Implantation bleeding...TMI

I've had regular cycles since 8 weeks pp even though I EBF. I was taking the minipill until this last month. My last (for sure) AF was August 1st. On August 23rd or so, I had some light bleeding, it stopped for a day and then I had another day of light bleeding the following day and nothing since then. I've looked up implantation bleeding and it says "spotting" but this was more than what I call spotting. It was way less than my normal cycle though and it was early.

I pos this morning and I thought there was a VERY faint line but my husband said there wasn't. I think I stared so much at the thing, I could have just been imagining a line. Clearly, I'll have to wait and pos again later to find out, but I'm wondering about the bleeding and if any of you had implantation bleeding like what I described. This is going to drive me crazy! 

Re: Implantation bleeding...TMI

  • I think what you are describing would be too much to be implantation bleeding. I had implantation bleeding and it was the most tiny amount ever. If I hadn't been actively searching for it, probably wouldn't have even noticed it. It was one tiny tiny streak.

  • I'm sure it could easily just be my hormones messing with my cycle. I've been surprised they were so consistent (to the day) up until now.

  • It sounds like too much to be implantation.

    I had implantation bleeding with DS. It was a very scant amount and only noticable on the terlet paper. It was extremely light pink. It was off and on for 2 days. I tested + with a digital on the second day.

  • Did you use a blue line test?  They are notorious for giving false positives, happened to me a few months ago.


    And on my old bcp, I was pretty much getting 2 periods, and my old ob acted like there was nothing wrong.

  • It was a First Response test, so pink lines. I used one when I was pregnant with DD a day after my missed period and it was negative. "5 days before a missed period" my a$$! I know they're not very accurate if you test early, but the boxes are very misleading!

    I honestly think this one was negative and I was just straining my eyes trying to see a line. From pp, it does sound like it was way too much bleeding. I'll just take another test if I don't have AF soon and if it's negative, I'll just chalk it up to EBF and the bleeding was just an irregular AF.

    DH's birthday is Sunday so I can't help but hope I can test that day and it be positive because he really wants another baby! I'm not holding my breath though.

  • I had some implantation bleeding ( I guess that is what it was) the day I was supposed to start my period when I was pregnant with the girls.  It was like 3 tiny spots.  I thought it was my period, but that is all it was, so I knew something was up.  I POAS 2 days later and got a faint positive.

  • I had implantation bleeding with DS. It was enough blood to where I thought it was a very light period. It only lasted two to three days.

  • I had implantation bleeding with DS.  It happened about a week after ovulation would have probably been (I've never charted so I don't know exactly when I O).  It was more than just a few spots, but not enough to be mistaken for a light period.  It lasted for 2 days.
