Woohoo I'm spotting!! It looks like AF is showing up right on time. Since I had a five day bleed before my last bfp I'm a little cautious. I kind of want to test tomorrow and if it's a bfn I want to stop progesterone, but maybe I should keep taking it a bit longer to make sure... What do you guys think? I got my last bfp two days after my five day bleed.

You had af for 5 days and got your bfp 2 days after?

Yes. I haven't technically had AF since my son was born, two years ago tomorrow. He's breastfed. I thought I had a bfp last month but when I went for blood work it was negative. Two days later I started to bleed so I assumed I was finally getting my first AF. Five days later I stopped bleeding but I was getting darker bfps so I thought the tests were bad. They kept getting darker and my blood work was positive. I ended up miscarrying because my progesterone was so low. This time I started taking progesterone supplements before ovulation so hopefully my next pregnancy will be successful.

Aren't you supposed to take progesterone after ovulation? Just curious bc I am going to be on progesterone my next cycle.

Yes. I started at 5 dpo but most start around 3 dpo. I'm just not sure when I should stop taking it since I got my last bfp after bleeding for five days. I'm pretty sure this is my AF but I'm afraid to end up being pregnant and lose it again.

My dr told me to start progesterone at 3dpo and if bfn at 14dpo to stop the progesterone and let af come. To me sounds like af is trying to come. So I would stop it.
