Not sure if I posted this in the right place. I need some advice. I typically have 32 day cycles. My last period started on 10/18 and lasted for 5 days. I think I ovulated on 11/3 or 11/4 (I don't chart or use OPK's so I'm not 100% positive) My husband and I bd'd on 11/5 and I wasn't expecting my next period until around today. However, I started bleeding on 11/12. It was normal bleeding for one day and then super light for another day and a half. Normally I would think I just started my period early, but that would have been a very light cycle for me. I've also been starving, peeing a lot and felt light-headed the past few mornings. I'm sure I'm just symptom spotting and this is all nothing, but I'd like to know for sure. Is it too early to test? Do I even need to test? I'm new to all of this (we are NTNP) so any opinions welcome!
-
If you're not sure, I would definitely POAS!
-
It's definitely not too early to test if you are right about your O date, and couldn't hurt to give you some answers
-
I would go ahead and test for peace of mind. At this point, if you did ovulate on 11/4 at the latest, then you should get an accurate result (whether negative or positive).
-
can't hurt to try! 11/3 or 11/4 would be two wks ago, so if there's a
you should be able to find out by now
-
Definitely test! Why wonder when you can know?
-
Thanks ladies! I'll run out for a test on my lunch. I think the bleeding just threw me off. Seems too heavy to be implantation bleeding (that's just like spotting, right?) so I just wasn't sure what was going on!
-
Can't hurt to POAS!
-
@mamapeak: my implantation bleeding was quite heavy, test! Good luck
-
Never hurts to test.
-
I would test just to ease the anxiety and have a definite answer. Let us know what you find out!
-
If you are ever thinking you should test, then test!
-
@MrsMcD: haha good advice unless you are me, and think you should test 5 DPO
-
@MrsMcD: this! Although I think us Bees are notorious POAS monsters
When in doubt, test! PS I only read the board title and concluded "yes" before even reading the whole post.
-
@runnerd: Hahahaha. Or me since I think I should test at 3DPO! Bhahahaha. If I had unlimited money, I'd pee on some sort of stick every day, all day long.
-
@NorCalWayfarer: When in doubt, test and then reveal the results on HB.
-
@mamapeak: LOL, the answer to this question on HB is *always* going to be "when in doubt, test!" We're horrible enablers
@NorCalWayfarer: um, me too...
-
That sounds exactly like what happened when I got pregnant! TEST!! (But yes, we are enablers)!
I had bleeding the day I expected my period but it was light pink, didn't increase and the cramps I expected never came. Good Luck! -
@mamapeak: Sooo....when is your lunch?
-
Another vote for test... I tested later than I could have due to weird cycles. I understand being nervous to test!
-
So...I'm starting to think I should test! Lol
I'll be sure to update in the morning!
-
@mamapeak: THE MORNING!!!???? Woman we can't wait that long. Go pee! Now!
-
@mamapeak: Yay! I love a good POAS enabling thread!
-
@spaniellove: we're terrible, seriously. But I do love it, especially when the answer is good news
-
@mamapeak: You don't need to wait till morning. You just need to hold for say 2 - 3 hours.
-
@mamapeak: You can not make us wait until the morning. I think you are enough dpo if your dates are right, go pee!
-
Test!! (preferably asap so we can all know!)
-
@mamapeak: we'd prefer you to test asap. Thanks!
-
@mamapeak: Hold the phone . . . IN THE MORNING?! Surely you jest! I mean, have you met all of us BFP-Crazy-Lovelies on HB??? PEE MEOW!!!! kthxbai
-
@MsLipGloss: LOL
Update now not tomorrow!
-
Oooh! Looking forward to these results, lady!
-
Test! Always better than wondering. Even if it's BFN, you'll know and can look forward to the next cycle!
-
And, do a digital test, so there's no guessing. You'll feel good knowing FOR SURE.
-
Aah! I'd love to test, but I just had a meeting with the big boss scheduled right over my lunch break. I'm hoping I can still sneak out to the store! Trust me, I will poas asap because you ladies have me all worked up now!
-
Also - if I hold for a few hours, do I drink water? or not? I'm so new to all of this!
-
@mamapeak: Water dilutes the test.
-
@mamapeak: I'd go w FRER bc digitals aren't as sensitive. Although if you're thinking you're probably like 15DPO+ a digital *should* register by then... Good luck!
-
So did u test????
-
@mamapeak: So??
-
Hehe. so?
you should be able to find out by now
When in doubt, test! PS I only read the board title and concluded "yes" before even reading the whole post.
