8dp5dt - too late for spotting to be a good thing?

[McQueeny]

Hi all.

I’m currently 8dp5dt (fresh), and have had light spotting all day. I’ve never before had spotting during the 2WW, even when I got my one BFP. I know implantation bleeding is a thing, but isn’t 8dp a bit late for that?

I’ve never got my period while still on progesterone either - every BFN I always had to come off meds to get a bleed.

So don’t know what to think - I know the answer is to wait for OTD, but any thoughts or encouragement would be great 😬 xx

Aww thanks 😊 xx

Wishing you all the best. It could just be the drugs, I know people get spotting before BFPs. When I got spotting it was before a BFN but it doesn't seem to indicate either way! xo

Thank you 😊 x

Hi lovely, sorry I don’t know if you are getting red or Brown spotting but during my 2ww I had brown spotting the night before and slight cramps he night before my test day, woke up still there and got a positive. It really puzzled me but when I asked the hospital they maintained it was implantation bleeding so fingers crossed xx

Ok, thank you! Pink / brown… I guess I just need to wait and see… thank you xx

I've never had spotting but a good friend of mine had what she thought was a full on period with clots and bright red blood that arrived a few days early...next month no period and a pregnancy tests said not pregnant...2 weeks later still no period but a positive pregnancy test! She got her official results and a scan about a week and a half later to find out she was 12 weeks along! She was shocked because of the heavy period! 😱 That heavy period with clots was implantation bleeding for her...so spotting comes in all forms!! You're still in with a chance! I don't think bleeding means anything good or bad until you get that test on test day! Good luck!! 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

Oh wow! What a story… Thanks so much 😊🤞🤞 xx

Heavier and bright red bleeding this morning…. So not looking good, but fingers crossed you’re right and everything’s possible 🤞🤞🤞😥

I had spotting at 7 days. Pink and brown and now I’m 15 weeks pregnant with twins. Good luck 🤞

[McQueeny in reply to D38813]

Congrats that’s wonderful Thanks so much - but full blown bleeding this morning, so looks like an early period. I reckon we’re out for this one. Try again…. 🙏🤞

It could be left over blood, from implantation bleeding.

I had some brownish spotting at 5 weeks. My nurse said spotting is really common with IVF.

Got everything crossed for you xx

Thanks so much, but full on bleeding this morning so looks like an early period. Think we’re out for this one…. 😥

I had spotting on days 7 and 8 post transfer and now 23 weeks pregnant, so it’s definitely not too late. I thought that was right when implantation bleeding was supposed to happen? Mine was pink/brown, very light spotting but regular for 2 days.

Sounds like good news to me. Wishing you all the best.

[McQueeny in reply to thetallgirl]

I thought implantation bleeding was normally more like 3-5 days after transfer - but I may we’ll be wrong!

Anyway, Thanks so much, but full on bleeding this morning so it looks like an early period. Think we’re out for this one…. 😥
