CAN IMPLANTATION BLEEDING BE HEAVY?

HAS ANYONE HAD ANT HEAVY IMPLANTATION BLEEDING? I OVULATED ON THE 6 AND 7TH AND HAD INTERCOURSE RIGHT ON TIME, BUT YESTERDAY THE 17TH I STARTED SPOTTING SOME PINK DISCHARGE, THEN BROWNISH, THEN BRICK RED, AND FINALLY LIKE A REGULAR PERIOD (MEDIUM-HEAVY)WITH SOME SMALL CLOTS. ALSO MY BREAST LOOK REALLY WEIRD, I HAVE DEVELOP SOME SMALL PIMPLE LIKE BUMPS AROUND MY NIPPLE AREA. IM REALLY WORRIED, BECAUSE MY PERIOS WAS DUE IN TEN DAYS. WHAT'S HAPPENING? I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE IMPLANTAION BLEEDING BUT IM NOT SURE HELP!

Hi My period was meant to start 6 days ago but for 4 days I've been spotting light red blood on pad and when I wipe only a small amount I could wear a pad all day and it still would not fill it up but it seem to stopped now and temp is still high and my cervix is high and soft .I did a test and it was negertive and I'm not having any cramps. Could I be pregnant ? X

I can't believe this thread has lasts more then 5 years. I've read 75% of the pages and I can't believe how many NEED a reply but never post their outcome. Here is my problem and in 8 days when I take a pregnancy test or if my symptoms stop completely before I test I will keep you updated.

My fertile window past 6 days ago. In the past 6 days I've had a lot of  tingling sensations in my breast and nipples, I think I'm urinating more then usual, Slight nauseousness here and there and I'm tired. Day 5 past ovulation, I thought I started implantation bleeding. I had sharp right pelvic pain about 30 minutes before the bleeding. The implantation bleeding was Brownish with what looked like a few strings. About 20 minutes after that I felt wetness and checked again and it was a lot more; brownish smear on toilet paper on 3 wipes. Slight cramping followed this. That all happened before 7:30 pm.  I went to bed around midnight. Nothing really until next morning. I had a few brownish streaks. After I started moving around I felt more wetness and when I checked I expelled a few tiny clots that were a darker red. There really wasn't a blood flow with it. I've had cramping on and off with mild lower back pain too. A few hours have past and nothing. I know this isn't a period because, even though my period is light, it's consistent. There is always blood.
BUT
I don't know if this is implantation bleeding, a cyst bursting, failure of the egg implanting and expelling   (miscarriage) or a strange period that's  a week early. It's to soon to test. As soon as I know anything, or if my bleeding increases - streaks - smears etc, or if my pregnancy symptoms stop I'll keep you updated. My ovulation tracker says I can test in 8 days. So from now until 8 days I will repost.

For those of you reading if you're going to post about your fears and concerns, it would be nice even if your outcome is painful and depressing TELL us. When you posted you were scared and worried. You know how we feel so by posting you may ease someone's hardship. Don't be selfish.

Throwing baby dust to all who need it. Think positive and have happy thoughts. Happiness will find you!  

If ANY can give me any input I would appreciate it. I have been trying for a very long time and I'm excited, scared and now worried.

Thank you

Since I've been writing I've had to stop twice to pee. ... My fingers and toes are crossed. I remain hopeful and I'm meditating to stay calm. I don't want stress to add to this. Maybe by being positive I can influence positive energy for a positive outcome....?

To confirm my post ... The signs I was having were pms symptoms heighten because my period came early. I'm relieved because now I can try again with a clean slate. Good luck everyone.

Im 21 years old and Two week ago between my periods i had a Heavy dark brown discharged. i had read then that it could had been a implantation bleeding so i took a pregnancy test and it said i was pregnant and then i read that i could have had a miscarriage . now two week later i just got off my period a day and a half ago not I'm on birth control and my period still aren't regular i have a period for as little as a half a day to three days at the most.  But i just got off my period like i said and me and my boyfriend had protected sex last night and i woke up with a lot of Brown discharge in my underwear and when i went to the bathroom it was still coming out but it also had blood in it. but iv had cyst on my ovaries since i was 16 but they all seem to pass during my period. SO it not un-normal for me to had pain in that area. but these last two time iv had this brown discharge ( which iv had a brown discharge before when i was younger) iv had this disconfert down there and i dont know whats going on but if some one had this same problem and told me what happened or what they did to fix it. I just don't know if this time is from me just getting off of my period r if it something more serious.

My period is a little weird, but last month it was just dark brown spotting, we weren't trying for a baby then. But a couple of weeks ago we started trying and I've been feeling extra tired, much back ache, my calendar said I ovulated on the 11 of this february and we had bare sex on the 15, we weren't checking ovulating dates then so maybe we missed our window? But then yesterday the 15 I was having a lot more than usual clear discharge, it was brownish so were like hey maybe the calendar is wrong and I'm ovulating now, so we gave it a go and i don't know if it was because of roughness or my period coming but about 3-4 hours later I had fresh blood and I wiped and thought it was just going to be a wipe but in the morning I feel as though my period (blood coming out) (feeling that since yesterday) and checked and it was a bit of a lot of brown old looking blood

can anyone tell what's happening? i am bleeding right now like having a menstrual period but supposed to be a week before having it. At first it was like a pinkish in color then it turned brown after 5 hours it turned red the next morning it got heavier like normal period but its unusual because the cramping and bleeding are just light unlike the previous period the cramps are too painful. I have a regular period 28 days cycle but now its earlier than before

I was 4 days late for my normal menstrual cycle, I was showing all the notmal pregnancy symptoms, last night at about 12:30 I started to bleed, it is a dark red and is moderately heavy. Could this be implantation bleeding or just my normal period ?

I'm a bit confused. On Sunday last I had brownish discharge. Then on Monday I had nothing. Tuesday it started off brown. Then In the night it gradually became red. It lasted for 5 days just like a normal period with a bit of cloths. I've taken a pregnancy test but it's neg. I don't  know. Could I be pregnant. I even have heartburn and feeling really thirsty.

I have 2 kids and I too had dicidual bleeding for the first trimester with both my boys but i also tested clearly positive when i suspected pregnancy (about 8 weeks) i would be past 8 weeks now if i was. I took sevrral hpts and got mixed results. my doctor ran bloodwork and the result was neg. My doctor said its normal womans bodies change or that i might have been pregnant and lost it. But i havent had a proper bleed since sept.. Just 2 days of watery spotting. Just like when i was pregnant.  I dont even need a pad. Just when i wipe. If i have miscarried then why hasnt it released the lining? I havent clotted with these 'periods' at all. I have no idea but its DEFINATLY NOT NORMAL. i had all my hormones tested and a pap which all came back fine. Im 28. Not wanting to be pregnant but i cant seem to accept that this is supposed to be normal. Fuhhkk im so sensitive i never ever thought i would want my period so badly. To anyone wondering about heavy implantation i think what you are trying to ask about is dicidual bleeding. (For me )every month for 3 months it got less and less and the first month could have almost been considered normal.  my sister actually bled quite heavily and was told she most likely miscarried but now has a 10 month old daughter.
