Hi everyone
Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else and whether its normal.
I stopped taking the pill at the beginning of may and have had 2 cycles since, one 36 day and one 43 day. My last af was on 23rd July and then on cd13 (5th Aug) i had light bleeding which I still have now. Not sure if it is is af as it is still really light (mostly brown with a tinge of red, sorry TMI) which is not normal for me, but dont know what else it would be. i have never had a bleed this early, even when TTC DD my cycles were between 32-36 days.
Any advice appreciated.
Hi Liz
Not sure if it was an O bleed, it lasted about 3 days all up. Not sure if its 'spotting' either it was on the toilet paper every time i wiped (sorry TMI) but not enough that I would need to use a panty liner or anything.
When you have o spotting is it before, during or after you o?
Thanks for the reply
Apologies if I don't use correct / any acronyms as i'm new to the site I don't usually have any mid-cycle spotting or bleeding but I do have long cycles (35 days plus). in June at the time my temp peaked I had 2-3 days of spotting, like you just on the loo paper and pinkish. Didn't think a lot of it, was more suprised when I got a suspected period about 10-12 days later as it was only day 23 of my cycle. No reason to suspect pregnancy as my temp was all over the place.. Figured it was just a really short cycle and started cycle count again until I got to 42 days last week and carried out a HPG - well 5 actually - all of which were positive!!
Having researched it & asked questions of people since, it seems that spotting at O and then a seemingly short, light bleed at implantation isn't uncommon & that I won't be the first to mistakenly suspect I'd had a period
So I could be wrong and I just had wierd unexplained bleeding (I'll found out if it was an implantation bleed or an actual period when blood test results tell me how far gone I am tomorrrow) but it seems that I had the same as you and it was an O bleed and that I may have conceived at that time..

Hi Liz and healthychick
thanks for the replies. I am thinking that is def af but just really light as it was only 2 wks ago that I had af. I still have light bleeding now so it wouldnt be O bleed and according to ff i havnt o'd anyway. FF hasnt started it as a new cycle tho so I have no idea whether I am now cd 18 or cd 5, will prob just keep temping and see what happens.
Congrats healthychick on the + hpt, keep me posted with how you go tomorrow.
Thanks again
really sounds like me at the moment. Although my cycles aren't usually long. Mine are only usually 25days. I started getting light bleeding friday which is a wk early. My periods are usually pretty heavy but at the moment its hardly anything. So i really no how you feel at the moment. So confusing. Good luck
