As I mentionned in a previous post I had
sex on august 19 and 20th, which I
beleived to be my most fertile days.
Well today I began spotting brownish
colored blood, but my period isn't due
until september 10th (i have long cycles).
Is this a sign of pregnancy?? I should
also mention that I never spot brownish
blood...It is also bright red. I know
that implantation bleeding is normal, but
isn't it only suppose to occur close to
your period...Not 10 days before??
Also, since I am already spotting and
having cramps, do you think a hpt would
show anything yet??

Hello zanzu,
yes that sounds like
implantation bleeding! It doesn't have
to be near your af dates. I have read
alot of post where women get it 10 or so
days before their periods? Have u had
any other syptoms!
I wouldn't say test would show up yet?
But if u try the early predictor test that
can detect 10 in hcg. These are for
early pregnany!

Meez! Posted: 09-02-05 16:27pm
I have had cramps for the last two weeks,
but I don't start my period for another 3
days. I've been feeling nausea sense this
morning. I got off my birth control on my
last period. And yes I would love 2 be
pregant, but am i? I'm so confused. The
doctor says I have a slim chance of being
pregnant, but who knows. Anyway, my last
period was august 5th. I think if I did
concieve it was around the 17th &
18th. You tell me what u think????

Hi serena,
yes it is normal to spot
before your periods! As u had sex, it
usually takes 5 - 7 days for the egg to be
fertilised and to travel to the womb. At
this time, it starts to attached itself to
the womb causing implatation bleeding!
This is usually 10 days or near around the
time af is due!
Have u taken an pregnancy test yet? It
may show up now! You may aswell do it
now!

I took an hpt yesterday and it was
positive...But now i'm a little worried
because I think I may have been bleeding
too much for it to be just implantation
bleeding. I am going yo see my doctor on
friday, so hopefully I will find out that
everything is alright.
Any advice on how to tell my mother?? I
am 21 years old, working and in a stable
relationship, but I think she wanted me to
wait until I was completely settled and
married. What would be the best way to
tell her?? She won't be mad or anything,
but I want it to be happy news...Not
dissapointing news. (of course I will
wait until after my doctor's appoitment).

Hi zanzu,
well first of all congratulations.
No matter what happens, your mother is
your mother and she will understand!
Just tell her - i'm sure she will be as
happy as u are.
After all mothers went through the same
thing when they were our age! I'm not
sure what u could do to make it a happy
surprise but i'm sure it won't be
dissapointing! And good luck with the
doctor appt:. Let me know how u get
on?
