I've been feeling very crampy and period like the past few days and yesterday when I wiped I saw on the TP some yellow-brownish discharge and thought for sure AF was on her way...nothing. Could it have been IB?
FYI ,I could be 17 DPO or 10 DPO...my cycles are off due to my m/c in July TIA!!!!
It varies a lot. For some people, it just looks like brown, "old" blood and is only a few drops. For others, it looks like the first day of their period.
For me, it was enough that I thought my period was starting and I put in a liner, but I didn't need to change it at all. It was dark brown, not pink at all. But everyone is different.
Good luck & lots of !
ETA: Just saw your update... sorry!!! More for next month!!
