Possible implantation bleeding? Or strange AF?

Hello all. I am new to creating a board here though I have been reading threads on here for a while. This is the first month for DH and I TTC. My cycles are usually about 29-32 days. According to my calendar we DTD twice during my fertile window. The 8th and 11th of this month. It said I should have ovulated on the 13th. On 9 dpo which was day 24 of my cycle I had very light pink spotting only when I wiped. On 10 dpo I had a heavier flow for only about 12 hours. It was bright red with light cramping and thought AF was just coming early which has never happened. However on 11 dpo the bleeding all but stopped, just very light spotting. On 12 and 13 Dpo it was still very light, not enough for a pad really. Today at 14 dpo i had the pink spotting but it was more like pink tinged cm. Could this be an odd form of implantation bleeding? I have sore breasts that feel heavy. I have blue veins showing on my breasts and palms of my hands. I have had a bit of nausea and food aversions. I have also had bad nightmares and insomnia. If anyone could shed any light on this I would appreciate it.

    Have you tested? If you were talking birth control recently it could be breakthrough bleeding. I bled each month before we successfully conceived because low progesterone levels. Implantation bleeding is actually not very common. Many early pregnancy symptoms can very similar to AF symptoms. Without proper tracking it’s also hard to say when an If you ovulated when you think you did. Tracking your period is not enough. It’s best to just wait closer to you AF or if you miss it to test. Best of luck!

    POAS. It is against TOU to ask the Community if you are pregnant.  The internet cannot see inside tour lady parts, but Wal-Mart sells pregnancy tests for like, 88 cents.

    No I have not been. I know I need to be tracking more than just my cycle. I'm learning everything as its our first month. I have not tested yet as tomorrow will be my expected period date.

    Implantation bleeding can only be confirmed in hindsight, so there's really no point in speculating. Typically, you will be able to turn a test the day of your expected period so just test tomorrow.

    I had "implantation bleeding" two different months. It wasn't. It was my period starting both times. Spotting before my period was unusual for me, but that's just what happens sometimes. The month I actually got pregnant, no bleeding.

    Sounds like you ovulated early and thus your period came early.

    *shrug*

    Not sure what you expected us all to say.
