    Question Implantation spotting ? 4 days after transfer

    I am a bit worried and curious. I had a fresh transfer last Tuesday 08/12, I had 2 blast transferred. Today only 4 days after transfer I have a very slight speckled spotting (through the crinone gel), you know I did the finger test shhh... (I am sure I am not alone on this one). I also have felt a kind of tapping or poking under my belly button 2 days after transfer and a little in the last few days. The only other strange thing I have noticed is that I feel really hot and a bit headachey. This is my 10th transfer and I have never had spotting this early before, I usually only get spotting when my period was due. My period is always on the 32nd day ( I have a long cycle). I have never got it earlier or later, not even on my last 9 transfers. I am as my nurse would say clockwork. I also do not have a sore lower back and a hugely bloated stomach as I usually get everytime I get my period. I need some really honest answers
    (I can handle it).
    Firstly has anyone had their period 4 days after a transfer and 6 days before their period was due ?
    Secondly could this be implantation spotting that so many women talk about ?
    Would love a great Xmas for a change. Would really appreciate some honest
    answers - thanks !

    im sorry i dont really know much about transfers etc but there is a chance this could be implantation bleeding (timing fits from experience) when could you test or are you wanting to hold off on the testing? (sorry i cant be of much help!)

    Could be the crinone, it can cause spotting in some people.

    Implantation should happen 1-2 days after a blast transfer, but it still could be implantation bleeding.

    Have you spoken with your nurses? I got horrible build up of the crinone and the nurses recommended that I give myself a gentle "clear out" every couple of days.

    Hope you get some answers soon and good luck

    I had brown speckled spotting through the crinone almost every day.
    But im sorry to say im not sure if it was from implantation or not. Most likely not, but my little embie did latch on.
    Try to relax and not over think, totally hypocritical advise as i was a total nutter the second week of my 2ww.
    Good luck! I hope 10 is your lucky number.
