Grls, i'm so crazy!! I started "spotting" mostly brown/clearish, last Mon, 8/20, which would've been around the right time to be implantation bleeding, though I tried not to get too excited. It has gradually gotten a little more, little more brown, and I'm using a light panty liner, but don't need a tampon. I really think it's just my period coming, but 8 days of "coming" and it's not here yet!??!?!?!? Is this supposed to drive me comepletely insane?? i got in a car accident this morning, so that' really not helping the whole STRESS level!!
I don't know what to do. I'm trying not to stress, but my period was 8 days late last month, which was torture, and I just don't want to go through all that waiting again!
I know there's no magic way, but how can I relax, and just let the stupid period come, if it's gonna come!!! Why does it have to take for-freakin-ever, now that I'm ttc!???
Any suggestions/advice/comfort/support welcome
period due today....I guess. kinda wacky...who knows?

well, my period is crazy heavy, so, for me, if I have it, I KNOW! The spotting even tapered off last Wed, Thurs, to almost nothing, but came back, more like my pre-period stuff last Friday, but it just won't come! I've never had this b/f, in 10 yrs of having my period, so it's really annoying to change now that I'm ttc.

This exact thing happened to me this past month. I was spotting dark brown and using a pantyliner. I too thought it might be implantation bleeding but got a negative pregnancy test. Anyway, it kept up for the length of a normal period and then went away and this was three weeks ago. My mom told me that her doc said that any bleeding/spotting whatsoever can count as your period. So you might not get a heavy period this month. My period had never ever been this light either, but I asked around (friends, sisters) and it seems like it happens every once in a while to everyone. It's just way more stressful when you're ttc!!! How long have you been ttc? I've been off the pill for 4 months and figure my system is still trying to get back to "normal".

Oh, hon, I've been there. It's horrible when it comes, but horrible when you know it's coming and it just won't freakin' show! Take another PG test, and if it's still negative, then get parsley--dried flakes are fine, and boil a cup of water, add a teaspoon of flakes, cover and let steep for 20minutes. Strain the flakes off, add sugar or honey to taste, and drink. Drink it 3 times a day til your period is full flow. It will probably only take 2-3 cups to get things going.
I've used it a few times and it always worked.

sorry you're going through this...you should talk to your obgyn to get something to regulate your periods like clomid, that'll make a big difference in ttc, talk to your doctor about that, you can also ask an RE (fertility specialist) online for free and get their opinion, try www.FertilityTies.com
good luck!

You can get some pills from the Dr to make you start.
Good luck

did you ever think the spotting could be your period when girls are stressed they can produce less eggs therefore having less flow the only way to know for sure if everything is ok ask a professional if you are in doubt
