For the past two days I have had some bleeding, but only when I wipe. I'ts really bright red and kind of slimy...Sorry for too much info...Any one know what this might be? I also took a hpt last night and there is a real faint 2nd line (which would be positive).

take another test first thing in the morning, if the lines still there then ur pregnant although any line whether faint or not usually means your pregnant but u might get a more distinct line in the morning with ur first urine. I neve rhad implantation bleeding so iw ouldnt know. But it seems that you are pregnant

1st its "im" not "inplantation" and second its impossible to implant and get a positive....Implantation happens before ur expected period and besides ib is not common . You cant get a positive while implanting because ur not pregnant yet.

Emma I hate to tell you but your actually wrong. Implantation is when the fertalized egg implants its self to your cervix wall. You're actually pregnant .B.E.F.O.R.E. That. When the sperm meets and fertalizes the egg which happens about 6 days before then. It takes those days for you fertalized egg to travel through the falopian tubes and reach the cervix. That's why some doctors say your actually pregnant 41 weeks because they go by date of actuall conception. A 40 week based pregnancy is from date of implantaion. So its not that she isn't pregnant yet cause if she is experiencing implantation she has been pregnant for the past week. The only thing is most .H.P.T. Can't track the hcg hormones that early.
Personally I had implantation bleeding right around the time I was to start my period. It lasted about a day. It was dark and a little thick the first time and then it lightened up and looked kinda like disscharge and blood. (sorry for the .T.M.I.) when the spotting just stopped I got a little confussed so I went & bought a 2 pack pregnancy test (the brand name .Answer .Pregnancy .Test) I took the first one that afternoon around 6pm and it came back negative. Waited 6 days to take the other one took it first thing that morning and .B.A.M. 2 lines.
I was way early though . . . I made my appt. For the next day went in they did the blood work and urine test and everything came back that I was pregnant. They did an ultrasound and there was nothing. That's how early I was. About 1 and a half weeks or 2 weeks.
Everyones different but to me it sounds like there is a possobility it could be implantation.
I say wait a few days take another test with first morning urine and see what happens.
Keep us updated on what happens.
Good luck

i hate to tell you but youre actually wrong...A pregnancy is only established oncve you have fully implanted on the uterine wall and that is when you start producing hcg the pregnancy hormone...

i've never heard anyone mention a 41 week pregnancy unless they're overdue. And a 40 week pregnancy is based on your last period, if they went by conception wouldn't it be a 38 week pregnancy?

I'm so confused.

emma is correct! Your body would never know it was pregnant and therefore would not produce hcg until after implantation. You cannot test positive (faint or not) until after implantation and your body has had the opportunity to make hcg. This is why you are not supposed to test until your period is due - to make sure to give everything a chance to come together.

Wow that should tell you something about the people teaching pregnancy classes in texas.
But. . . Yea ok. I get it now.
I still say if she believes she is then she should at least retest in a few days.
