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.

Supposed to get my period approx. on the 5th. Nothing happened, waited until the 7th to take a test; negative. 8th and 9th, very very light pink when using the restroom. 10th, had brown "period" in the morning, then occasionally for the rest of the day. But mostly the light pink when using the restroom. Same for the morning of the 11th. But then: NADA for the rest of the day. What the heck am I supposed to think/do?

We have been TTC for 2 years now.My LMP was on 13/04/2010 though on the 5/05/2010 I had spotting with cramps which went on for 3 days. I did a HPT which was negative.Boobs are sore and I am a bit moody last few days. No nausea yet, just sluggishness. I am keeping my fingers crossed till the 15/05/2010 when my periods are supposed to be due:)

You should test the day of missed period to be sure.  I had spotting the entire week before my period, it stopped on the day of my period.  I tested on a Thursday and my period was due that Saturday and it was negative.  I waited until that following Monday to test and it was positive, I know it is hard but be patient and you can save a little money on those PG tests ;)
