hello...long time ttc again

Hello...Have not been on MEDHElP forums since we were ttc with out daughter back in 08.  We have just started TTC baby number 3 which will be our 4th pregnancy due to a past miscarriage.  I have PCOS and this is our first cycle trying.  I did not temp or take any fertility meds this round so far.  (Had to use clomid to conceive DD)   I always have long or longish cycles, Sometimes I miss a few months inbetween due to the PCOS but lately they have been pretty regular in the sense that I have had a period every month but never 28 or 30 day cycles....34-40 day cycles seems to be where I sit.       Anyways the first day of my last period was August 31st.  I did not use any opks but noticed egg white cervical mucus around the 22-23 of sept.  We did some baby dancing before, on and after those days....that last date i tracked that we had sex was the 24th.  I have had mild cramping on and off, tender breasts and headaches & back pain for the last 2 weeks or so.   Yesterday when I wiped there was a tiny amount of blood so I assumed I was about to start my period and was ofcourse dissapointed....but when I woke up this morning nothing else had happened...no blood or cramping.  Then today I had a small bit more of pink-redish and brown in my panties but still no cramping or blood so I am PRAYING it is implantation bleeding which I did have when we got pregnant with out daughter but so far still BFN tests.   I am on CD 37 and around 12-14 days since I think I ovulated.  Seems a little bit late to be having IB since that is usually days 7-10 i think but I am just praying I conceived or ovulated a little bit later than I thought.   Since we had sex on the 24th I guess it is possible it is IB.  Anyways I didnt intend this to be long...I went down the TTC road for a year trying with our daughter so I pretty much know all the info.  Guess I just wanted to say hello and have a little support as I am going crazy waiting for either a full AF or a BFP!!!     Thanks if you stuck with me reading all of this LOL

Full bleeding as of this morning.  Never had a period that started so slowly.  Either way it reminds me how terrible of a rollar coaster this ttc thing is.  Makes me want to run in the other direction.

well today I started spotting...the blood is not red but more of a bright pink.  I am not sure what is going on. Not like a regular period.... I am almost 100% sure I was pregnant so maybe this was a chemical.   The blood isn't too heavy but more than what I saw with the implantation spotting.  I will test again tomorrow just to see if I get a darker positive.  I am also feeling terrible physically, my head has been killing me all day and I just feel sick all together.  Just wanted to update.   Thanks
