In December, we had a miscarriage which smacked us in the face on Christmas Day. Luckily, it was an early miscarriage; but it was still devastating. We decided to stop TTC for the time being - but never went back to BC or condoms. Basically we weren’t trying, but we also weren’t actively trying to avoid it.

My periods have always been a strict 28 cycle - apart from December obviously. Here I sit, 4 days late and I’m extremely confused.

On the day AF was due, I thought for sure that she had shown up because of the sudden wetness in my underwear. Ran to the bathroom only to find milky white mucous. This continued for the first two days of AF being MIA. Day 3 of being late, I started having light brown discharge/spotting. Today, it started as pinkish drips and as today ends, it’s red drops ONLY when I wipe.

I took a pregnancy test (cheap dollar store brand) yesterday and got a negative result.

Any wise words ladies? Should I get multiple different kinds of HPTs or a specific one?
