Spotting on DPO 11 & 12... on progesterone cream...

[RavenT]

Hey all ... its been a while since I posted a question here... I am on DPO 12 and taking progesterone cream... my temps are staying up .. this mornings was 97.9 which is just about my highest temp... but I have been spotting yesterday and today... The tracker has my Lateal phase as being 11 days which means that if not pregnant I should have started to bleed today... the spotting is heavier but not like a usual AF... I haven't tested yet and am afraid to... cause I don't want to see the BPN ... so I thought I would wait until DPO 14 before I tested... and no it is not easy to wait that long... I am using progesterone cream... 1/2 teaspoon twice daily... Noon and midnight... that equals about 88mg of progesterone...

Advice anyone??!?!

Thanks you guys... I am doing really good... Had a minute (very small) crying jag while talking to my baby's daddy... but did some EFT and released all that... Yeah I think keeping a positive attitude is really important... I just thank the powers that be that at 49.75 I am still ovulating and getting my AF so that I can WTC - Work to conceive... I won't be the first and only woman 50 and over to have a child but I will still be in the ranks!!! LOL

Thanks again for all your support!!!

Hey all.. I peed on the stick as Adgal said... and it came back negative... and AF is here in all her GLORY... so I am starting over...was going to stay on the progesterone cream until Sunday but with the BFN and AF going really heavy on me... its CD 1 and planning for Feb. 4th thru the 10th....Looking to losing more weight and increasing the exercise...

Thanks for all your encouragement... and the baby dust!! I'll hang on to some of it for 14 days from now!!!

WHAT ARE YOU NUTS???  TEST WOMAN!! I always spot right before AF is due, about 6dpo until about a day before af is due and BAM it stops!  I think you have so many + signs :) can't wait to hear !!

This all sounds very positive!  I don't have any experience with Progesterone cream, but the spotting (maybe implantation bleeding?) and raised temps sound good!  I think it's only about 30% of all pregnancies experience implantation bleeding, but my best friend has three children and experienced it with all three...you just never know!

I understand about not wanting to test...hang in there!  you're almost there!!!

Good luck to you!!
