Implantation bleeding before period
Posted: 03-29-08 14:44pm

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to figure out if what I have is implantation bleeding... my period ended on the 15th of March, and yesterday I was feeling cramping like I was going to get my period, then I got this reddish brown light spotting mixed with discharge.. I used a tampon thinking I was going to start and when I got home from work an hour later I noticed it had COMPLETELY stopped. However the cramps went on ALL NIGHT!

Today I still have some mild cramping and now I'm getting spotting again - however this time its a very pinkish tinge.. this is just freaking me out because my periods are always on time every month and I know I am not due for my period yet!

I took a pregnancy test last night and it was negative but then I read the packet & it mentioned that it only works up to 5 days before your missed period. Oops. I'm not even close to that date yet!

What do you ladies think?

Thanks!

you would be ovulating now if you have a normal 28 day cycle, after ovulation it takes 5-10 days for implantation, also implantation bleeding, while fairly common, isnt as common as many people think

are you trying to get pregnant?

Her period ended on the 15th, not started.. so doesn't that mean she ovulated a few days ago, around the 24th? I get confused with all this.. but I think implantation bleeding could happen about now. I never had it though, so sorry if I'm wrong!

wow thanks, i didnt see that, i read it as started im so use to only caring when it starts ya know lol

hmm there is no telling then because not everyone has the same length of bleeding you know, so depending on when it started it COULD be but not nessesarly, it could really be a lot of things

if your still here undertow5 it would really help if we knew when your period STARTED
