We've been TFAS since March. Since my period came back almost a year ago it's been 4-5 days, with the last day tapering off to spotting. Last cycle was the first time that we really put in a concerted effort and hit EOD, which is how we conceived before. My period started on time, which was a bummer, but it's now been going on for 8 days with no signs of tapering off. It's been really unusual in how it's come out (in fits and starts), and there have been a lot more clots than usual. The only other time this happened was my 2nd loss. I feel pretty sure that I'm having a CP, and I kind of want to get a test to see if I can confirm it, but I also don't know if there's any point because there might not be any hormones left in my system anyways. I knew that there was a chance that it could happen again given my history, but I also hoped that it wouldn't. I don't even know if this really belongs here, but I needed to put it out there.

I'm sorry, Speedy. TTCAL is such a mindfuck.

Oh girl Iām so sorry. If it helps bring you peace of mind I wouldnt hesitate to ask for a test. Hormones stick around longer than we think. After my mmc and d&c I still had some detectable hcg in my system a month later.

I'm so sorry. I had 2 CPs before my most recent pregnancy and by the time I started bleeding the tests were negative, after many days of clear positives. So even if the test is neg, it doesn't mean it isn't a CP. I am so sorry.

I checked yesterday and got a +HPT. My doctor was already closed for the long weekend so I'm going to call on Tuesday and request a blood test.

Sorry I didn't answer sooner, I'm on new meds and they make my brain a little fuzzy. I'm okay, actually. After the initial shock I tend to get quite clinical about it so not much lingering grief. We're looking at getting land in the next few years so I'm keeping myself busy by learning about growing things.
