Could I be pregnant?

I had intercourse with my partner a week ago, we used a condom but it came off in the middle of it we put it back on but finished not long after as we got a bit scared. I have had cramps something like period pain but not just as strong, feeling dizzy and light headed since, I put it down to being nervous about getting pregnant, I had my last period on the 24th August so I am not due it for another week. Today I had a pink/redish discharge which I have never had before, I done some research and a few sites have said it could be the implantation so im really scared, I know there is a chance I could be pregnant but its too soon to do a test just yet I have a pregnancy test which tells you 3 days before your period is due. I am not good with the pregnancy stuff if it has only implanted today will it show up if i am pregnant or not?

I am due my period today. Usually I have it when i wake up but was nothing this morning, about a hour ago I had a few drops of blood but more of a pinky colour and alot of clear/white discharge, I have never had spotting before, I have been having cramps in lower stomach which is normal for me when im on my period, plus back pain and cramps in my right side. I done a pregnancy test last Monday which was negative and another on Thursday, I used 1 that tells you up to 4 days before your period is due but it was also negative, could I still be pregnant? Im really scared now, all week ive been thinking if I was I wouldnt mind but now that my period doesnt know if its coming or going im stressing which I know isnt helping. Has anyone else had these signs and been pregnant?

Pregnancy is a possibility if intercourse was around the time of your ovulation. If you are stressed that can delay ovulation and your period. Your best time for testing would be to wait until the day your period is due before testing. If you skip your period go ahead and take a test first thing when you wake up, first morning urine(fmu) has the highest concentration of the pregnancy hormone hcg. If you have a Dollar Tree store out by you you can get a test there and it works just as good as a test from somewhere else but don't cost a fortune. I know it isn't easy but you need to try and not think about it and relax. The more stress the more likely you are to skip or delay your period. I hope everything works out for you.

If it is implantation bleeding, there are tests available that can detect 20ml/u (really sensitive) that should be about 2-3 days after implantation or 9-12 days after ovulation (average woman is 14 days before period to ovulate, take expected next period and subtract 14 days). Wait a few days and test. If negative, wait till your period is due.
