I hope you get some answers and can relax soon!</p> <p>If it makes you feel any better, when I got my :bfp: I had mid cycle spotting, our BD timing was terrible, and my temps were so funky FF couldn't even pinpoint ovulation. So don't lose hope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203641 Fri, 08 Nov 2013 00:24:53 +0000 deactivated_account 1203641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit: I'm so sorry about your stress. :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203552 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 22:42:01 +0000 Littlebit 1203552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chibee: Yes, I think you hit the nail on the head. I've been really stressed the past few weeks. We had a vacation and my husband and I have been having quite a bit of shaky relationship stuff going on.</p> <p>@stratosphere: I'm so sorry you're going through something similar! It does make me feel a little less like a freak to know that someone else is having similar problems..I hope this clears up for both of us, because it's so stressful!! Good luck on your testing..I'll be crossing my fingers for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203364 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 21:21:58 +0000 stratosphere 1203364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebit: I know exactly what you mean! My cycle this month has been crazy too! I started bleeding the day of O and have bled every single day since then except for one! And no BDing since day before O. It's spotting (need a liner, but not a pad at all) but it's been everything from bright red to very dark red/maroon, to brick/brown and often is just part of CM. SOOOO weird! I've had spotting before but nothing like this. Tomorrow I'm 10 DPO so will probably do a FRER, even though all this spotting makes me think I'm out this month. </p> <p>Hang in there, and know you're not alone in the wacky cycle business! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203328 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 21:00:10 +0000 chibee 1203328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you been super stressed? I remember this one particularly stressful month, my ovulation was SUPER delayed and even then, i had 4 days of positive OPKs which was really unusual for me (i always get 2 days) and then my temp post-o was not as high as it usually was. It was weird. But it was a month when DH and i were fighting a ton and i think it really delayed my o a lot and i didn't have a "good" ovulation that month. Stress can really have an affect on your body, which is annoying because ttc itself is stressful - it's a vicious circle!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203233 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 20:12:26 +0000 Littlebit 1203233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NorCalWayfarer: @MrsMcD: @Mrs.Someone: My last real AF was 2 weeks ago. I'm halfway through this cycle...I did take a HPT the other day, thinking maybe it could be that, but it was a wondfo, and a stark white negative. </p> <p>I guess it's worth taking a FRER though. If I still have a positive OPK tomorrow morning, I'll do a FRER also. What the heck. I've wasted them on worse things.</p> <p>Thanks for the support ladies. I don't know whats going on, but I can't do anything but try to stay calm and see what happens?? :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203074 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 18:46:14 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1203074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When was your last real AF? Any chance that could've been implantation and a bfp? Wouldn't hurt to test... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203061 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 18:37:28 +0000 deactivated_account 1203061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NorCalWayfarer: I don't know anything about temps. But I do think that there is no harm in taking an HPT. I've done it more times than I can to admit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1203002 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 18:09:49 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 1203002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: I was actually thinking about that -- @Littlebit: have you taken a HPT? Didn't @CakeLady have bleeding but elevated temps and get a BFP? Ive heard you can get positives on OPKs when its a positive on HPTs....</p> <p>And yes this TTC/maybe pregnant business is driving me insane... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1202987 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 17:59:04 +0000 deactivated_account 1202987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Gees... I have no advice at all! I know that TTC is such a crazy time. And its so hard to try to intrept what's going on in our bodies. I am crazy.. but sometimes I think I could be like 5 months pregnant even though i've had AF and negative tests for 5 months. I hope you figure out whats going on, or you just get over it. Sometimes there's no way to know whats going on!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1202976 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 17:55:44 +0000 dc yoga bee 1202976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>((hugs)) No advice, but FX still crossed for you to get answers, and your BFP soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1202965 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 17:50:39 +0000 NorCalWayfarer 1202965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No advice, but hang in their lady! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1202958 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 17:47:35 +0000 mlm2934 1202958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry, this TTC stuff can make us feel crazy!!! Last time I used OPKs (I skipped them this month), I got 3 days of positives, so just to say it happens sometimes... Although I'm not sure what it all means. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1202948 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 17:43:17 +0000 Thenetexan 1202948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On my last successful cycle, it was crazy. I came off a short cycle, which I never have. Then I got the flashing smiley early, like it was going to be a short cycle. But then I had a flashing smiley for 5 days in a row and finally got the solid smiley. It was frustrating, but somehow I actually got pregnant that month. Hang in there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4-days-of-spotting-and-3-days-of-opk-stressed#post-1202922 Thu, 07 Nov 2013 17:31:52 +0000 Littlebit 1202922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm stressing. This has been the cycle from hell. This is my 5th cycle trying, and it's been so weird. Crazy temps, no CM, 4 days of spotting (dark spotting - not red), and I'm now on my 3rd day of positive OPKs. I don't know what is going on with my body! I've had 4 previous cycles that were all great...this is my first time ever spotting mid cycle, and my first time having 3 positive tests. I normally have two days of positive. And they aren't 'hm, I wonder if this is positive?' They are BLARINGLY positive. At first I thought the spotting was from some over zealous BDing (lol, sorry) but 4 days of it?? Not likely. </p> <p>Any ideas or suggestions on what's happening with me? I just feel like crying. This cycle has been such a disaster, and I feel like its a total wash now. I am so bummed! </p>
