Trying to Get Pregnant

Should I count this as AF?

Hi I am new to here, I have been lurking for a little while but never posted, as Sept was supposed to be the month DH and I started ttc # 1.  I have not been temping (now I wish I had been) and figured I would take it kinda easy the first couple months of ttc however I have payed a little more attention to my cm as its hard not to when you know what to look for :) Ok, so here is my issue.. I have been off of bc since April, just been relying on condoms and I have been very regular since then with a 28 day cycle. I did try an OPK in Aug and I got a surge. I also have noticed EWCM so I believe that I am Oing. This month I had pms and all of the symptoms that I get when I am actually on my period and I felt like I was on my period at times would have bet money I had definately started. But all I had was a little bit of spotting 3 days after it was supposed to start and I had some bleeding after DH and I BD the day after the spotting. I have POAS twice with BFN both times even though I was not expecting a bfp because we were very good about condoms.  So I guess my question is has this happened to anyone else and should I count it as my period or should I keep expecting af to come? In the meantime DH and I stopped using condoms but I don't know if I should even think that it is possible to get pregnant. I don't want to get my hopes up too much.

Thank you for any help!!

  • I count any flow that is heavy enough to require protection, (tampon, pad) a period..
    Patiently waiting for our 1st since 9/2010.
    Dealing with MFI, good count, good motility, 3% morph-HSG all clear, all other test results came back normal, IUI is our next step
    May 2012- Clomid 50mg + IUI = BFN
    June- Cycle Break
    July- Forced cycle break due to cysts
    August- Femara, Trigger, IUI#2= ?
