For 3 months, my husband and I are trying
desperately to conceive. This will be
baby #2 for us but no luck has come our
way. Baby #1 was a surprise to us.
This time around I am monitoring my bbt,
cm, cervix, and using opk's to help us
conceive faster. It's been
heartbreaking, esp. For me. I thought I
was definately pregnant this month. I
ovulated on the 25th and I just felt
pregnant: nausea, back pain, fatigue, mood
swings, increase cm. Bleeding gums. I
also missed my period yesterday. But
this morning I had light pink bleeding
when I wiped. Now it's more of a dark
brown color and still very light. The
pregnancy test that I took says not
pregnant. I have read about implantation
bleeding. Some sites say it's not common
and the stories I have read
contraindicates that. When should I
retest?

Retest whenever you want. But 3 months
trying is hardly "trouble trying to
conceive". It takes a healthy couple on
average 6 months-1 year to conceive. Have
patience, you already have one child so
you know you can get pregnant.

I had implantation about 5 days after my
expected period.
Some people do have implantation, and some
don't.
If you don't get a "full blown" period.
Wait a couple of days and test again. It
might have been to early. Your levels
might not be high enough.
Like she said, you know you can have
children as you already have one. Just
relax and *enjoy* making another one!!
