Waiting to try:Archie- need help !

2005-06-03

Name: a member Dear Archie,

I am sorry to bother you, but I strongly feel that only you can provide the best explanation to my query.

I am 28, married for 3 years- no kids. I have a very regular cycle of 28 days( rarely it is 27 days). I am physically fit & fine and so is my husband. We are ttc now- we had intercourse in april( around my ovulation period) , but didn't get any positive result and I got my periods exactly after 28 days. I was okay with it, since it was the first attempt. Next month i.e. in May, we could not have intercourse , beacuse I was out of town due to my work. Now my periods were due on may 30th. But I didnt get my period on may 30th , instead I noticed a very little bleeding on 31st morning(one daye late), when I woke up and went to pee. I thought I got my period one daye late and I was fine with it....but to my surprise I didn't have any bleeding for the rest of the day. Again on June 1st morning when I went to the toilet, I noticed some bleeding which didn't continue for the rest of the day. The same thing happened for the next 2 days.

Archie, It has never happened before. Now I am really confused about what is going on in my body ? I have never experienced such thing in the past and my periods are very precise and my periods may come one day before the due date, but never after the due date. This is for the first time that I got my period one day late and moreover it is not at all like my usual period- i mean very little bleeding and that too in the morning.

Can you please throw some light on this ? Do you see any problem here ?

God bless you.

archie replied. Dear Member,
To me looks very normal. No problem with you or your cycles, all is well.

Since you did not stop bleeding in one day and continued weak bleeding for 4-5 days suggest a normal period. For some reason you may have been a day late on your ovulation and therefore your period are late by one day. Besides it's normal while ttc the periods go by a few days here and there, that's why BBT, CM and OPK are recommended.

I do not know what method you adopt to know ovulation but I would say have intercourse between CD11 and CD15, once 24 hour. Even on CD16 is OK. It may take a few cycles to get pregnant and that's natural.

thank you archie

Hi Archie,

Thank you very very much for your help. I was eagerly waiting for your response. I am somewhat relieved after reading your post.

I am using Ovulation kit & CM method to detect ovulation. In april,I detected the surge on CD 12, so I must have ovulated around CD 14 and we had intercourse from CD 12 to CD 16. But last month (in May), we already knew that we wouldn't be able to try, due to our work related commitments, so I knew this would not be my month and I was completely okay with it. And most important thing, we are not even in a hurry for a baby. My aim is to concieve anytime in 2005.

My main concern was not pregnancy here, but this "unsual period". I was bleeding only in the mornings( mostly with first pee or motion of the day). And yes, I was having the same kind of discomfort and abdominal pain, which I normally do during my periods, but the only difference was the quantity of blood flow. It was distinctly a very weak bleeding. This made me tensed beacuse this never happened before.

Thank you again !

God bless you & your family.
