Girls, the suspense is killing me!

I have no history of delayed menstruation or spotting and here's what's been going on for my normally 26-28 day cycle.

Here is the time span:
Yesterday, Day 31, nothing - POAS neg.
Today, Day 32, spotting in AM, so put in my Diva Cup. Removed it at 1pm to find the tiniest bit of bloody CM with about a 1" stretchability. NOTHING ELSE. Nothing wiping at all. Hence, my confusion. Any suggestions/advice?

BTW, sorry bout the details.

Today I woke up to more slight bleeding, a POAS that DIDN'T WORK (seriously, the window was white after 10 mins, like last time), a backache, and I feel like

. GAH!!!!!

I'm sorry j, that stinks.

You may want to consider a blood test after awhile. Since I still havent started, and I have an appt w/my PCP on Wed., I'm going to have blood work drawn on Tuesday so he'll have the results by my visit.

If I'm not pg, I need to know so I can see a GYN and figure out why I'm not starting. If it's not a baby, then I def. need to know what's going on! Good luck sweetie!

Yeah, I'm really confused. I'm definitely bleeding now and have a horrible backache from hell. Took a test when I got home, looked at it for a minute or so and - nothing. A few hours later when i went into the bathroom, there was a faint line in the positive window. Don't know, so I'm gonna see how this AF pans out and test in a week or so. Is it possible to get a late/partial AF even if you're pregnant???

Any line appearing on a test after the time limit is not a line.

You can bleed and/or spot while pregnant, and it does not mean you're going to miscarry.

Take another test, but before you do, set a timer. Check the instructions, but say it's a ten minute test, set your timer for 9:30, and allow yourself thirty seconds to examine the test. Then rip it up or destroy it if it's negative. That way, you won't be tempted. I use the internet cheapies, and I just scratch the paper coating off with my nail. Takes one scratch.

That way, if I want to obsess, I just take another strip out....

I think that's what's called an "evaporation line" maybe? That's why the instructions tell you not to read it after a certain time.

I definitely obsess over them, but I think I'm going to just call the scoreboard:
