Well we started trying for a baby last month. I had my period at the end of January so it was around mid Feb that we did the deed.

My period (28 Feb) was late and I had a very mild period, for only 2 days and then stopped. I did 2 tests before the spotting but negative and then 2 tests after (2 days after) and still negative. I find it strange, as my periods are usually heavy and last up to 4 days.

With my first, I did get implantation bleeding and tested immediately afterwards and was positive. The digital test appeared in less than 30 sec. I can accept that I am not pregnant this time, but find it odd that my period was so light and so short.... which has never happened to me.

I've gone and spent a lot of money on these preg tests so we will try again in 14 days time during ovulation and take it from there. I'm probably thinking too much into this, but maybe I do not have enough of the hormone HCG.

Thanks..:)

Try again in a few days, you may have ovulated later this cycle and the bleeding may be down to implantation and a positive result will be later. Have fingers crossed for you and hopefully it is not a rogue cycle for you

Hi Seashells

Thanks, how's it going for you?

Ccole - I am also getting wierd twinges on my right side, sometimes they are like a pulling/stinging.... I think I got them with my first too. It feels like something is moving under there - hard to explain.

🙁 have started bleeding again, so don't know what is going on. I am probably Not !!

So now I don't know when to start counting for ovulation or should i just buy one of those ovulation kits.

My wife works for the in a contraception and sexual health clinic and I know she would suggest paying you local clinic a visit even if is is for a chat and some advice, these people are very skilled in all areas of contraception and also the flip side conceving.

Good Luck

Hi Jason

Thanks. I might just do that, it would be probably the family planning clinic which runs at my doctors.

Hi! We've been trying for years! We go through phases, sometimes trying really hard and other months just going with the flow. 🙂 I've found ovulation kits to be pretty useless by the way! They've never given me accurate results!

Still got my fingers crossed you get your positive result asap!

Just found out through a preg test - two actually - Clear Blue original and Digital yesterday (20 April) that I am PREGNANT - over 5 weeks.

I have had a period over a month ago which must have been implantation bleeding.

We decided to stop trying but its all a shock and just sinking in now.!!!
