Hi,
I just noticed this rare active thread after a couple of days of searching all over the net, so I thought I'd stop to say good luck to those ttc, and also to share my story in hope of someone replying!
I came off microgynon in December, and 6 weeks later after no period I started to get brown spotting. This went on for a while, making me think it was actually my period, until the start of feb when I actually started to bleed and felt that I was having a period as I remember them, with cramps and a proper flow. I was so relieved that things seemed to be back to normal. Then it stopped after 6 days, which was completely normal. Then a week later, I had what I thought was ovulation spotting on the 13th day of my cycle, as it was very light brown once that day and I had some sharp pains in my left lower abdomen. I was again relieved thinking I was back to normal. But then 2 days later I started spotting again, and it then turned into red bleeding, not as heavy as a period, but I had cramps to go with it which made me think I was having another period. So I started worrying about this, and then it just stopped. I had a small amount of blood after sex yesterday but nothing else since Tuesday, and I've been having strange cramps/twinges down there even since I stopped bleeding, still happening now !
I have no idea what's going on with my body, but if anyone can help that'd be great!

Update: I did my bloodwork this morning, and got another negative result. I really feel like at this point, I'm more disappointed because I still haven't gotten my af. And although I'm actively ttc and really paying attention to my body, I'm up to my ears with frustration.
I went from a 28 day cycle to a 33 day cycle. This happened in August, when I got no af at all. We weren't ttc at that point, and I KNEW I was stressed out. July was the last of my 28DC..and September is when my 33DC began. I honestly believe that my cycle change had to do with the fact that there were 2 full moons in the month of August (also known as a 'Blue Moon'). This only occurs every few years.
Hubby and I were going to start TTC in October, but I wanted to make sure that my cycle remained regular for a few months before we tried. So..we started at the end of December.
I keep reading that the reason your period may come late is because you didn't ovulate when you thought you did. However, I did a Digital OPK, which I read that you can't get a false positive with. So I know exactly when I ovulated.
Ovualted and had sex at the right time. Began spotting 8 days later, at the right time. Now missed period. Symptoms up the wazooo!! How can I not be pregnant? But the test keeps saying negative. Couldn't get more blunt than that. Hopefully my OBGYN appt tomorrow can give me some answers.
I know how frustrating this is ladies - You want this so bad, you pay attention to the signs, things match up perfectly, and yet..negatives and one lines is what we get?!?
I hope everyone see's a positive/double lines really soon!! Baby Dust to you all!! & don't forget to come back and let us know when it happens for you!!
Give it a week, and test again.

Hi again, please will someone reply to me? I had a really strange sharp pain in my left lower back this morning which lasted only but seconds but it scared me. I don't know if what I experienced was implantation or whether it was something to worry about, or even another period, if that's possible! This is the first time it has happened and I have no idea what to experience with pregnancy so I'm worried about the bleeding! I'm really hoping that it is a good sign for me, and as well as the bleeding I have had headaches and this morning I woke up with a really stuffy nose and I now have a sore throat. However, it's been really warm where I live so it can't be the weather! Is that even a positive sign??
