Hi I am a mum to 3 but neva had an implantation bleed I had sex on Friday ( sorry if to much info) and I started bleeding lightly today and I'm not due on for another two weeks, first it was red now it's turned brown with tint dark brown spots in it witch I have neva experienced before I'm also geting light cramps like the start of a period, I was wondering if any1 else has had this and whether it could be an implantation bleed, can anybody help

hey - i just learned something new. implantation may take place after 8 days or whatever but apparently implantation bleeding comes when implantation is complete, around 14 days after ovulation. here's a weblink that seeks to explain:
www.femalehealthmadesimple.com/FileSixFinal.html

i saw a study that said 84% of a sample of 118 women had implantation 8-10dpo. anything later than that was associated with pregnancy loss. so rosiei, 9dpo is definitely not too late. i've never had implantation bleeding in my two pregnancies that went on to miscarry but i believe it is usually described as light pink/brown spotting, rather than red blood. baby dust.

what about watery bright red blood when normally you get a few days of spotting before a period?

Hello

New here.

I have been ttc now for a couple of months. I am 9dpo but had a small bleed this morning. The bleeding seems to have stopped now and I have a slight stomach ache. I never have any period pains. Is 9days dpo to late to be implantation bleed? I do have some pg sysmptoms, saw boobs and feeling sick. What do you think?

Hooray for Marne!!!

Hi i had this a few days ago, thought i had come on, took a test this morning and i am pg.

Bev, I think you can have a little bleed when the egg has been released from the ovary. Are you sure you got your ovulation day correct?

Hi everyone
According to FF ovulated 3 days ago but had slight bleed this morning 3 dpo and far too early for a period, could it be implantation bleed, surely that would be too early wouldnt it. Really worried as dont know what it is. Can someone help put my mind at rest please.

Anyone?

Still bleeding this morning but no period or other pain

Hi - have been TTC for a while. Period finished last week. Cycle normally 32 days. Today had a whoosh of blood - filled a sanitary towel - then passed a large clot. What could this be? M/c? Implantation bleed?

TIA

Hi - my doctor said that I had an implantation bleed and this was confirmed by the hospital. It happened about a week after my period would have been due - lasted for one day and was enough blood to soak through a tampax - really thought I was starting my period. Didn't have any cramps though..

HTH

My AF hasn't returned yet - dd is 5 months. I noticed some brownish staining a few days ago. Am wondering whether this is just a very light first period or whether I could be pg. I did notice some gloopy clear stuff last weekend and we aren't using any contraception and I am doing mixed feeding and weaning so I guess its possible. What do you think??? Have also had a lot of headaches....

I had unprotected sex about 3 days ago and today I started to bleed lightly but my period is not yet due for 2 weeks. Am I pregnant ?

Just a bit of spotting, about exactly when AF was due. Only in 1st pregnancy.

I assumed I had implantation bleeding with my first pregnancy as I had spotting about 3 days after conception - think this is the time the egg starts to implant, so assumed that's what it was. Didn't get it next 2 times.

Hi, I'm 8 1/2 weeks pregnant with my first baby, my period is due today and I have light red bleeding, I had cramps for last 2 days (but thought it was wind as it felt like that), and I still feel sick as have done everyday for last 3 weeks....midwife has booked me in for a scan tomorrow. Not sure what to think right now....

freddiecat, what does that mean?? the reason I ask is because I could have killed my dh at the weekend and my shirts are tight and my boobs ache like mad

do your boobs hurt?
are shirts strangely too tight?

I had some bleeding after my last period with my 2nd pregnancy. In fact I assumed it was my next period as it lasted a couple of days and I didn't think till afterwards that it had been very light. I guess I was about 5 weeks pregnant then and my cycle was around 35 days. dd was born big and healthy at 42 weeks.

I had it with first pg, I think. About a week after ov and a week before I expected my period. Reddish and light but more than just spotting, although I only needed pantyliners. HTH.

I bled very lightly, spotting really, @ 8 days after ov. It lasted a few days and I did a +++ pg test at 10 dpo.

Good luck whoever you are!

I had threatened miscarriage/implantation bleeding with DD (first pregnancy) at 8,9 and 10 weeks. In all cases the bleeding was bright red and then faded to brown within a couple of days before stopping. I experienced no cramps at all. I then had a miscarriage very early on at 7 weeks when the bleeding was heavier and prolonged with cramping. With DS the pregnancy was different again and I experienced no bleeding at all! I hope that this may have been some use to you.
