When you were TTC...

Pocky873

...did you experience implantation bleeding?  What did it look like?  Was it heavy enough that you mistook it for your period?  How long did it last?

I remember seeing a thread about this maybe two weeks ago...but I can't seem to find it now.  I apologize if this is a repetitive post!  And thanks in advance!

I had some spotting for a day, but then when I was about 12 weeks pregnant, I had more bleeding, almost like a light period. I was told to take it easy after that....

MrsWindyCity

Yes, I did.  I had it around 9 DPO and it was very faint and pinkish - nothing like a normal period.  It  mostly just showed up on the tp and only lasted like a day.

i did. it was very light spotting for a day or two. i also had the most awful cramps along with it. it was very odd b/c i didn't know that could happen.

No implantation bleeding, but all other signs of starting AF. I also didn't get a BFP until 15/16 DPO after BFNs at 9/10 DPO.

I did. I thought I was starting my period early and was sad but it was brownish and only when I wiped... a little smear on a liner if anything. 2 weeks later, a BFP

I didn't experience implantation bleeding but your thread title made me giggle.

Mine was pretty light and I think it lasted a full day? I have heard it can vary pretty widely.

I cant confirm either was implantation but I had spotting at 3 dpo and then I spotted the day AF was due (this time around, had none with DD)..it was very light and if I han not looked at the TP I would not have even noticed it..

Nope.  But I was on the TTGP board and have seen people post about experiencing it.  Good luck!

I had 2-3 days of pink spotting - which was what my "normal" AF's were like, so I had no idea I was KU until AF didn't show up the next month.

This exactly. I thought I was finally starting my period since it had been since February. But then I googled it and tested - BFP the next day. We weren't TTC - so we were pleasantly surprised with our BFP.

LOL...I should probably change that!

Thanks!  I sure hope it's implantation bleeding, too.  If it isn't, AF really seems like she's tiptoe-ing in rather than blasting her way in like she usually does.

They thought I had implantation bleeding, but it tured out to be something else.  (DH and I have differnt blood types, so the baby got Dh's blood type and it wasn't meshing well with my body.  Basically my body was fighting off the pregnancy, so I had to get Rogam (sp??) shots and that took care of it!)

My bleeding was bright red, but not enough for a tampon- panty liner was enough.    Sorry tmi

Thanks so much, Ladies.  I really appreciate your input! 

I saw some bright red blood this morning on the TP and thought I was out this cycle.  It's a little more than what I would call "spotting", but not enough to even call "light".  There's very little on the pad.  I could easily get away with just a liner.  I usually never spot - when AF arrives, it's usually very heavy right off the bat.

Yes, I had this around 8 weeks, then bleeding again around 12. After that, no more

Not trying to get your hopes up but this is exactly what happened with me this pregnancy. I thought it was a light period and moved on with my life. The next month I was late and took a test and got a positive. I really hope this is the case for you!!

I had implantation bleeding, and I thought it was my period.  But it ended after one day, which made me POAS.

Pocky873

Thank you!!  I'll ride it out with my fingers crossed and hope for the best.  I'm still seeing some red on the TP but nothing new is showing up on the pad, so it doesn't seem like it's getting any heavier, at least not yet.

This for me too.  My cycles were often irregular, so I thought for sure it was my period. I POAS a few days later because I went to Zumba and my boobs were killing me.

Fingers crossed for you!

When we found out that we were pregnant, I had experienced what I thought was a light period and it lasted a few days. Fingers crossed for you!
