This cycle has been so strange. I have been charting and temping and using OPK's for my RE this month. First of all, I ovulated early, on day 11 and it is usually on CD 16. Then, I have not had any of my normal "after ovulation/PMS symptoms". Until about two days ago, I started cramping and then last night I started spotting. It is only when i wipe and has turned from pink to brown. I am at 13DPO today and not due for AF until the 26th. So my question is... since I ovulated early, am i just starting my period early? I have been late before, never early though! (and yes i took an HPT last night just in case and it was negative of course) Anyone else experience sudden changes like this and any possible reasons? Thanks for your help. I just feel like things are getting worse....

usually as far as i know your period is like 14 days after ovulation. ovulation however does not allways occur on the same time. you can ovulate late or early. i'm not sure if you took anything that would make you ovulate earlier. if your on meds it could for sure be the reason. if your not, it could be stress or any other changes. wait a few days and if you still dont get your period call your dr. but i would do another test anyways in a few days to make sure. good luck.

no, not on any meds yet. we just had our initial evaluation and are waiting for some test results. Just trying the old fashioned way in the meantime. (you know how that goes though) despite all of our issues, i am still pretty regular though and now it seems my cycles are changing... i hope it is just a fluke this month. Thank you for responding!

Yes, I agree with Roro - ovulation can change, but AF should arrive about 14 days past ovulation. Still hoping you can be pregnant!

not to compare but once i went upstate for the summer and got my period like a week or even 2 early and for my brother's bar mitzvah i was so nervous it was late a whole 2 weeks. in my whole 30 years (till i got married ofcourse and then it went down hill) i was always perfect except those 2 times. also, i'm not sure of your story, and g-d forbid not to scare you, but when i got off the bcp it messed me up really bad. i do hope that you are pregnant and thats the reason for it being wierd. i'll pray for you.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
