Brown discharge/blood before period

Hey guys, I’m new here and need to ask something which I’m worried about. My usual cycle is for 27 days, and I’m always on time. However, on CD29, when I realised that my period was slightly late, I started to have some very light brown vaginal discharge. There’s only been a tiny amount, only when I wipe and it’s not enough for a pad. (Sorry, TMI!) I’ve had the usual period cramps although they’re not as strong as they usually are, and I’ve been exhausted in the last few days. I’ve heard that this could be implantation bleeding, but I don’t think that’s possible this month, as both me and the husband were super busy, and we only did the deed twice, once a day before my fertile window, and once later on, much later on. I usually know when I ovulate, as I have ovulation pains at the same time each month.
Is this normal? Has anyone else had this, and what did it turn out to be? It’s now day 31 of my cycle, and I still have the brown discharge although it’s super light now. It started off super light too, and I don’t know what it is because it does seem like old blood, but it’s not a normal period. I’m 22 years old, and I’m really worried about what’s going on as I have absolutely no idea.
It’d mean a lot if anyone could help me out! x

when my sister was pregnant she had period type cramps for about 3 months and a bit of light spotting. She now has a healthy baby girl

I had cramping and bleeding just before I did a positive pregnancy test. It was an implantation bleed. You must have just got one lucky sperm that found its destination. 😂
Like they say in Jurassic park...life finds a way!

Congratulations 💐

I had cramps and spotting on and off until week 7 - I just had my 12 week scan this morning with a due date of 12th Dec.

Congrats!

I had a full on period when I was pregnant with DS, not also cramps and the runs (sorry). The little scamp is sat on my lap shouting at the tv now 9 years later. Congratulations Op Smile
