Can someone please explain my body to me?
Because I will admit, i'm clueless....
Without a lot of baby dust emoticaons and OMG you're pregnant type of responses, I need some answers to at least give me some idea of what is going on with me....
Last month i got AF on July 22 - she was about 5-6 days early, which shocked me.
Because of the early AF, and we were away, DH and I lost track of where I was scheduling wise, and we discovered after the fact that we happened to "BD" unintentionally during a fertile period - several times (hey, we were having fun!  )
So, i didn't think anything of it, we have had several oops and nothing to show for it except one specific time 
Anyhoo, I am due to get AF Aug 19
For the past week I have been feeling FUNKY - weird smells, sore boobs - feeling very heavy and "full", bloated and "heavy" feeling, occasional headaches, crazy mood swings, and some creamy discharge... almost greenish.... Sorry TMI... I COULD be PMS, but I feel different... also I feel queasy and like I have to poop all the time...
This morning I noticed brown discharge on my undies (I am wearing white because I have white pants) at first I thought I was getting AF early again, but there is no other flow happening. I put toilet paper up there and it came back clear - but very wet, creamy CM (sorry )
I took a HPT after I saw the discharge, and it came up negative... which i guess at this point doesn't mean much...
Can anyone help me figure this out?
If this brown discharge is implantation (could it be???) then when could I expect a BFP on one of those early HPTs?
Thanks ladies!
I have to say - at this point I wouldn't freak about being pregnant. I may even be happy. I just want to stop analyzing these symptoms an just move on. When I was PG with Cailen I had no idea and took a HPT a week after AF was due. I wish I could be that clueless again, but now I know too much...

Well... it could be really anything...
If it was implantation, you could expect to see a positive in about a week.

Re: Can someone please explain my body to me?
hmmm...well, if you had A/F on July 22, then you probably ovulated around Aug. 5th, which means implantation would be around Aug. 12-14th. So, well, yup....sound like you could be getting a BFP by the end of the week or early next week.
Sounds to me like you're already expecting it! So, good luck. (holding back on the  by request).

Re: Can someone please explain my body to me?
Could be implantation, but it could also be an infection (you mentioned greenish discharge). Still to early to tell. My only symptoms before I got my BFP were extreme fatigue and I felt like I was coming down with a cold. I got really winded and lightheaded after doing anything, even something as simple as trying to clean my house. I had A cramps bad a little earlier than usual. It was also on a month when I was sure we didn't BD at the right times and I was out. Good luck!

Thank you - I forgot to list the extreme dizziness - like I am going to pass out when I get up - and my kickboxing classes have been absolute torture - I can't even punch without feeling exhausted - and I keep thinking I'm getting a cold  I remember this with Cailen too!!!

if you Af is expected on 8/19, you probably ovulated on the 6th. Which makes it very possible for implantantion. I would test this weekend!
ETA: I also wanted to add that travelling could also change your cycle.

Re: Can someone please explain my body to me?
I have heard that implantation spotting isn't all that common, I did experience it and kept a journal of all my pre-PG symptoms - we were trying so I was analyzing everything I know it drives you crazy, everyone says try to relax and wait it out (yeah right!)
So this is what I experienced -STOP READING IF YOU DON'T WANT THE TMI!!! 
Here you go:
4/12 Spotting: small amt of blood in mucus - 8DPO
4/13 Spotting: tiny flake like bits of blood in AM
4/14 Spotting: pink tinge in AM (BD'd in AM) cervix seemed to be high, no spotting until about 5PM, cervix seemed lower again, small amt. of red/pink blood mixed with mucus arounf cervix
Notes: mild crampy
Cycle Symptoms:
Breast Tenderness - Mild Cramps - Mild
Crying Spells - Moderate
4/15 Spotting: brownish dishcharge, dark brown clots near cervix, dishcharge diminishe das day went on - clots around cervix also diminished. had sex around 10PM, some blood after sex.
Cycle Symptoms:
Breast Tenderness - Mild Cramps - Mild
Crying Spells - Mild
4/17
Spotting: pink and brown discharge on TP (following a bowel movement)
Notes: Took HPT +++++ :)
4/18 Spotting: small amt of brownish discharge after a BM. more brownish dicharge in the afternoon (did not follow a BM)
Cycle Symptoms:
Cramps - Mild Flatulence - Mild
Irritability - Mild Moody - Mild
Nausea - Moderate
4/19 Notes: sex in the AM, no blood or brown discharge :)

Re: Can someone please explain my body to me?
So, my guess is an anonymous screen name in a few days might be a little obvious, huh?

hmmm....maybe I'm just not that "in-tune" with my body, but can you explain to me HOW you knew that your cervix was high or low, or how you knew that you had mucus or brown clots around your cervix??? I'm very curious now...

For me, I went through the whole IVF/FET cycles and I used Progesterone vaginal suppositories everyday. So I was very intuned with my body! I was able to tell the difference. For me, when I was pregnant, it just felt tighter.

I guess I learn something new everyday. That makes sense, I suppose. Thank you for the answer.

Re: Can someone please explain my body to me?
It sounds like you may be preggo. You definitely tested too early and should wait until AFTER AF is late.
Do you feel crampy?

Re: Can someone please explain my body to me?
Someone said you probably O'd arounf the 6th. f that is the case (i am terrible with that stuff) You probably wouldn't get a BFP until Saturday the earliest. I would wait for Monday to test again.
