We are currently ttc #1. I ovulated on 12/7, and we did everything possible to ensure a pregnancy. Used pre-seed, put legs on the wall for 15 minutes, no hot tub for a few weeks before hand. I was due for my period on 12/25. My breasts started hurting around 12/15 and on 12/18, I had some brown spitting. Nothing yesterday, but today I woke up and had some more brown spotting, but a little heavier and a few cramps. I figured it was AF, but it's earlier than normal and just a lot different. Typically it's bright red, and I have horrible cramps the first day. My current cramps are hit or miss and not bad at all. More annoying than anything. Could this be implantation bleeding, or is AF just different this cycle? Any thoughts?
