Abnormal spotting and fluctuating BBTs

ttcat34

Hey ladies! 

 I’m looking for a little insight. I have been spotting for 6 days now (only when I wipe and sometimes a teeny tiny bit on a pantyliner). I’m currently on CD27. It was pink for the 1st two days, then switched to light brown. At first I thought it could be IB because I had a dip in my BBT a couple of days before it started, then my temps rose again. However, CD24-26 my temp dropped again so I assumed AF was coming early. I usually have a 28 day cycle. Just to be sure, I took some HPTs (wonfo) for the past few days and they’ve all been negative. This morning I took my BBT and it’s started going back up again. What the heck!?! Lol! I’m so confused with what to think... I’ve also had very light cramping, but mostly on one side. Usually AF cramps take over my whole lower abdomen. Anyone had any similar experiences? What was your outcome? I’m also open to any interpretation of this craziness. Lol! Thanks, ladies!

QFP. 

@ttcat34 - it is against TOU to ask, even in a roundabout way, if you are pregnant or if we can somehow interpret your signs. We also frown upon one-off posts like this because it clutters up the board. If everyone started their own topic every time they had a weird symptom or cycle we'd never be able to find anything. 

This board has some great resources and some incredibly supportive women, however we ask that you please read through the pinned posts at the top of the forum and intro in the Newbie thread and join in the daily WTO/TWW threads, or ask your questions in the monthly Chart Stalk/Questions thread.

@ttcat34 you temp - that's great, but what does your chart actually look like? When was your actual O date and how long is your LP? When you say your temps dropped and rose again, by how much was each temp change?

No insight can be provided if you don't provide any actual data.

So sorry! I am VERY new to this whole “forum thing” and did not realize I was violating any rules! I find all of these boards very confusing to navigate. In no way did I ask if I was pregnant, but was looking to see if anyone else had any experience with the same type things. So sorry I offended anyone. I will be sure to refrain from posting anything on this site at all just to make sure I’m not violating any more rules that I wasn’t aware of. I also found your reply very rude, but I am sorry for not understanding how this works completely. You could find a better way to correct someone for not understanding how things work here.

@kiki047 was being lovely about it.

I don't see what you are considering to be rude. "What was your outcome?" is literally an indirect ask if we think you're pregnant. The only way you could answer your question is "yes I had a wonky cycle like that once and AF was a week late" or "yes I ended up pregnant", therefore you are asking (even though indirectly!) if you could be pregnant.

All forums have rules, and they are always pinned to be the top threads on the boards so that everyone who visits sees them first.

That’s a bit dramatic. @kiki047 and @inthewoods23 were quite polite and informative. I’m not even sure how they could have been any nicer.

Agreed, I was going to compliment @kiki047 on her reply!

OP, we were all new here once but everyone either read the rules + followed them, or graciously apologized if they didn’t and began participating in this board with no harm no foul. You could’ve ended your reply after your first 3 sentences and we all could’ve moved on. The sarcasm isn’t appreciated.

I still would like my questions answered ☹️
