So my “period” came a couple days later than usual and it was a super light one. Two days there was close to no blood whatsoever and the other two days was minimal compared to normal as well. Should I test or not?! Will it even be accurate if I was pregnant because I had some bleeding? What if this was implantation bleeding? Would I get a positive test if it was?
It is against TB guidelines to ask, even in a roundabout way, if you're pregnant. By asking if the bleeding you experienced is implantation bleeding, you are asking if you could be pregnant. If you think you might be pregnant, take a test. If it's positive move on to your BMB (and please don't update here), if it's negative and you're trying to get pregnant go introduce yourself over in the newbies thread if you'd like to stick around. Many of the people on this board have never been pregnant before and would therefore not be able to answer you regardless of the guidelines.
Ladies, come on. Just get your Ute Goggles out and examine her uterus via the interwebs. I mean, that's going to be so much more accurate than an actual HPT. Also, science doesn't matter.
