Symptoms?? Apologies TMI

[kelsbels88]

Hello lovely ladies...

Just a quick one really has anyone ever had no symptoms but potentially implantation bleeding and still had a BFP?

I am in my 2ww AF due Saturday - but had a drop of blood and a v pale pink discharge when I wiped and then after that a brown discharge. Now obviously I do not want to get my hopes up for fear of disappointment however I have no other symptoms at all although maybe a little more tired than usual. I have seen loads of stories of no symptoms and still getting BFPs just wondered really how many of you may have/ had implantation bleeding?

Thanks in advance

Hey Kelly, don't worry every woman is different when it comes to pregnancy symptoms. Some don't get any at all or others may think PMS as early pregnancy signs. I Didn't get any either, not even the classic morning sickness. Just spotted during implantation though and yet the HPT showed dark red BFP. I know the slightest of variation can trigger panic at 2ww but I really think there's nothing to worry about yet. Sending baby dust!

Thanks Hun for the reply

I’m trying not to get my hopes up but still be positive. Thank you for the advice I will just keep going

Thank you xxx

Good luck Hun! Could be implantation bleeding - I hope so. Got fingers and toes crossed for you xx

This is exciting for you especially if out of your the ordinary! I have looked in to it before and a lot of people get it! I think if it is watery, not red, short and turns back in to clear then it could be. I get it quite often but just before af but it normally gets progressively darker for me. Keep us posted & good luck xx

I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you're ok. Take care xx

[kelsbels88 in reply to Hidden]

I’m not great to be honest x I’m going to test tomorrow just to put my mind at rest as it’s not been constant bleeding but I’m pretty sure we’re out this month xx

[Hidden in reply to kelsbels88]

Hey Oregan_k, how are feeling? Xx

[kelsbels88 in reply to Hidden]

Hi Jo

I’m ok now. Thank you 😊

I’m really sad that it hasn’t happened this month. Someone mentioned to me about writing to the baby (even tho they don’t exist) to tell them how much you want them (meant to be a type of therapy) I tried that I was so emotional on Friday I was willing to try anything.

I find it very hard to keep being positive so im just taking everyday as it comes although not helped by ppl posting announcements on social media so am taking a break from that for a while too.

Thank you for thinking of me 💕

How are things with you? Where are u in your journey? Xx

[Tugsgirl in reply to kelsbels88]

I’ve had announcements on social media to put up with this week too. Talk about bad timing. I’m sorry to hear your cycle hasn’t worked. I know the crushing disappointment. Look after yourself xx

[kelsbels88 in reply to Tugsgirl]

Awww Hun thank you for posting can’t imagine what you’re going through.

They’re just so hard to take and as you said the timing couldn’t have been any worse.

How are you feeling? Hope you’re taking it easy xx sending you hugs xx

[Tugsgirl in reply to kelsbels88]

They are hard. I remember my bfn on the first round.

I’m doing a bit better than I was thank you. Emotions all over the place but that’s to be expected xx

[kelsbels88 in reply to Tugsgirl]

Awww hun sending hugs your way.

I don’t think anyone would expect you to be any different, what you have gone through is really tough. I think you’re very brave and strong. Just take it easy and don’t rush. Here is you ever need a ear xx 💐

[Hidden in reply to Tugsgirl]

I'm sorry you're going through all this again, Tugsgirl. I saw your recent update...I can't imagine how you must be feeling. Take care xx

[Tugsgirl in reply to Hidden]

Thank you both. I appreciate it xx

[Hidden in reply to kelsbels88]

Glad you're feeling a bit better. It's really hard trying to deal with the disappointment every month. It doesn't really get any easier so do whatever you need to do to help yourself when you're feeling low. I started to write down my feelings back in March but never continued with it. It's definitely a cathartic exercise.

You've done the right thing coming off social media; I've been off Facebook for a year now since I had a pregnancy announcement boom. I just couldn't cope with it and I don't miss it. Don't put yourself in a vulnerable position.

I'm good thanks. We're off on holiday tomorrow for a week (I'm ignoring the fact that it coincides with my fertile week and trying not to hope that being away will somehow help!) We've got our IVF consultation on the 8th so it will be nice to have some relaxation time before all that kicks off.

I hope you've managed to enjoy some of your weekend.

Take care xx

[kelsbels88 in reply to Hidden]

Bless you x good luck with next week I hope you have a lovely week 😜

As you said I just don’t want to put myself in a position to be upset every time someone announces a pregnancy it’s not fair to them or to me.

I don’t want people to feel like they need to tiptoe round me. But I have learnt I need to protect my own feelings.

I wish you so much luck keep in touch and let me know how you get on xx

😥 aww lovely take it easy. It's the most crushing thing. Picking ourselves back up each time and trying to be positive. Look after yourself, have a little TLC. I hope you get your BFP soon xxxxxxx

[kelsbels88 in reply to ICSIBaby86]

Awww thank you Hun x I’m a nursery nurse and going to work on Friday was really painful and that was the first time I’ve ever looked at my job as a bad thing. Normally I’m like they will cheer me up I can love them until I get my own but Friday none of that worked. I just wanted to be at home and cry my eyes out.

Thank you, good luck to you too & thank you for the reply xx

[ICSIBaby86 in reply to kelsbels88]

I work in nursery too, I know what you mean I get solace from the little ones. However sometimes it's the hardest job putting your brave face on for them, there's no quiet places in nursery to sneak off for a cry plus you have to be happy and chatty all day ! It's exhausting ! The amount of times I've bottled it up and came home and cried the rain, well I've lost count... I hope your ok xxxxxxxxxxxxx thinking of you xxx

[kelsbels88 in reply to ICSIBaby86]

Thank you Hun I completely understand it all. You do tend to bottle it all up and then have to try and put on that brave face. Im ok just takes me a few days to get my head round it all xxxxxx

[Fredaflintstone in reply to kelsbels88]

Sorry to hear you've not had good news this time. Sending hugs. Hope you're ok xxx

[kelsbels88 in reply to Fredaflintstone]

Hi thank you for your kind words.

I am getting back to being myself the first couple of days with AF are always the worst for me as I have the upset of it not happening and then the pain of the cramps that I suffer with quite badly so now I’m starting to feel better (thankfully).

This is such a tough journey and I think I sometimes say nope other people are suffering worse than I am and I have to remember that, that doesn’t make my journey any less hard or upsetting

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply xx
