I don't know if this will come up again, but for some reason I don't think my last post actually went to the board. So if it is a repeat, forgive me. My husband and I have been trying to conceive baby#2 since January. In the beginning of March I had an early m/c. The doc told us that we could start trying again once we were ready. For the next two months, I was bleeding every two weeks. On a return visit to the doc, he told me that it was most likely my hormones still getting back to normal. All my tests had come back fine. May, june, and July cycles were normal. However, now it's only ten days after the end, and I've noticed a light statin again. I was hoping that this might be the month, but now this happens. Does anyone know what is wrong with me? Has anyone had this happen before. Any advice?

Hi,

I'm not sure what part of your cycle you are on. But I had some light spotting at ovulation. I have never had mid-cycle spotting before, so it was strange for me. I also had a m/c, in June. My cycles returned right back to normal though. So a stain could be ovulation, implantation or the start of AF. I don't think there is really anything to worry about. Unless it is really worrying you, call your dr office and just ask a nurse. I do this all the time and they are very helpful. I'm sure they get sick of hearing from me, but sometimes little things like this worry you. I'm sure you are okay though. Good luck!

It sounds like you might have some ovulation spotting going on. Not only is this perfectly natural, it's also quite common. Have you been charting your temps - if so, you could confirm that this is O spotting...

Good luck to you!

I started charting at the end of June, when my cycleof started. For the past two months, the temps haven't changed. If they've changed by a half degree, that's it. I don't know if working nights has anything to do with it. Usually when I get home, I go to sleep. When I wake up, I take my temp. I don't get up and move around. I've tried using the home ovulation tests, but I've heard that they're not that great. I don't think I've ever had a dark line that matches the control ever. It never even gets close. I've figured that ovulation for me would occur at thirteen days after my cycle starts. My c/m is usually at that sticky egg white color at that time. I've never had a problem with bleeding, tenderness, or cramping during ovulation. I'm just at a loss at what to do. With baby#1, who is 3 now, it was so easy. It just happened. We planned to have another baby, but now it's really hard.

I had a miscarriage in January and afterwards had two cycles that only lasted two weeks. My doctor said the same as yours- my hormones were getting back to normal. If you are worried about your spotting now, call your doctor. Good luck.
