Who am I?

So, my assistant manager has noticed that I'm "not acting myself". Maybe I seem a bit grumpy? She has noticed my rediculously frequent trips to the bathroom and has been joking about it ("Elana, are you in the bathroom again?!?!") I also don't feel quite right...

But here's what makes me nervous. I had a twinge in my lower-left abdominal quadrant earlier in the day--and I've had it before (in non-pregnant cycles). I honestly don't recall if I had it during my pregnant cycle. And my cervical position is pretty low, which is not a good sign for me. I do have a bit of the "metal mouth" taste, but that has happened in both pregnant and non-pregnant cycles...and could be a sign of "not pregnant", since it happened when I miscarried and has happened during AF.

And for those of you wondering, I am using progesterone suppositories--although I am curious as to why everyone wants to know and would love to know why via comment. :-)

spotting

I have never, ever had mid cycle spotting…not ever…Not even when I was on depo provera, not when I was on birth control and it didn’t even happen in January when I got pregnant and miscarried. I have never had even the teeniest spot except after a procedure (IUI, HSG, etc.) And yet (this will be way TMI, so feel free to skip the rest of this paragraph if you’re easily grossed out)…I just went to the bathroom and noticed a pink tinge on the toilet paper—not even enough to get into my underwear and I’m not hallucinating. Plus, when I get my period, I spot brown first, not pink and I’m weeks away from AF.

Could it be??? Implantation spotting??? I’m 6 DPR, 3 DPT, so it would be a teensy bit early for implantation, but not out of the ballpark…and that’s much better than late! Plus the fact that my best embryo was growing pretty quickly, so who knows?!?!?! Any thoughts??

And, just in case you were wondering, I've gone to the bathroom at least 4 times in the 2 hours it's been since I had the spotting...
