    Light spotting on Clomid

    So I took 50mg from CD 3-7. up through last night, I have had all negative OPKs. Then last night I was cramping, and had a small bit of blood when I wiped. Well around 11am this morning, I tested with an OPK again it was a DEF positive. I wasn't going to use them this month, but curiosity got the best of me. Could the blood be related to possible Ovulation??

    Also, that means I should O soon. DH and I DTD on Thursday night (late around 11). Hes out of town for work until Monday Evening. (Which falls great within the every 4 days guideline i guess). We should be covered, right?

    Thanks!

    It is fairly common to spot around O due to estrogen softening the cervix, making it more irritable.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    Yep totally normal! Keep up the e4d even after you think you Oed though just in case it's a faker.

    Not sure what CD you are on but be aware if still taking Clomid it can cause false pos opK

    Yes what CD was the positive on? Clomid can give false positives while on it & for 3 days after, so up until CD11. Regardless BD E4D should cover you well.

    Period came. So back on Clomid. If we fail this month, DH has to be checked.
