     I spotted with just a touch of red blood after using the restroom on 10dpo and have had a tinge of color on the paper here and there and now I have a bit of color on my underwear. My temps are still high and going up as of 12dpo, I have a beta in the morning, I just would love to here any good stories relating to spotting.
