Hi, my husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for a few months now. I'm supposed to have ovulated around the 16th/17th of this month. We had unprotected sex every day from the 11th-18th and then again on the 20th. On the 21st, however, I went to the bathroom and noticed blood in the toilet. I also wiped and there was blood. I thought I may have had an early period which confused me because I had my normal ovulation symptoms from the 11th-18th (sore breasts) and I cramped around the 16th-17th, indicating I may have ovulated. It's been about three days. I've noticed it's been a little off and on the past few days, and it's light. It doesn't even fill up a pad (I don't have pantiliners unfortunately). I'm confused, though, as if it was IB, then I shouldn't be clotting, but I've seen blood clots being passed.

 

I'm still 8 days before my period was supposed to start. Is it an early period, or is it IB?
