WAS IT IMPLANTATION BLEEDING???!!! HELP!!!

by Tara R., Feb 25, 2006 12:00AM
My period was due around the 21st of Feb.  I did spot a little  brown discharge that day, which made me think it was coming, but then I had some light red discharge when I went to the bathroom. It happened one more time, then after that it was brown.  Now it has stopped.  I don't have any other symptoms really.  I just notice that my PMS symptoms are fading like the bloating and feeling like my period is coming.  I usually get a headache a week before and I didn't get it.  Oh, I took a hpt like a day or two after I should have gotten it and it was negative. It wasn't the first morning urine, though.  Could it be too early?  What does this sound like to you?

implantion bleding is when the ovum implants itself into the uterus. it happens approx. 8-12 days past ovulation. i would retest in a couple of days!

are you on any birth control or taking any new meds? its only the 25th so your period is just a few days late. periods can be crazy like that.
when did you have unprotected intercourse?

by Tara R., Feb 25, 2006 12:00AM
No, I'm not on any birth control pills.  We use condoms, but there was one time when we didn't earlier this month.  I don't remember the exact day.

by Tara R., Feb 25, 2006 12:00AM
I'm usually very regular.  I've had 3 miscarriages in a row.  Most of the time when it happens like this, I am pregnant.  I just wanted to make sure it sounded like that to somebody else.

it only happens in a handfull of women not many of us even get this some women are under the impression its a deffinate sign but like i said 1 in 50 people probly experience this dont now the exact number but i no alot of women having babys around the age i am now babys everywhere i never had it with my 2 pregnancys either goodluck.

I had spotting like you did about a week before my period was due and now I'm sure I'm pregnant.  Hpt are still saying negative, but I'm 2 months along.  I read somewhere that bleeding early in pregnancy can make hcg levels stay lower longer, for some odd reason.  I would say you sound very pregnant!  Just don't loose heart if you don't get a positive for ahwile.

Just curious, did you have a blood test to confirm or are you going on instinct?
And I hope the original poster gets the result you are hoping for! Good luck--J

So does implantation bleeding occur before your period or when your would expect your period?  I started the spotting when I should have gotten it.  I keep feeling like it's coming, but it won't.  I've had three miscarriages in a row.  I have a 5 year old, but I have't been able to keep one since.  I think my problem is low hcg levels.

Thank you all for your responses.  I hope this time things work out in our favor!

befor your period usually i heard it takes anywhere from 2 days to 10 days to implant so if it was late implantation it could happen around your af good luck.

I always had regular periods and one day i spotted for a day and i didn't get a positive test for a little over a week

I had what I thought was my period on July 14. It lasted about 1/2 day. It was more liek spotting. I spotted a couple more days on and off. More like discharge. I thought it was a light period. On Aug 13 I missed my period. I just found out earlier this week I am pregnant. Do you think I was pregnant when I thought I had my July period? Or if it had been implantation blleding would it have been earlier?

Hello everyone.. i am very confused here. I have been reading a lot on this implantation bleeding. But anyway, heres my situation. Right now is usually about when i get my period so there is just something a little different this time, it is definately not as heavy. If i were to not wear a tampon then i would only have a few spots in my undies. BUT when i go to the bathroom and wipe is when i DO get blood, kinda like the blood when i'm on my period, just maybe not as much. So i'm not sure what to think. I took a first response, but it was negative. Now here's the thing, last time i was pregnant it was the first time, but i also had implantation bleeding maybe for 1-2 days at the most. This time it was about 3. My regular periods last about 3-4 days too. So who knows.. if anyone has more experience in this please let me know what you think, i've unexperienced in this implantation bleeding thing. thanks!! my email is ***@****

hi im very confused about this while thing. my boyfriend and i usually have unprotected sex, but i have never gotten a positive pregnancy test. i started my period about 3 days ago, but i bled on the first day only and its wasn't pink or brown, it looked like normal blood. i still have mild cramps but my breasts aren't sore and i don't have any discharge. do i need to take a test?

What could be going on with my body????? i have been praying like crazy and really talking to my body everyday.....can some one PLEASE help me......any one else who took DEPO?????????

Hi, i hd my last period on september 7th, but it only lasted 2-3 days and was lighter than usual. Well, yesterday, october 31st, when we got back from trick or treating, i really had to pee. When i wiped, i saw a little tiny bit of light light red/pink on the tp. Then i wiped this morning and it was even lighter, like it was barely there. Now its nov 1st in the afternoon, and there has been nomore. Can it be implantation bleeding? My boyfriend and i are trying to conceive and started this month around the beginning of october. Thanks and good luck everyone!!!:)

went to the Dr. last week and was told that I was six weeks pregnant now today I went to the bathroom and noticed brown spoting. is it posable that it is inplantation (implantation) bleeding, should I be worried about miscaraging or is this some what normal?
