How many days...

How many days after (most likely) implantation bleeding should I test?

sydsmom04 · February 2012

I had spotting 7 8 and 9 dpo and got a positive on frer and digi on 10 dpo

How do you know that it's "most likely" implantation bleeding?

kmmehler · February 2012

Because it's in the time period when it's possible and it was a small amount of dark brown blood which is the color and amount it would be.

Dark brown blood is old blood, not spotting from your fresh lining. Implantation bleeding can only be determined in hindsight.

FWIW, I got my BFP at 10dper which is the same as 10dpo.

I never had implantation bleeding. Is it normal not to?

kmmehler · February 2012

When I looked it up because I wasn't sure if it was implantation blood or not it said it is normally pinkish or brown so I just assumed

Me neither.

I tested when my period was late.

Right- my point is there's no way of knowing. If you get your BFP in a few days, then it was implantation bleeding. If not, then it wasn't. I hate to be a downer, but I spotted brown blood every single cycle. I also had brown spotting a few days after my ET. So I guess for the first 34 cycles it was my period, but the 35th one it was implantation....

I didn't have implantation bleeding til the day my period was missed. Did an FRER on 11 dpo, negative. Got a positive on 14DPO, two more positives the next day.

Most women don't have implantation bleeding and those that do only know it was in hind sight. Also, implantation bleeding isn't usually brown, it's more common to be pink or slightly red.

That being said, your ticker says you are 10DPO and I have heard of BFP's that early. I personally don't like to test until I am 1 day late, but you could theoretically get a BFP now.

I didn't have implantation spotting with any of my pregnancies.

I never had implantation bleeding with any of mine. I got my BFP at 8 DPO.

from what I read, it said 3-4.

and implantation bleeding doesnt have an exact color.

it is most commonly, brown, light pink, or red. (so the webites say)

sorry I didnt mean to send that so soon.

anyways, I think only you will know if it's implantation bleeding or not, I've never had it, but I dont have irregular spotting EVER so if I started spotting around the approx time of implantation, then I'd be pretty sure that's what's going on...

I had implantation bleeding with my first pregnancy...thought it was my period but it only lasted not even a whole day. This time around, I didnt have any.
