TTC and questions

My hubby and I have been TTC and this month was the first that I bought ovulation tests. I was supposed to start my period about 4 days ago. Three days ago I started spotting lightly and cramping, same with yesterday, and today nothing. Usually I have pretty heavy periods for a few days. Also, I am feeling cramping when I sit down mainly. I took a pregnancy test but it is coming out negative.  Very confused!

Re: TTC and questions

  • Negative tests usually mean you aren't pregnant.  When did you get positive OPKs? Those don't guarantee ovulation occured, just that your LH surged.  You may want to read the TTGP newbie link and look into charting your basal body temperature along with the OPKs.

  • Funny! I'm having the same symptoms except I'm 4 days late and nauseated. Sweet stuff is bothering me but I know it may just be AF ready to come.

    From what I've heard from friends light spotting can be normal in the first few weeks, but the only way to TRULY know is to pee on a stick. By tomorrow morning if there are still no signs that's what I'm doing. Best of luck to you!!!

    Forgive this post. I didn't read your post carefully!!! Bah! But in RARE cases you can have a false negative. Friend of mine took 5 home pregnancy tests which all turned out negative. After 60 days went to the doc and was preggo, but I wouldn't hold on to that hope.
