How soon after implantation bleeding can I take a home pregnancy test?

Hello,
I have had many signs of pregnancy like, swollen and tender boobs, stomach cramps on the left side, constant diziness and a few light headaches. My last period started on May 13th and I started on June 12th with a very light period. I typically have very heavy periods and this time it is light. I have read all about Implantation bleeding and not sure if that is what I am going thru.  I have heard many things and not sure which to believe. I have heard to wait 2 weeks after i stop bleeding to take a test, some say ok to test while bleeding and others say to wait a few days after I stop. Im not really trying to get pregnant but I would be happy if I was. Anyone have any advice? My periods have never been regular but my husband and I are stressed wondering if i am pregnant. Im thinking it wont hurt to test now while bleeding, in a few days after i stop and then maybe again in a few weeks. Thank you for all your help.

Alright guys, I'm freaking out a tad bit... Today is Monday Sept.27th my period ended last thursday I've had sex 3 times since then. Used the pull out method the first time the last two started without one and then put one on so he could finish.. But today I started bleeding a little bit not enough to use a tampon or a pad just like when I wiped there was a little bit of blood. I have one child already and this happened then too except then I thought my period was on its way and then it just never came. Can I honestly have become pregnant so quickly after my period and if so could I have if he didn't actually ejaculate in me? Please help ease my mind with any answers you guys may have : ) thanks

It is now Sept. 25, I had my last period around the 24 of August. Two days ago, I should have started my period, which I thought that I would because when I went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was a little bit of pinkish color blood, but it only did it twice when I went to the bathroom, and I had the symptoms like cramps, headaches,fatigue, what could this mean? Could I be pregnant? My fiance and I never really use conoms, always the pull out method. HELP !!!! How long should I take a pregnancy test, should I take one at all?
