Were you expecting a miscarriage, since you had had what you thought was a period? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1156600 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 18:21:31 +0000 mrskoloa 1156600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CakeLady: From what I've read, either you had implantation bleeding, or breakthrough bleeding, or maybe a period and a fever! I'm really curious to hear back what your doctor says. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1156448 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:49:20 +0000 MCD919 1156448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had what I thought was a regular period... Then I took an opk on day 8 &amp; it was super positive. Thought that was weird, so I tested &amp; got a bfp. I ended up miscarrying a week later :( I hope your story is better than mine &amp; u have a sticky bfp!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1156428 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 17:44:23 +0000 CakeLady 1156428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am actually dealing with this situation today. AF showed up this past Saturday (10 dpo) lasted 4 days with some spotting yesterday - but my temps were still really high this morning (16dpo) so I POAS and there was a squinter. I'm not feeling too hopeful though... Going to the doctor tomorrow morning to see what's what. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1156059 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 15:53:09 +0000 mrskoloa 1156059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBehr: how interesting! I'm assuming it was dry when you took it out. My tampon has some blood on it. I have to change in a few hours; I'm hoping the bleeding will subside! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1156031 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 15:43:51 +0000 mrskoloa 1156031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@RLCeigh: I totally check when I wipe, then I either breathe a sigh of relief, or say, "oh shit." I'm pretty bummed right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155959 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 15:20:46 +0000 MamaBehr 1155959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskoloa: It was in for a long time and it hurt to take off if I remember correctly. But I was so convinced that I was going to be getting AF. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155864 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:54:21 +0000 RLCeigh 1155864@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrskoloa- I'm sched to test the same day as you , its the day AF is due.<br /> So I just went to the bathroom and this is about the time when my crazies start and I (totally TMI!) check when I wipe for spotting. Like a few checks :)<br /> And today I just saw light pink type spotting. So I think I'm out this month, but maybe I can be hopeful until AF actually shows!<br /> But now I want to drink all of my water bottle so I can go to the ladies room again. My co-workers are going to think I am nuts! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155850 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:51:19 +0000 cascademom 1155850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a friable cervix at the very beginning of my pregnancy. It caused some bleeding. I had a quick ultrasound at the OB's at 7 weeks where I saw my little jumping bean. I had some bleeding later in pregnancy as a result of infections. I pushed for tests and found out I had BV and a yeast infection. With BV, I pushed for more testing to be sure it was clear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155839 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:46:23 +0000 mrskoloa 1155839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBehr: Was there blood on your tampon? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155836 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:45:46 +0000 MamaBehr 1155836@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskoloa: Me! With this current pregnancy I was so convinced AF was coming that I had a tampon in the day before my BFP and I was drinking wine the night I finally decided to take the test (terrible I know, but I was sooo convinced that I wasn't pregnant!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155831 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:43:54 +0000 mrskoloa 1155831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: @Bao: A spark of hope has been planted! I am experiencing a small amount of bleeding, but it is coupled with a cramping feeling in my right ovary area. I am slated to test on Saturday, and this is when my period would have showed. It could be anything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155802 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:34:35 +0000 Bao 1155802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, I had actual bleeding. No idea why I tested! I think because it would come and go, which was strange for me. I'm 18 weeks now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155769 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:23:31 +0000 littlek 1155769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I already had my BFP, but starting around the time I would have had my next period, I would have light spotting for a day. It happened my entire first trimester. OB said it was "breakthrough" bleeding. I also had one other event where I had a very heavy flow, but the doctor thinks I was pregnant with twins and lost one early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bleedingspotting-but-still-got-bfp#post-1155760 Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:20:05 +0000 mrskoloa 1155760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone had bleeding or spotting, thought it was their period, but ended up having a BFP? I'm hoping to prolong my wishful thinking a couple more days.</p> <p>Update: I used a tampon and it is not "full"; the blood on it is dark brown and old-looking </p>
