Christy,
You should be able to post any further questions you have later this evening. I ended up answering questions that I normally would have answered today quite late last night. (I knew I'd have limited time online today due to it being my son's birthday weekend.) So there's a longer "maxed out" time.
I'll be anxious to hear back from you when you can get through! :-)

Dear Christy,

Well it sounds as if you're having some definite irregularity. The bleeding you had 10/31-11/2 (if I've figured that right) could have been a period or it could have been implantation bleeding, if it was lighter/shorter in duration than normal. It depends on when you would have conceived.

If you think it was a normal period, then you would use 10/31 as Day 1 of your cycle, starting all over again. The fertile window would then be approximately 11/10-11/20 and the next period anticipated around 11/27 (based on a 28 day cycle - so adjust as necessary based on your normal cycles).

I hope that answers your question and helps you! Please feel free to write again with any further questions.

Brenda
