    To Chery
    I went to the restroom again today and there is just a tiny bit of brown. But nothing else. I really do not want to get my hopes up but what are thoughts?

    Hi...
    I was browsing through topics and I found you guys. I totally understand what you are going through right now. I, too, ovulated between the 3rd and 7th. Just yesterday I started getting a light pink discharge with a little brown in it. That is very unusual for me and today(18th) I had a little more. I have already taken about 7 pregnancy tests and they have all been negative. I am distraught over this. My guess is that I'm probably not pregnant because with my other two children I tested positive about a week before my expected period and had no bleeding at all. I know that the waiting is the hardest part about this, but just try. That's all you can do right now. I'm with you... I'm playing the waiting game, too. But soon enough you will know, even if it means going to the doctor for a blood test. Good luck to you. I'd like to hear how it turns out.

    Dear, it's kind of hard to make a diagnosis and/or place your hopes up through the internet. Since you did get help in conceiving, you just might have implantion bleeding, so check out the information in the sites I already posted, and check the 'first trimester' information there. Your chances sound good and I am crossing my fingers for you, more than that, it's up to you and your health, and if you are religious, then include God in this.
    Another site from the Mayo clinic about implantation bleeding is:

    http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/ble...gnancy/PR00087
    I'd also get a test done at the doctor's.

    Waiting and wondering is the hardest part until you know for sure. You too can check out the links posted by me and maybe get a little reassured. I hope things work out for you also! At any rate, keep us posted, and welcome.. I was five months along and the blood test was even negative, so it depends on each one of us as we are different. I did not go to the doctor on purpose, as I was not supposed to get pregnant due to a heart condition, now I have a healthy 29 year old daughter who I'm very proud of.
    P.S. you can start helping yourself by not smoking, drinking, and taking supplemental vitamins just in case... - I'm not implying that you drink or smoke, just a suggestion if you do a little bit...

    Today I woke up to some mild mild cramps. Nothing like before my period and I haven't had anymore really throughout the course of the day. Also, a little bit more pink discharge today. I really want to test but I am not due for AF until Tuesday.

    Please stop stressing yourself out, it's not good for you or the baby if you are.. read a good book, watch a comedy, and think positive, positive, positive - about other things in life also. Good Luck.
    If you would have read some about the first trimester, you'd know that a little spotting is not dangerous, so please calm down. I know it's easier said than done.. but try.

    AF visits again
    Hey everyone, I am also not pregnant, in fact, I've started my period again. My body ceases to confuse me :) but these dissappointments will only make the moment it does happen that much more special. Thanks everyone

    Too bad it didn't happen this time. But 'practice makes perfect'. Good luck in trying again, and keep us posted.

    It turns out that I am not. It is OK though... I have plenty of time to have another baby. Yes, a little disappointed, but I will pull through. Maybe next month! ;)

    It took me from October to January in the 70's, but I finally go there too. My ex hubby was very happy during this time. Don't give up.

    Great books
    In the mean time, I would suggest to everyone that they get " what to expect when you are expecting" and " your pregnancy week by week" These are great books to read, even if you are not yet pregnant. They giev you some insight on pre-pregnancy, and you will be able to be read up on everything for when you do get pregnant. That way everything won't come to you as such a surprise, and you'll have a place to go for every day questions. They are awsome books, timeless advice for all your pregnancies, and also make great presents for friends that have just found out they are expecting. Good luck

    Pregnant?
    I just need advice! PLEASE!
    Hubby and I are Trying to conceive and I had my period on 10/24, I have a 29 day cycle, and we had sex on 11/4 and 11/11 on 11/17 I started spotting, only when I wiped, usually a brown or pink color, that lasted 3.5 days then on the 20th nothing, took a HPT and negative, got what I though was my period on the 22nd but it only lasted 1.5 days and was a little lighter than usual, well today, 11/28 I did another HPT and it was negative again.
    Prior to the "period" my boobs were sore, and I never get that, but now they aren't anymore but I am REALLY tired and have headaches. Do you think I am or not?

    Myth
    Same thing as you all
    I am in the same boat as it sounds like everyone else is. I have taken several pregnancy test all negative. I have all the symptoms and none of the positive *tests that is* I have to wait for my insurance through work to kick in and then it's a blood test for me. If any of you have found any information let me know and I'll do the same... try the ask jeeves web site *implantation bleeding* I found some interesting info through that. Sounds like were all playing the hurry and wait game... OK I think I can be patient a little longer... maybe. I'll keep you all posted if you do the same... maybe we can pool our info and get some answers.

Had sex with my husband.third to fourth day experience a thick yellowish brownish discharge.started to think he was cheating, it had no odour and it disappeared with in two days. Went to the doctor and I had no problems. So I decided to find info about early prenancy. I have been trying to get pregnant for so long I now feel as if it will never happen. I am 34yrs. Got pregnant twice when I was 23yrs and missed carried. I have no children and I am on my last few tries. My husband left me 2days aago and for the first time I really feel as if I am pregnant.I am so happy , not because he has left but because I really think I am pregnant for me. I want to be pregnant so bad , I can afford it I have a great job and this will just complete me. I have a appointntment with my doctor this morning for a pregnancy test pray for me. Pray for me because I don't think I will trust anyone to try to get pregnant again. : :) :confused: :
