I am beyond confused at this point... this cycle I truly felt in my heart this was it! My period was 5 days late and I started some bleeding yesterday. It's bright red and started off as a lot yesterday, now I have a little... today I took a pregnancy test and it was negative I broke down in tears immediately because it just doesn't make sense. I talked to someone I know today about all of this she really let me rant and get it all out. For reference she had 3 kids, so I truly felt like talking to her was smart. She told me that when she was pregnant she was bleeding heavy just like a period and she found out a few weeks after her "period" that she was indeed pregnant. Today she sent me this thing she researched and it said woman usually won't always get a positive till days after implantation. My appetite is off and I get nauseous on and off, today I just felt so weird and not like myself at all. I read that many women experience getting a heavier flow thinking it's their period when really they're pregnant. Has this happened to anyone else? Am I going crazy I'm just so confused... :(

Girl, I’m on day 47 of my cycle with 3 days of spotting around day 35 & I have negative tests still so I am with you.

really! Ugh it's the worst isn't it:( it's so confusing because I feel like we end up stressing ourselves out even more which affects us too! I feel so crappy today and just had that feeling.

Unfortunately I wouldn’t count it as that. If you had heavy flow and negative test, that’s probably just your period :( as sad as that is

for me the implantation would have ended 10 days ago & I still haven’t started so at this point I’m just gonna pretend I had the period because I just can’t even do it anymore. The questioning & the testing.

You may have had a chemical?

TTC can mess with your cycle and cause it to be late. As can the stress of TTC. If your bleeding was heavy and bright red it is unlikely that it was implantation, my guess is it was your period
