and figured who better to ask then you ladies! this post will prob be long and confusing theres alot of info.
so this was cycle 7 of TTC for us. ive been using OPKs for the past 4 cycles. taking robitussin/ mucinex and prenatals since the first month. been off BCP since july. My first cycle of ttc i had a small cyst burst on my ovary. and they said they saw another small one but nothing to be worried about.
When i got pregnant with my dd i was on BCP consistenly for 8 yrs or so stopped and was pregnant within my first cycle.
a normal period for me lately has been 3-4 days of brownish spotting 2 days of normal flow and then 3 days of brown spotting
so This month again. i did EVERYTHING right. we BD on the right days, i got my + opk on 1/8 and was the absolute most calm relaxed person around Ovulation i was in disney the most magical relaxing place you can be with a 1.5 yr old! and then on 1/20 i got what looked like pinkish snot (sorry way TMI) and i immediately got my hopes up that it was implantaion bleeding. took a test yesterday and BFN i only had a TINY TINY TINY bit of brown spotting yesterday and today. my AF was "due" 1/20 so im assuming this is just part of my normal monthly AF. What would you think?!?
my other question is... im 25 so is DH. we had absolutely no issues when TTC my dd. would you make the call to the Ob/ GYN now that ive had 7 failed cycles? or do i wait longer? this process is becoming extremely upsetting and heart breaking the joy is being sucked out of it. and im kind of at a dead end and not sure what to do? do i ask them for a SA for my DH? do i ask them for something for me?
I think it can def. be implantation bleeding and since you are now 2 days late that to me is a great sign. I would def. test again since AF is not here yet! As for the second question, I dont think you need to see a Dr. yet. Its only been 7mths of trying and you are young. I think for under 30 you have to wait at least a year before heading to the dr. best of luck I hope this is your month!

Thanks but my only reason im saying im "out" is that my periods normally start with 4 days of spotting. so this seems "normal" know what i mean? i guess ill wait another day or so and see if the full flow shows like it always does im being debbie downer today..
I am 26. DH is 30. We see an RE. I do have PCOS, so that is part of it. But, I do not think your age should have anything to with why yo would or would not see an RE/OBGYN. I say go to the DR. You will easy your mind. Find out if you have a cyst and then proceed with more information.
But, even the most fertile couple will have about a 15% chance each month.
