You ladies will be sick of me by week's end

I'm 4dp3dt and I'm already a mess and freaking out over every little thing!

OK, I need to ask, is implantation bleeding a real thing or is it just one of those things that we say to keep our hopes up?

I'm asking because I just went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was a light pink streak. I wiped again and there was more. I don't want to "lie" to myself, I'd rather just face facts. Is this implantation bleeding? Irritation from Crinone? Irritation from going to the bathroom every half hour? Or is it the beginning of the end? I don't know if I'm feeling cramps or not. I know that sounds weird, but I don't know what I'm feeling. It feels a little low for AF cramps, but it's definitely a cramp of some sort.

Give it to me straight...

I had what I thought was a little bit of IB around 3-4 dp5dt but I was using Crinone at the time which can be tinged by itself so it was hard to say for sure.

I hope this is a good sign for you, Sweetie. Don't give up yet!

Thank you - I'm trying not to give up, but it's so hard to stay positive during this horrible roller coaster ride!

It is def. a real thing. I had cramps and bleeding.

Again, though it is so hard to know. Will your RE check your progesterone level with your beta? Though it is hard to accurately gauge with supps vs. PIO.

Sorry for all the worry, the 2WW is really hard.

i've had cycles w/ bfp's w/ IB and w/o

i've always done PIO with IVF but when i was on crinone for IUI's it had a gross discharge with pinkish/peachish color.

GL cutie

oh and with crinone i had the worst sore boobs ever

Implantation bleeding is real, but not everyone has it. I had a little at 11dpER. Also, it's very common to have bleeding from irritation if you're on supps. Good luck!

Frankly, it's just too early. If ur not going to poas, u have to just assume everything means nothing.

don't over analyze - if it's a little pink when you wiped, my money is on the crinone irritating your cervix. Don't drive yourself crazy but so far all your symptoms sound promising. good luck sweetie.

This. I never had implantation bleeding with any cycle nor did I have cervical irritation bleeding when did P4 suppositories with IUIs. Unfortunately, I think it's still a bit early to read too much into things. But hoping you have some good news to post here very shortly!

I had some IB 5dp5dt... could be.. could be the crinone or something else. You are just going to have to wait and see. I know it is so hard!! Hang in there. I hope this is a good sign for you

I hope it is all a good sign! I know it is hard to not drive yourself crazy. I can only imagine that a DE cycle totally intensifies that! Sticky vibes!
