Ugh!! So what gives?!?

So my husband and I are trying to have a baby. AF was supposed to come on Thursday, all that came was brown spotting which has continued up until today. I took a test because I heard you can spot the first couple months, well it's coming back negative. So what gives?!? Is this spotting considered my period? Anyone else gone through this?

    Yeah I must say that the spotting is probably you period. I don't know about you but I normally get really heavy periods. Well one month all I did was spot for 3 days and I was convinced I was pregnant. I mean the spotting was so miniscule that I didn't even need a tampon or anything. Well I took a test and it came out negative. Well I went to the doctor and she said that sometimes your hormones can be off and it can cause you to have an extremely light period. So I suggest taking a test and seeing what it says. If you get a negative and your period never really takes off call your doctor. They will be able to give you a blood test to make you feel better.

    It could be your period, b/c implantation bleeding usually occurs before your period is expected.

    But since it was so light, give it a few days and test again with FMU. I have read about women who have bled like a period while pregnant.

    I did spot while pregnant (just lightly, only noticed when I wiped).

    Baby dust!

    PS - try charting your BBT & cervical fluid...check out "Taking Charge of Your fertility", it is a good book for us women TTC.

    I spotted during the first few weeks of my pregnancy. They called it implantation bleeding. However, my preg tests all came out screaming pregnant. Maybe you are just about to start your period.

    If you and your hubby are seriously trying...I would suggest forgetting about it for awhile. I know you hate to hear it but I was the same way. We tried and tried and threw our hands up! We went on vacation a mo. later, I got a little drunk and we had great sex and then 4 weeks later I was preggo. True story..........................

    Okay, here's number 1: DO NOT listen to "Cook K". Sorry to tell you this, but it is unlikely that you're pregnant. It's probably just a light flow before your actual period begins. A lot of women experience this - a brownish, "rusty" looking discharge before their first heavy day.
