implantation bleeding

by bee1213, Mar 01, 2003 12:00AM
can implantation bleeding seem like a regular period or is it just discharge. i am wondering if implatation bleeding can be more than just discharge. about eight days ago my boyfriend and i had unprotected sex and i hadn't taken my birth control in two days and forgt once again to take it that night. i am on a 24 day cycle and my period came one day early, it is way lighter than normal and very light pinkish red, on the second day it stop in the mid afternoon it came back this morning but is still lighter than normal, i an not haveing any cramps at all which is highly unusally i normally get cramps all five days of my period. i am i just worrying to much or could i actually be pregnant and when can i take a home pregnancy test?

Thank You

B.

Yes it is deffinately possible you could be pregnant. I have 2 children and both times I had implantation bleeding which was very similar to a period just a little lighter for a few days. I came off the pill and was pregnant within a month so I am extremely fertile. I actually thought I was having a period,but is it common to have breakthrough bleeding.I hope this has answered your question, Hope everything works out ok for you,let me know how you get on.

Thank you so much for your help. I finished bleeding sunday, that was only four days of light bleeding, when my normal is about six days, I for once had no cramps (which I enjoyed alot).  On Saturday night I took a home pregnancy test and it came up negative, I was disappointed, could that have been because I still had a little bleeding, I hope so. Well do you have any suggestions on if and when I should take another hpt? Well thank you again so much for you help. I hope to here from you again soon.

I noticed that the line on my lower stomach, that starts to show at the hair line of my crotch is getting darker and more noticable, why is that? I always knew it was there but i see it more now and it is darker in color.  Also when I eat anything my stomach gets upset, I don't vomit but I feel sick. Thank you for all of you help.

Hi Bee,

sorry its been so long!!well by now you will probably know if you are pregnant or not!!Sometimes your hormone levels can be quite low for the pregnancy test to show up if you did it quite early on when you were bleeding. That line that your talking about starts from your crotch to you belly button? if so this normally happens when you are pregnant!!anyway, your bleeding was lighter and not as painful as usual so that could be a positive result. If you do a pregnancy test again always do it in the morning this is when you wee is more concentrated and hormone levels will register better...



Anyway hope everythings ok!!sorry its been a while haven`t been too well let me know how your getting on.

Pippy,

I took another hpt on the 8th of March, that was ten days after the bleeding stopped, and got a negative. I was really hoping for a positive.  Well it was nice hearing from you again.  I'm hoping maybe this month is my lucky month.  Thank you for every thing.

Hello,

I am on BC pills, but last month missed several (about 3 or 4) of them because I lost them for a while. I expierenced what I believe to be breakthrough bleeding on and off for about 1 1/2wks. It was lighter, but I did have cramps the first day. It was only about 2 wks after my regular period. So this lasted almost a week until my normal period was supposed to start again. By this time I was back on track with my pills, but I never had my normal period. I was having sex the whole time including when I'd missed pills, so I realize pregnancy is a possiblity. But, could I also not have had my period because I'd had the breakthrough bleeding just before?

Thanks alot.
