Cycle Wonky-ness

It's been awhile hasn't it.  Things have been BUSY lately!  The school year is almost over though so hopefully things will sloooooow down.  I'm exhausted!  I need one heck of a summer break.  I think I'm way more ready for this than the kids are. :)

So I'm having a bit of a wonky mid cycle and I just don't know what to make of it.  My cycles are fairly predictable.  Five days of bleeding followed by just a few "green" days then right into "white" days.  There's usually about 7 or so of those then we move into 12-13 post peak green days.  Um this cycle is being a little strange.  My first 3 white days were pretty poor quality (6-8c ad), which is actually pretty typical. Then I had a better day, 8kl x3.  Then I had a GREAT day, 10kl ad, and I do mean all day sorry TMI).  This is also typical.  However...what is not typical is that after that great day of 10kl ad it's gone downhill fast.  I usually have about 3 days of 10kl but I only had the one.  The last 2 days have been a 8c x2 and a 6c x1.  Then the really weird thing was first thing this morning there was the slightest pink tinge (not pink cm, just pink on the tp).  I almost didn't notice it.  I have never ever ever had mid cycle spotting.  I used to have tebb and some brown bleeding a few days before af but not since I started HCG.  Besides, it has never been mid cycle like this and never pink.  I have no clue what to think.

I am refusing to let my mind wonder over to implantation bleeding.  I refuse!  Ok, maybe I did let my mind go there since I'm writing about it...but I don't want to go there.  That is completely not logical.  It would be way too soon for implantation bleeding.  Doesn't it take like 5 or so days for that?  So unless I ovulated on one of my first "white" days that is not even possible.  So since it's not possible we are going to move on.  :o)

So what could it be?  Bleeding from ovulation?  Does that happen?  I haven't experienced it but anything is possible right?
Maybe I'm just crazy.  Maybe it wasn't really there.  Maybe my sleepy eyes were playing tricks on me.

I want to be pregnant so badly that maybe I'm making myself see things to get my hopes us.  I hope my mind isn't that cruel!

  1. What meds are you on that would make your mucus pattern change? I had some spotting 5dpo this past month and my doctor said it wasn't implantation bleeding-but like you I've never had spotting at that time before. I'm doing a cycle review with my Creighton teacher too, I'll you know what she thinks it is.

  2. Nope, not new meds. Actually I don't take anything until P+5 and I'm not even there yet. I have no clue what's going on. I'm thinking maybe the mucus change is due to stress? But the weird bleeding thing...I have no clue. And there hasn't been anymore today.

  3. I totally need to learn creighton, b/c your post absolutely lost me! But yes, it could have been a little ovulation spotting. I've seen that before on charts...or it could be implantation spotting! I wish I could see your chart! You don't chart online at all do you...like with fertility friend? Wait a minute! do you even do temps with creighton? I know I'm no help!

  4. Gosh, I don't know anything about it, but I think I am going to go with the hopeful scenario! I am praying! Like with Kaitlin, you never know!! :)

  5. Angela - Yes you do! Creighton is awesome and there is no temp taking involved. Unfortunately though fertility friend isn't really all that friendly to Creighton.

    Leila - You're right, you never know. Thanks for your prayers! I'm trying to keep up hope but also be realistic. It's a hard line to walk.
