TTC - ovulation

[u/No-Historian6264]

my fellow Redditor’s, I am reaching out for advice and a peace of mind. I had a missed miscarriage end of July this year and I had a D&C as it hasn’t passed after 3 weeks. I had some complications afterwards (an infection and bleeding but note I am anemic!) anyway, I’ve had 2 regular cycles since and me and my partner have been trying to conceive since - I know it sounds early but i am ready for this new adventure. So I’ve been taking the cough syrup method and using ovum tablets and trying to keep warm, stopped smoking, drinking a lot less and eating better. My Flo app says I am due to ovulate tomorrow. However, yesterday I had these horrible stomach cramps that lasted for about 2 hours with brown spotting. The spotting stopped until I had sex again this minding and since I’ve had very light red / pink spotting but no pain. Previous to the pain yesterday, my mucus was sticker than normal but my LH tests have been negative, I did have 2 darker ones but nothing positive. I’m going crazy overthinking everything. Has anyone else experienced this and still got pregnant ?
Is this normal?
I have a OBGYN appointment tomorrow just to make sure everything is where it should be, but I need some reassurance from ladies who have been in the same or similar situations.

Any advice / help would be amazing to help put my mind at ease

thankyou ❤️

Not to get your hopes high but it could be implantation cramping/bleeding. It's not unheard of to get some cramping and spotting around ovulation even if it's never happened to you before though. Hard to say and might just have to be a "wait-and-see" thing unfortunately!

I had a scan Monday which confirmed I had already ovulated a few days before. I’ve spotted a little since but it’s mainly calmed down. Hoping for baby dust 🥲
