Worried. Can Someone Advise? Is This AF Or Whats Going On?

Lizzyxxx · Nov 18th, 2009, 14:35 PM

Hello. Last Friday the 13th i had some cramps, just like AF, all day but no blood, i was 11DPO on Saturday i took a HPT and it was

I syked myself up to test again on the Monday but i started bleeding...it was AF or so i assume! only 13DPO (usually 15-16). I checked my CP and it was fairly high. Tuesday was particually painful and today i was bleeding but it now has died down to almost nothing...3 days? My AF is always about 6 days...tonight i checked my CP and it it really high, i couldn't reach it almost...what is going on? Is it just hormones up the creek or what?
I am worried! Help would be so good thanks.

It's hard to say I've never spotted or have been pregnant but from what I heard - if it's around the time of AF then it's AF - spotting or implantation is suppose to happen before AF and be light, like brown to light pink spots where you a pantyliner would be fine. I'm not sure though..maybe test in a few days if it stopped?

Also I think the stress of everything ..TTC .. can effect your AF

Hello!

I would first, take another test, just in case! It's possible that you had a light period although preggers - it happens to many.

If you get a BFN then I think you just had a shorter lighter month - it also happens to many!

Your CP should be high now, whether PG or not, because if you are PG you are not fertile, and if you have just had AF you are also not fertile yet.

jus googled this :-the cervix is normally low and hard and slightly open to allow the blood to flow out.

also:- After the bleeding stops the cervix remains low and hard and the os - the opening to the uterus - remains closed. This will change the closer to ovulation you approach.

but of course everyone's different

Yep. But the OP says the bleeding has stopped. She also says during the bleeding it was "fairly high" and now it's so high she can hardly reach it. So it figures that while bleeding it was actually lower than now.

I know how low CP normally is at AF, quite low that when i put a tampon in i feel it touch it but that hasn't happened this time.

Jeez I'm really sorry hun

I just read my posts back and I am spouting a load of nonsense!! Dunno what's wrong with me - would be nice to put it down to preggo brain lol! Probably best to blame it on sleep deprivation though!

Yes your cp should be low - after AF. Between AF and ov or if preggo it can be all over the shop. If yours is high right now then either you're gonna ov soon or it's all over the shop because you're preggo.
