5dp5et - pink spotting 😞

I really need people to be straight up with me. Is it likely I’ve lost my embryo?

I just wiped and saw some blood mixed with discharge. Sorry to be gross. I am absolutely gutted, I was feel so positive this morning. But on the last few hours I started getting some lower backaches... my app says my period would be due tomorrow based on my last bleed.

We only had this good embryo as the other 2 weren’t judged to be good enough to freeze. I am am meant to be working but I am feeling like other crap. 😞

It sounds like implantation is taking place 🤞🏻 Xx Stay positive 😊

I really want to believe that’s true but I am really struggling to be positive at the moment. I don’t have any experience of this... does it stop after a bit or is possible it’ll carry on? It’s taken me by surprise. I am scared to go to the loo now.

I understand how you feel, hopefully it is and we can’t control how our bodies react to it all,,, try to distract yourself as much as possible and keep an eye on it, if it gets to red blood then phone your clinic and tell them incase you need your medication adjusting x stay positive and look after yourself 🤞🏻💟

Thanks Blue for giving me a bit of a plan and a pep talk. I really really appreciate it. xxx

I did go to the loo after that and there was nothing but doesn’t mean to say there’ll be nothing again next time... xx

Exactly 🤞🏻 You’ll be grand I’m sure 😊

Mine has turned into a good flow now, it’s so so scary I’m resting as much as I can but trying to remain positive until OTD x

I’m so sorry, I didn’t even ask where you are on your journey? When is your OTD?

Yeah it is bloody frightening - this 2ww thing is no joke. Ok, in that case let’s try stay positive together! Xxx

Hi Beatrix,

It could be implantation colouring. Are you using vaginal progesterone at night? It's best to ring your clinic I think they might say to wait and see. If your period is due tomorrow then wait and see do you usually get pink spotting before your period? I'm 10dp5det and still waiting to test but I don't think it's worked it's very hard this process but buy yourself your favorite cake or something to help you a little just for today xxxxxx fingers crossed it's implantation for you xx

Beatrix_K in reply to Stardusthope

Thanks stardusthope, I am hoping so. No I use the pessaries, I guess if I am still bleeding later/ tomorrow I’ll call them to see what they say as I’m sure today they’ll just say wait and see.

Good luck with your journey- you’re almost there at least! Xx

Hey how are you today. I also have a pinky texture and I feel so crampy like af is coming I can't bring myself to test tomorrow I just feel like it's all over. Hope you are well 😘

Hey, i’m sorry you’re feeling rubbish today... I’ve been pretty up and down this weekend. Looking back on thurs it was pretty imperceptible but I’ve had either dark brown or pinky spotting for the last couple days. It looked like it had stopped today and then just now I wipe.. and yeah more pink blood. I feel pretty lost tbh.

Cramping has stopped but I am not sure I’ll get to my OTD.

How long have you been spotting? You’re going to be worried and you’re right to be cautious but pls don’t give up hope when you’re so close! I will keep everything crossed for you! Xxx

Hi dear,

I was only spotting twice when I wiped stopped y'day evening. Did home urine test they give you and I got a bfp faint line but won't know for sure until bloods to see if they rise over the next few days xxx best of luck

This is actually a good sign in my opinion. It makes it attached to your lining

Beatrix_K in reply to Lind58

Thanks Lind, I’ve done some quick reading and I am going to try and see it as a positive... but I’d rather it not be here at all. I am analysing every sheet of loo roll now 🙄

Trust me! I understand, I’m on two week wait too and just had a miscarriage in August. This is not an easy journey but we have stay strong and remember there is a plan for us.

Hey hun I am in the same boat 5dp5dt. Had some blood with discharge today and Tuesday. Trying my best to think its implantation as i’m also on Progesterone and Estrogen. 🤞🏻 for you hun, when have they told you to test? X

Beatrix_K profile image
Beatrix_K in reply to Naddy1

Hey Naddy, my husband said he read 1 in 4 of us have bleeding so i am trying to dial back the worry and stress now and like you hope it’s a positive sign.

I got told to test on the 14th aaaaaages away. You?

Also my friend had full bleeding near enough the whole way through her pregnancy and they couldn’t find the cause, she now has a beautiful healthy 6 year old.

Told to test on Monday 9dpt 😬😬😬😬 x

Beatrix_K in reply to Naddy1

Wow that IS scary but what a lovely outcome 😊

Why do we all have different test dates if we’re the same way along?! Anyway you’re so so close!! Eek! I can’t wait to be done with the 2ww!

Naddy1 profile image
Naddy1 in reply to Beatrix_K

I’m not too worried as the bleeding isn’t red and very infrequent.

Lol who knows why they do that. I know and its giving me anxiety thinking about testing as we had a chemical last cycle. Do you have any other plans to take your mind off it? Xx

Beatrix_K in reply to Naddy1

Aw I’m sorry to hear that lovely xx

This whole thing is intense... and doubly hard with lockdown. Nah, no plans. Just work today and catching up with mate (on Zoom, obvs). How are you passing the time? You’re so close! X
