My Heart!
Advice/Analysis please (AF related)

I went off BCP in June and since then I have had 5 cycles (just started # 6). I have temped/charted 4 of those. Looking back, I noticed that my periods have seemed increasingly lighter each cycle.
This month, I started spotting 7 DPO, but I haven't really experienced any flow. Heavy spotting on Friday (which I entered as light flow on my chart, hence the 8 day LP) but I haven't had to really use a tampon except for piece of mind.
Anyone else have a wonky cycle like this, without a "real" period? Or do you think I jumped the gun and could still have AF? I haven't temped since Friday ( I know, I know... bad Bumpie). I guess I'm just a little confused and starting to stress myself out about WTH is going on.
EDIT: I forgot to add that I tested Sunday morning and got a BFN.

I haven't experienced this but I would say give it a couple more days to see if AF actually starts. If you are still just spotting or the spotting has stopped, i would call the doc.
Good luck mrsmarsh. It feels like forever since I saw you on here! Hope all is well with you.

I had like 3 days of spotting somewhere back like 2 weeks ago-I was sure AF was coming but she didn't, so it didn't mean anything. Not that MY chart is going to make you feel better about it...
Thanks Jen! I have been regularly lurking, but work has been insane leading up to the elections so I haven't posted much. I saw in an earlier post that you were near the tornado touch downs. So glad you are safe!
I was just doing some research on our local elections.
When is your IF piece going to air? Will we be able to see it online anywhere?

Yay! I love hearing about people who make educated voting choices
My IF series will air sometime in mid-November. We always post stories to our website and I will post the link for those Bumpies who want to watch it, but I don't want to seem too AWish.
Not AWish at all, IMO, I'm glad Youngin asked you about it, b/c I've been wondering too. Thanks for the update.

This is the first local election that I get to vote in so I'm pretty excited. I feel like it is a bigger deal then voting for the president in 2008. I just feel like my 1 vote will make a difference in the local area as opposed to the nation. Weird, but eh... lol
I can't wait to see the piece. I didn't realize so much time went into some of the news pieces. It seems like you've been working on it for months now.

I've been wondering about this as well. I can't wait to see it
TTC since 2010
lots of IUIs and 1 IVF all BFNs
FET currently on hold
I want to see it too!
To answer your question. ..I have had a few really light cycles like that since we started TTC. I don't really have an explanation for it. GL with figuring it out!
