I feel like I’m going insane! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Candice

Someone please help! 😜 I have two kiddos. 6 years and 11 months (currently breastfeeding). With my first, we did the baby dance when I was “on my period” and knew I was pregnant the following day because the bleeding stopped (totally different than my normal periods at the time/ also NOT trying to conceive, was just a horny kid dating a new guy) ANYWHO with baby #2 (been with my SO for a few years now) we had been trying for months upon actually getting pregnant. I was taking clomid for 5 cycles and the medicine literally made me a hormonal insane mess! I finally stopped taking it in May of 2016. Found out we were pregnant in August that year. I didn’t have anything going on to make me believe I was pregnant other than “I just knew”. SOOOOOO this leads me to my post today.

My SO is 8 1/2 years older than myself (I’ll be 28 on Tuesday) and he wants me to start popping out babies, he pretty much wants me to birth a football team 😂😂 he’s a fantastic man and a great father to both my oldest and our son we have together. We’re never “safe” and if we get pregnant, we get pregnant. I’m currently breastfeeding our youngest and it’s been a The hardest journey I’ve endured thus far in parenting but oh so rewarding! While he’s ready for me to become pregnant again, I want to enjoy our youngest a little longer before having another and I’d be COMPLETELY devastated if it ended our breastfeeding journey.

I’ve kept track on my calendar on my iPhone of my periods and days we’ve had sex but for some reason when I went to track where I’m at, it’s all gone! 😠 So the only information I have about my period is the month of February. I started my period on February the 3rd, it lasted until the 9th. We did the baby dance on the 17th (calendar says I was ovulating then) and then again on the 23rd. On February 28th, I wiped and there was gooey CM tinged with bright pink blood. This happened a couple times after going to the bathroom that night. I woke up the following morning, nothing when I wiped but when I kind of dabbed the opening of my vagina (inserting) a little toilet paper, there was blood, but nothing coming out. That went on until about midday and I got paranoid I was going to start a heavy flow and put in a lite tampon (I know they say to use pads Incase but I don’t have any), I went to check it a few hours later with hardly anything on it, so I went ahead and put a regular in, went to check it a couple hours later and there was some brown/red blood but not too much. I put another one in, removed it when I got in the shower and it was dry with just a few strikes. Once I got out, I put a lite back in. I went to bed around 1130pm and got up at 830 and it was full. I have yet to check again. But it’s completely throwing me off. My mother came over yesterday and made me test (BFN) and i told her it would be bc if I am, it’s too early to test. With my normal periods, I cramp for about a week before AF shows (I started having a pulling sensation with mild cramping day of spotting) and when she shows, she makes a grand entrance and it starts off kind of heavy. NEVER have I ever spotted before a period. So I’m all in my feels bc I’m hoping I’m not pregnant (I’ll be happy still if I am) my hubs is over the moon and now I’m afraid I’ve gotten him all excited, only to let him down. Did I mention I’m a hormonal mess right now?!! 😂😂

I keep getting different ovulation days based on different apps and ovulation calculators. But here’s what I’ve got;

I ovulated between the 16th-20th

Had sex the 17th and 23rd

Started spotting the 28th

Still spotting/light bleeding March 2nd

Any input helps! TIA 💕
