Pregnancy tests, ovulation and ovulation tests
Pseudocyesis or something else?
Simone008
Hi everyone,
I usually have a 30-day cycle. My ovulation is typically around day 18 (I track my temperature and see a clear difference), and my period starts 12 days later. I know this because I tracked my temperature a lot a few years ago, did ovulation tests, and was monitored. I eventually had a healthy son
On January 15th, I started bleeding around 10:30 PM. I count the 16th as day 1. From February 5th onwards, my temperature was high, so ovulation was likely on Feb 3rd/4th. Yesterday morning I had some brown discharge, so I thought my period was coming. But then nothing else happened. My temperature is still high, and the test this morning was completely negative.
My gut feeling told me it was a hit. Can that thought really delay your period? Any ideas? Has anyone ever had brown discharge, nothing the next day, and then got their period anyway?
Would love to hear from you.
Best wishes

Your psyche has a huge influence. I once had a period where I had a bit of brown discharge for a short time. When I discussed this with my midwife, she said that this can just happen sometimes. So you’d get your period again next month. Or your test might only turn positive after a week because not everyone gets an instant clear positive result. Unfortunately, you’ll have to be patient a bit longer.
