Implantation bleed or not?

So the partner and I have been casually trying for a few months. I have been working out when I've been ovulating but we haven't been pushing for pregnancy. Taking the stress out of it and just letting it happen when it happens.
The thing is last night I thought my period was coming on three days early. Very dark brown and light which is unusual for me. It's usually quite heavy from the word go and not as dark as it had been. I didn't need to wear a towel to bed it was that light. I put one on this morning but the dark brown discharge eventually stopped. I have no other symptoms. I cramped at work for about ten minutes the other day, but didn't think anything of it.

I don't want to get my hopes up if my period is just around the corner, but I never experienced implantation bleeding with my first daughter. This is new to me and I don't know whether it is possibly implantation bleeding or just aunt flow being completely different to what I've been used to since giving birth to my daughter.

Any advice would be more than useful because the advice I've had is that it's just my period and it will start properly soon. It doesn't feel like a period, that's the thing. So I don't know what to think of this

Well I've got this and I'm getting it about 5 days prior to af. I do usually spot prior to af but not thus early so I'm a bit perplexed I've also been cramping a lot so I'm fairly certain it's af coming early. How strange?! There seems to be a few of us the same on here I wondered if it was something to do with the heat lol don't laugh! Other than that I've been ttc 17 cycles now and every month there is something different so this will be something else to add to the list now! Are you planning to test over the next few days? Good luck if you do x
