Implantation bleeding - the truth!!
I have read loads of people on here saying implantation only happens around CD 6 and if its later than that it can't be implantation.
I got implantation on CD27 with my BFP and have got a little bit of spotting today so as is normal I am clutching at straws hoping its implantation so I googled it.
I found this...
Implantation bleeding tends to occur before menstruation is expected, this is usually between six and twelve days after ovulation. Most women experience menstruation approximately 14 days after ovulation however this will depend on your individual cycle.
I have read 3 different sites and all of them say implantation happens around time you expect AF. Just thought I would try and clear it up and keep some hope for myself at the same time.
When I had implantation bleeding I went to the hosptial because it was quite heavy bleeding and after I had got my BFP. The consultant said if everyone's body did what they were supposed to she would be out of a job!! It's something I keep in mind when I am questioning why my body is doing something and I find it quite reassuring!

Amie it does make sense. Cornetto thought she had her AF but it was lighter and shorted than normal and she tested a week later to get her BFP. I think it happens quite often. I am not expecting AF until at least Monday so I am hoping my spotting today was implantation which would make it 2 BFP's and 2 implantation bleeds. From everything I read it is actually quite rare!
This is all very intresting to me. Thank you for your posts. I was sure i was pregnant and was waiting for my partner to come home as he is working away before I tested. We had unprotected sex on holiday at the begining of Oct when i was Ovulating. my cycle is usually 33 days and never late, this month I am on day 41 and have been cramping like my period is about to start. This afternoon I have a light brown discharge and burst in to tears as I just assumed AF had come. Maybe, just maybe its implantation bleeding. Do you get period cramps with implantation bleeding?
When I came off holiday I was really dizzy for a week, my boobs have grown and got darker and I am very weepy. Unless this is all AF symptoms. My partner gets home on Halloween so maybe I'll test then if its not AF if thats not too soon.
i have a regular 30 day cycle and m not on any contreception or pills from the start..
had one delayed period 3 months ago due to stress and travel ( for the first time) and the cycle set in properly ..
on the 20 th january i got cramps and started bleeding pink and brown like regular periods with red blood some times.. my periods wer due on the 25 th jan... and i guess i ovulated on the 10 th..
regarding the period it has lasted for 2.5 -3 days.. and i am using a tampon..
it looks like a period or i am not so sure..
I had it for around 1 week before my period was due
I'm not that convinced by 'implantation' bleeding tbh- I had bleeds roughly every 8 weeks thruout my pregnancy and each time the hospital said it was implantation bleeding!!! Erm even at 31 weeks?? As if! Each time it happened I'd have a scan and internals and no cause was ever seen, cervix was totally closed etc. After I'd given birth to a perfectly healthy baby at 39 weeks they decided it was hormonal and nothing to do with implantation. In other words they had no clue whatsever why I had the bleeds!!
Cantwait, I saw a pinky discharge yesterday when I wiped (I usually put my finger a little up inside because I am so paranoid) I am at 4 weeks, should I be worried?
I'm not a doc but I wud say try not to worry hun, go and get yourself checked out just to be on the safe side. Had u recently done the deed or something? Cos that cud have irritated u a bit? Your gp will be able to advise you, good luck hun xxxx
nope haven't had sex recently lol, hubby is afraid I get an infection he wants to ask the doc but I will see him in 3 weeks!! I am monitoring the spotting, nothing usually throoughout the day just once yesterday and a microscopical pink this morning.
Hi me and my partner have been TTC now 4 2 months and i have had a slight very dark bbrown bleed just 2 day at 6pm exactly it's sticky like and noly noticable when i wipe nothing there on my pad as yet anyway! I wonder if it is implantation bleed i am 12 dpo i have felt different and so done a test last wk but obviously 2 early lol i am due on approx 1st May, haven't really noticed much but just 1 thing has stood out 2 me the area around my nipple has darkened but other than that i have no other symptons, could this be a implantation bleed or am i just wishful thinking???
Hi, So I had a mirena for 3 years and my fiance and i are ttc again. I just got my mirena out on March 14..and on April 20 (I was ovulating btw) I had unprotected sex. The very next day I started bleeding heavily but it only lasted heavy for 2 days then very light on the 3rd day then completely stopped on the 4th. Since then Ive been experiencing headaches, frequent urination, sometimes i have a sharp pain in my breast, extremely thirsty, little episode of being nauseous, Ive been having a weird feeling in my abdomen area sometimes a pulling feeling..I dont really know how to explain it..and yesterday I started having a increase in discharge and its ALOT..it looks kind of milky..like white and very runny..and its so much it feels like I wet my pant (tmi sorry!). I took a hpt this morning and it came up negative. So idk what is going on or if its normal or if i might be pregnant, please someone help me! lol
Hi
i have had loads of pregnancy symptoms. I'm 9po and started to bleed. It's red blood and more than spotting. Didn't get any signs it was coming like I would before a period. My period is due in 5 days time. I really hope this is implantation bleeding but everything I read says they only get spotting. I'm really upset and starting to tell myself I can't be pregnant. Has anybody had period like blood and it has been implantation? Really need reassurance. Getting cramps too.
Hi I am the same I have been ttc for 3 years now, I have recently given up smoking and this month I got bleeding 9 days befor my period is due, I had no symptoms that it was going to happen and so far it has lasted 5days but has become lighter. I am slightly worried about it and am not convinced its implantation bleeding as I only gave up smoking 3 weeks ago and I know it can improve you chances of conceiving but I'm not convinced it can that quickly. In the last 3 years I have had quithe regular periods so have never been this early befor. I'm slightly worried and not sure I want to start believing it could be implantation as don't want to get my hopes up.
