Implantation bleed or just random bleed?

So I've been ttc for a year next month, and have pretty much given up on my body actually getting pregnant.

but today I got some bleeding. I'm on cd21 of a cycle which varies between 27 and 31 days. So definitely too early to be the normal day before period start bleed.

It was definitely period-like blood, but very light. No pain or hormones other than a back twinge that could have been because I was slouching. So doesn't feel like period.

I had lots of mid-cycle bleeds when on pill, but haven't had after body settled down after it. But I have had (do have) endometriosis and endometrial cysts, so I wouldn't rule out a ' normal' mid-cycle bleed.

but I really hope it's finally am implantation bleed. is it too early, or could it be?! I really hope so as I get married in two weeks and it would be the best present to my lovely DP!

and if it could be am implantation bleed when can I test?! But I would want to keep it a surprise as I could tell DP on the morning of the wedding... He's even broodier than me!

advice welcomed, thanks in advance :)

It could be, try testing in a few days if you can hold off that long! Have you tried taking your temps and charting to maximise your chances of conceiving? This would also tell you if you were likely to be pregnant before any test. Link below. Congratulations on your edding and good luck!

thanks bouncy, I'm away from sunday to wednesday, so if it doesn't develop into AF I will test when I get back on Thursday :)

I've not worried about charting yet as I don't want to over-analyse it just yet. But might resort to it soon...

Today it's just been the odd bit of blood on wiping (sorry, TMI!) but it's bright red, which makes me think it might be AF coming early.

Argh, I shall have to learn some patience!

Just wanted to say that I had some spotting last week which I figured couldn't be implantation because it was bright red. Just on wiping as well, and only lasted about half an hour before turning pink/brown, on two consecutive days. And I've now had a BFP (faint, then stronger the next day). So fingers crossed for you :)

Hi Nellie02, I too have experienced something similar. I had a small amount of pinkish/brownish blood on day 24. Since then nothing. I am now on day 31, and did a hpt yesterday - but got bfn. This is my first AF since coming off the pill so not sure what is going on!! It's driving me a little crazy!

Have you tested since?
