Weirdness....

After I lost 100 lbs my cycle regulated and I had a baby so after baby it has been mostly regular. I was about a week or so late once and last cycle I had weird pregnancy symptoms but tested negative and then went on to have a period. It was not a normal period very slow to start and not even a fraction of the amount ( sorry tmi) that it normally is. So today I am CD 18 and last night I started having some brown spotting???? I know no one is gonna have an answer for me but any thoughts on what is going on is appreciated. I'm not on any form of BC bc we would like to have another baby but aren't "actively" trying. TIA

Tia,

This is coming from a PCOS girl; maybe you had a cyst?
How is your pain level?
Have you tested again?
Wishing you an easy cycle~

You can test negative and still be pregnant. Take an over the counter test just to make sure. Also depending on how old you are your cycles may be changing.

Ok, so here's my story...post op almost two years and my husband and I stopped using any form of BC, letting God decide...well, had all the classic signs and symptoms, tested...negative : /  then had the weird period, started spotty, ended quickly...hmmm, still negative two tests...then next month about 4 days after what would be my ovulation dates I tested again...positive... :D  BUT, I have had werdo bleeding ever since...first implant bleeding, then bleeding when my regular period would have occured the next month.  Then no reason they coudl find HEAVY bleeding, and now just ongoing weirdo brown spotting for two weeks...and its seems to have finally stopped entering second tri...all the while baby is fine, cervix tightly closed, and me a nervous wreck...My best advice is go see the doc.  You may have m/c and didn't know you were pregnant, or you may be like me and your body is somewhat disoriented by this post-op babycakes bean...lol...wishing you the best!!!

Thanks for the concern and thanks for sharing!!! I have no idea what is going on. You would think dealing with "weird" periods all my life I would be better equiped but ever since they went normal that's the way I expect it. I did have PCOS or I guess I still do but it got better with the weight loss. I'm not really having any pain but kinda a tuggy feeling on my left side and the spotting is still here a little more but nothing that seems like the start of a period...UGH. I have been having bad lower back cramps and today I swear my ta tas were burning. I guess I need to investigate this more. I'm gonna kinda wait it out the weekend then see what I can figure out next week. Thanks again...I'll keep you posted!!!
