Sorry it’s long but informative..

9/26 LMP

DTD 10/3, 10/11, 10/13 and 10/16 (we are not TTC so I hadn’t realized my O week until I was transferring my stuff from my paper calendar to my app) I keep track of our BDing because I always thought my cycles were irregular and wanted a base if I ended with a BFP I got pregnant with my son with no period and my LMP had been more then 30days prior, so I’ve always tracked BDing.

10/14 projected O day by Glow, projected O day on other app 10/12

10/28 projected next AF by glow, projected AF on other app 10/26

On 10/17 I had super light pink show on the toilet paper when I went to the restroom, it happened a few times throughout the day, never got heavier and was gone by later in the evening and has not returned. I tested 10/19 out of curiosity (I thought it could’ve been implantation bleeding) because I have two apps with different O weeks, and I wanted to rule that out; my test was negative (I am not tracking either we decided to wing it for a couple months to test our luck)

I’m not technically having any symptoms just cramping the intensity is off and on, today I was hungry but really no appetite had to force myself to eat something and I became emotional out of nowhere; I cried during a song that was playing that was otherwise not a sad song, and from there I continued to cry for about an hr because now I was thinking of sad stuff or upset I was even crying.

I’m sure it’s normal hormone fluctuation;

but my question is…….

If the spotting I had on the 17th wasn’t implantation (r/o by negative HCG two days later) I’m thinking it was ovulation spotting.

Would I count my DPO from that spotting on 10/17 or from the projected O day on 10/12 or 10/14?
