of her. So I assumed that is what this was and have been very depressed. I don't know if I should count this as spotting, since I wouldn't have known if I hadn't stuck my finger in there, or what. As you might have seen in another post, I already kind of feel like she's here, because I am cramping lightly and have been for days. Only difference is my sore boobs haven't gone away like they would when AF gets here (and they are even more sore than usual). I know I'm not PG because I have tested with a BFN last night and the day before and the day before. I'm just wondering though, did I maybe cause the spot from checking my cervix too much, or am I spotting early/have a problem/shorter luteal phase than I thought? I posted below how I was gonna be mad if she showed before my luteal phase.

I cried so much last night. Please anyone who might know anything, help.

I wouldn't count that spotting. I would wait and see if it comes full on. It could have been the start of it or your cervix could have gotten irritated.

I would guess irratation...try to stay positive! And if it were me, I won't check anymore in case it is irratating the cervix - you want it to stay very happy and tightly closed =) keep us updated
