Implantation Bleeding

in Trying to Get Pregnant

Hi, I'm new to the board, but I've been browsing different topics for awhile now, and I've seen how helpful you all are, so I'm hoping someone can help me, and I apologize if i didn't post on the correct board.

First thing is my cycle is normally 30 days. My last one was on the 1st of the month and was normal. On the 26th I noticed some spotting. It kind of caught me off guard, since I wasn't expecting my cycle to start for another week, but I brushed it off at first thinking that I'm just early this month (it has happened to me before) but its now 3 days later since I've noticed the spotting, and that's all I'm still doing, it hasn't gotten heavier. Could this be implantation bleeding? And I've read that you don't produce hCG till after implantation, so how soon can I take a test?

 Thanks in advance for your help! Smile

    Welcome to the board! In my experience since I have been off the pill, I spot for like 3-5 days before AF. Sorry to tell you, but it is probably just AF on the way. Check out the newbie link at the top of the board, if you have not seen it yet. GL to you!

    The only way to know if it was implantation bleeding is getting a positive test (and it is my understand that IB is rare). Have been you charting with temps or anything like that? It is hard to say when you should test without knowing if you have ovulated, but I would say a day or two after you are expecting to get your period is reasonable. Also, this is helpful:

    The only way to know if spotting is in fact implantation bleeding is after you're pregnant.  In my experience, every time I spot a few days before AF - it's AF related.  At this point, just take a pregnancy test if you want to know if you're pregnant or not.

    no, i'm not charting. my husband and i aren't fully commited to really trying. we both have the attitude of "if it happens, it happens"

    and i read that 30% of women have ib (who knows it that's true, since it was on the internet, haha) but i do know that my mother did with both my brother and i, although i don't know if something like that is hereditary or not.

    and thanks for answering my question. i'll prolly test in the morning. i just hate to waste a test by using it to early.

    The dollar store has little cheapies that are a buck. I don't think they are accurate until a missed AF, but if you don't want to waste the money on one you can use those.
