Rare cycle

Had a really weird cycle behind me, even though he's normally super stable.
March 8th: 6 days of period.
March 19th: pink blood drops? And I should ovulate on March 22nd. Did some good timing then, among other things.
Later, from March 26th to 29th: brown discharge and blood, but very little. The panty liner was way too much. April 1st: cramps, and April 2nd: quite a bit of bleeding. That means it looks like it in the toilet. The pad was less than usual normally. Now I have no idea what dates to stick to.
Today for the first time an ovulation test and there were clearly 2 lines. This afternoon I did some timing right away... hoping it works out this way. Does anyone recognize this?

    I don't recognize it. Have you taken a pregnancy test yet? It happens that some women bleed during pregnancy... your test is really positive, but an ovulation test also reacts to pregnancy.

    Hi lady,
    I find it bizarrely normal, super stable.
    I tested on March 31st, April 1st, and after 2 days of bleeding, all negative.
    Checked ovulation 3 days.
    No idea when to test for pregnancy again. Always disappointed with a negative result.

    April 11th was apparently the positive test. So from April 11th, you add 14 days to get the date when you'd expect your period again. If your period doesn't come on that day, you can test for pregnancy.

    That would be April 25th.

    Ok, thanks, but that does mean that cycle was extremely short, so...
    I'll wait and see and test if necessary

    How long have you been off contraception?

    That probably isn't the issue then. I'd just keep track of everything for 3 months anyway. Like when you've had bleeding and stuff, and how long your cycle is. And if there's still confusion after that, pay a visit to your GP.

    I've also been having a really weird cycle. First, I got my period for 5 days. Then a few normal days, and suddenly a bit of bright red blood, followed by a few days of brown discharge with brown streaks... I already did a pregnancy test but it was negative... I'm now on day 31 of my cycle. Today, the ovulation test was almost positive.

    Exciting, but comparable. I had bleeding starting from the last day, April 2nd, with the peak after 9 days. Exciting. Will this be your first?

    Yes indeed..
    No, for us it's the second one.
    We have a daughter; she turned 7 yesterday.

    How nice, congratulations! I'm really curious if it worked out for you too.

    Thank you.. yeah, we'll just have to wait and see.. the ovutest was lighter again this morning.. doesn't really show up, I think.
