I dont wanna get my hopes up but....

Hannah ✴ • 23. Betrothed. Montreal. Force of nature.

So, I was supposed to start my period two days ago. I know this because I tracked my ovulation and always start 14 dpo. We weren't really trying this month, but i noticed the egg white cm by accident and we gave it a go so I had sex on the day of and day after ovulation.

Normally, I am extremely emotional and fatigued a week before AF is due. I also normally have super intense knock-me-on-my-ass cramps a few days before and during AF, but this time there was nothing like that. My breasts were sore, but they felt more "full" than anything. They weren't tender to the touch like they normally are.

On the day AF was due, I took a HPT and it came up negative, so I shrugged it off. I thought I was out this cycle. Later on that day, my husband told me that my discharge was brown after sex. I figured it was my period and went about my business, but since then the brown discharge has completely stopped and the symptoms are still at bay, except now I'm having mild cramps. They're not intense like my PMS cramps, they feel like pressure in my lower abdomen and back.

I'm going to test again tomorrow, but I really don't want to. I was AF would just start. I hate this part of TTC. I don't wanna get my hopes up for nothing.

This doesn't make sense. The late AF, the discharge, the weird cramps.

Blah.
