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

[Buderfly82]

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.

Hi. My name is Rhea, The last date of my period was aug 10th and it ended aug 16th. It is now september 3 and in the last couple days I have noticed Cramping like I may start my period but it would be a week early, some pinkish discharge, and Oh yeah the pregnancy test I took, that I know I took too early but still had a very faint positive line but so faint that I dont know what it means. Please some one help!!! does it sound like I could be pregnant or Im I just over reacting?

Hey everybody, well i dont have any children as yet. I always wanted a baby... Now it happens that i had sex a week before my period, i didnt know i could have gotten pregnant but im in my fertile age, 20, a week later i started having cramps, flu like symptoms, a higher temperature, and 2 days ago, i noticed a brown discharge, then it spotted, but only when i wiped. However, it came on like a very light period, im on glucophage, but i found out i didnt get pregnant all along because it was my bf, im fertile... But could i be pregnant?

it's probably just your period getting back into the swing of things. i wouldn't worry about it too much until next month... see if your period shows up normal; if not voice your concerns to your doctor again.  there might be a possibility that you could be pregnant again. every pregnancy is different, might be implantation bleeding.

I have 3 children already and since having my 3rd baby 4.5 months ago i havent had my period back , got it at 3 months and 6 weeks with the older two. i am breast feeding but that didnt mean anything last time. and i didnt get implantation bleeding with the 3 kids i have. but 2 weeks ago i had a very small amount of brown blood when using the tiolet, and then on sat i had a samll amount of red blood again on monday and then tuesday i had a very very small amount of brown watery stuff. i saw the doc yest and he said he thinks its just my period coming back but ive never experienced this kinad thing before, it usually comes on a very regular basis and once it comes it hear to stay for a week or so and then gone again. its weird. and comments are appreciated.
