I have a (maybe confusing) question.

I have unprotected sex with my husband but he pulls out every time. In March, my period was due the 16th and came exactly one week late (unusual). This month, my 'period' came on the 17th. I don't think it was my period though. My husband said he's pretty sure he ejaculated in me during this cycle. I am on NO birth control. On the 16th, I started having very minor cramps and whenever I went pee, a little bit of light brown CM came out. This went on until the 17th. Then, on the 17th, I got a red/pink/light brown 'period'. This lasted 1-2 days total and my cramps went away. Yesterday and today, very very little came out. I wore a tampon and it wasn't even half-covered both days. There was reddish-pink/light brown on it. (Sorry for all the TMI!!). That is very unusual for me because my period usually lasts a total of 7-9 days. My mother had her 'period' when she was pregnant so I was wondering if this could be what's happening to me. Someone mentioned decidual [sp?] bleeding to me.

Has anyone experienced bleeding like this during pregnancy/not during pregnancy? Any other advice? Thanks Smile

Hey Flowerchild,

I would love to know how this turned out for you. I am in a similar situation with no birth control, pulling out and sometimes ejaculation inside. I too experienced a very light bleed at my last period and took a test 2 weeks later (after a lot of other symptoms started cropping up). It was negative. I'm in the last week of my 2 week wait and it's driving me mad.
Please let me know how it turned out for you.
