Bleeding 8 days post-ovulation- early period?

Hello, just wondering if anyone has any experience of this or know what the hell my body might be doing?

TTC since January. Started using clearblue OPK last month. Had a positive OPK on cd20, cycle is normally 33-34 days, so this made sense. DTD plenty of times. Then got very faint bleed on cd28, 8 days post-ovulation. It started very very light so I got quite excited hoping it was implantation, but then it became like a proper period, red blood (unfortunately I was travelling home from holiday with no tampons etc on a long journey- not fun). Then heavier for the next day then almost nothing. Also- I didn't notice any of the normal period symptoms- boobs, mood changes etc, but could be because I was on holiday and was not looking for them.

Am I right in assuming this is too heavy to be implantation bleed? If it's a period, if my luteal phase is only 8 days that's bad right? Although if cycle is normally longer, luteal phase would normally be 13 days so hopefully this is just a one-off extra early period?
