Question about implantation bleeding

I don't want to get any hopes I may have up but I am so confused as to what is going on with my cycle.

I thought I got AF yesterday (CD 31) it was dark brown color, not alot at all. This morning I had nothing. Now I know brown is old blood, but could this be implantation? I feel a cramp low in my abdomen too but I attributed that to AF. When I got pregnant last time I had implantation bleeding but it was a very light pink spotting. I really don't want to test and get my hopes up.

Re: Question about implantation bleeding

I never had IB - if I spotted it was because AF was coming. And there was once month where I spotted for 2 days then stopped. I tested the next day and as I was peeing... there was AF

I would wait at least another few days. It could be IB but I would hate to see you waste a test!

Could be! But like pp said, I'd definitely wait it out. Last month I started with brown cm on 8dpo and I was it was IB. I tested 10DPO and about a half hour later AF reared her ugly head. I SOOOO hope that's not the case for you!

Okay, I hope it is for you! I had it and didn't realize what it was. I thought I was getting my period, Kev & I fooled around and their was blood like AF was coming. So usually after fooling around and expecting my period it comes with in 14 to 24hrs. I had AF like cramps the whole week (I was positive AF was coming) and was carrying around tampons. Well, she never came and after a week passed I took a test and I got my BFP.
I hope you get your BFP, I need you!!!!

Oh, and I also had this whitish CM before I got the BFP. I'll call you later "fingers crossed"

Re: Question about implantation bleeding

I had it with my last pregnancy, and it started out for me a pink blood. Not alot, but enough to where I needed to wear a pantyliner. Throughout that day I continued to have brown spotting, then the next day, it was gone. I took a test that evening on a FRER after holding my urine for 4 hours, and I got a positive.

Good luck to you!

Re: Question about implantation bleeding

I would test. My last pregnancy I had a few drops of brown blood when AF was due but then it stopped and I tested that day and got a BFP.

Good luck!!

Re: Question about implantation bleeding

When I got pregnant with #1, I had this on the day AF was due, so I assumed it was my period. It was brown, like a stain. When it stopped, I knew something was up. I tested and got my positive the next morning.

I really hope this is it for you!
