Have to ask....

TMI I know but if I strain just a bit to poo I have bright red spotting. This usually only happens while I'm in my tww. I'm 8DPO. I have an appointment to see my OB Monday but was wondering if anyone has had this happen to them and if they have had it checked out or can give me some insight to what might be happening. Thanks so much :-)

Is it vaginal spotting?  If so, could be implantation spotting and since youre straining, it could be showing up then instead of when you wipe.  Just a thought.

It is Vaginal spotting. I see it when I wipe after the poo. Then it's gone. It happens just about every month around this time so that's why I don't think it's IB. At first I thought it could be but I never get pg. I'm going to ask the OB if I have any cysts and if that could cause it. I'm wondering if I have some from the fertility drugs I have previously taken. I know this probably isn't normal and shouldn't be happening.
