Nefertiti - that sounds just like the "AF" I got just before I got a BFP (I was then around 5 1/2-6wks preggy by then)
Got my fingers crossed that it's the same for you ]]> Sun, 20 Apr 2008 18:35:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=361195&title=shortest-af#361195 <![CDATA[Shortest AF! : Mine have been really short since...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360826&title=shortest-af#360826 Author: tiptoes

Mine have been really short since I went off the pill like 2 days tops. I checked with the doc and she said that is fine (though getting day 21 bloods done). But if it's not standard for you maybe it is implantation :) maybe if you get some of the other preggie signs over the next week you could test again ]]> Sun, 20 Apr 2008 10:17:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360826&title=shortest-af#360826 <![CDATA[Shortest AF! : Thats great linda!

Thats great linda! Congrats! :)

Charly - they have normal checkout operators keeping watch. There are 4 self service ones where i go. You have to put everything into the bag as everything has the weight programmed into the machines.]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 15:28:37 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360275&title=shortest-af#360275 <![CDATA[Shortest AF! : My period was due end of Feb and...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360227&title=shortest-af#360227 Author: linda

My period was due end of Feb and it started on track but was short and very very light (ie just needed liners). Did a test and got a BFN. Then on 5 March I got it again and it was full on for two days - and then stopped. Very strange for me. Then when I was late in April I tested and got a BFP. I think I'm 6 weeks along but it will be interesting to see with the first scan just where I am at because the whole cycle was weird - but I did like the end result!]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 13:10:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360227&title=shortest-af#360227 <![CDATA[Shortest AF! : (self service supermarket?

(self service supermarket? How do they police that?)

I hope you get an answer, one way or the other! It's so frustrsting when things like this happen, huh?
Most times you'd be GLAD of the short AF... but not in this case!

We sound very similar Emmecat.
So like speedy gonzalaz, I shot down to the supermarket, but yip you guessed it, BFN!
Oh well. Will see what these blood tests say. ]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 12:28:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360205&title=shortest-af#360205 <![CDATA[Shortest AF! : Nerefiti- my AF is only ever &#039;heavy&#039;...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360202&title=shortest-af#360202 Author: Emmecat

Nerefiti- my AF is only ever 'heavy' enough to need protection (pads) for about 2 days max. The start and end of it is really just spotting/staining only. Been like that since my D&C 9 years ago and even since my m/c, it was 'heavier' than usual...ie needed pads for 3 days...tops.  I must admit I wondered if it was implantation bleeding too but was quite clotty (sorry tmi) so I assume it was a proper period. I got 3 BFN's before it arrived but since then my temps were high after my period and my boobs still big etc...so thought for a sec I might be pg but temps gone done again now so maybe the old body is just getting back to normal after my recent m/c.

Maybe you should test

I tested on the Wednesday and it was negative. This was about the time af was due.
I always thought implantation bleeding would take place (if it did) around 7-10 DPO. Am I wrong? Be cool to think I was lol. But the bleeding I did get on the Thur and up until Friday evening was definately enough to need protection.
Hmmmm wonder if I should go get a test hehe they on special at the supermarket....oh and our supermarket now has 'self service checkouts'..so they don't need to know I'm getting more tests lol
Although I don't really hold out much hope of a positive.

Have you tested lately? There's a possibility it was implantation bleeding rather than AF.]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 12:00:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360190&title=shortest-af#360190 <![CDATA[Shortest AF! : On Wednesday I thought I was getting...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360182&title=shortest-af#360182 Author: Nefertiti

On Wednesday I thought I was getting the beginnings of af...a bit of spotting and the odd little bit of mucousy brown stuff.
Then on Thurday af was definately here, and then on Friday it slowed down and then today (Saturday) its not even here I don't even need a liner!
That is the shortest af I have ever had! 4 days is normal for me..even 5 sometimes.

I had to get progesterone levels checked on day 3 and was confused what day to do this on considering the spotting on the first day. Doctor said count that as day 1, but family planning (when I was there with someone else) said to count the full bleed as day 1. So I went in today.

Anyway...has anyone had an af that has lasted only 2 days? Probably lol, but just wondering.]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 11:48:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16483&PID=360182&title=shortest-af#360182
