Experiences - IF ANY - Implantation Bleeding

14 replies

WildRose91 · 11/02/2021 10:14

Hi all,
Currently on month 9 of TTC and I started really lightly spotting on Monday, 1 week before my period is due. Its more like brown cervical mucus rather than actual blood.
Not gonna get my hopes up but my periods have never been this out of sync before, I normally come on exactly on day 30 of my cycle so I'm thinking it mite be possible implantation. However its day 4 now of this weird brown sludge and its still coming. Only ever so lightly on a liner and nothing when I wipe but it means I'm now 4 days away from period due to start so I'm now like is it just AF being a bitch and having the slowest entrance ever?
I just wanted to know what other peoples experience of implantation bleed was like - if any!
I would do a test but I promised myself I would wait until after missed period to save myself the money/heartache

Thank you!

First pregnancy i had a spot of baby pink discharge a few days before my period was due. Assumed that was the start and tested about a week later as I realised I may be late (first period after coming off pill so really didn't have a clue when it should start).
Second pregnancy I had light red and brown spotting at 9dpo which continued until 14dpo when I took a test as it seemed odd. Test was positive.

I never had implantation bleeding. The only time I had brown spotting like you're describing that was a little early was after an anovulatory cycle (confirmed as was in infertility testing). It lasted about a week but was maybe 5 days earlier than I was expecting my period. I did think it could be an implantation bleed at the time and was gutted when it wasn't. Plenty of people do have implantation bleeding though that sounds really similar. Only a test will tell - you're doing a good thing waiting! Good luck for your BFP.

I have had implantation bleeding with all of my pregnancies and it has been anywhere between light pink/brown cervical mucus to quite heavy bleeding. Always accompanied by quite intense cramping! And usually about the time my period was due, never a week earlier etc. Normal cycles I spot light pink/brown 3 or 4 days before my period arrives.

I had implantation bleeding. I thought it was a really short period I was very confused 🤣

Mine started 8 dpo on 12dpo now so that's made me feel a little more reassured seeing as yours lasted quite a while!
Only time will tell!

Mine was pretty much the same as you OP. Started exactly a week before period was due, 7 or 8 DPO at a guess. It lasted for about three days and then stopped. I usually have spotting before my period and it was similar but it was way too early to be that so I assumed implantation. I got a faint positive test when the spotting finished.

I had implantation bleeding with this pregnancy. Was TTC saw period like blood in pants in morning, though before period due. I’ll never forget sitting in a carpark looking up threads on implantation bleeding here, and feeling so gutted as most posts said they’d never experienced it/ was not even a thing.
Was so depressed all day, even went out and got pissed with friends.... next day got the faintest line on a First Response. It does and can happen!

I 100% had implantation bleeding 5-7 dpo. Currently 6 weeks pregnant.

I very rarely spot, checked my Flo app and the last time was October but it was actually heavier than this on the first day, and rather red when it was a lot on 5 dpo, took me by surprise. The other two days were much darker, and less.
I had a negative test dpo 9, but positive dpo 10.

I always pre-bleed before my period, which happened as usual on and off around a week before my period was due. Had one big wipe of red blood after a bowel movement (sorry TMI) on the Friday and I thought my period was about to start. It never came and I got a positive result on the following Wednesday.

gemgem1404 · 12/02/2021 09:32

I would've missed my implantation bleed if I weren't looking for it. Tissue was ever so slightly tinged the palest brown and only on one wipe a few days before my bfp.
