  2. What color is implantation bleeding?
    implantation bleeding?
    What color(s) is it? How long does it last? Will I be able to get a positive test if I am experiencing implantation bleeding starting today.

    I have a small amount of light pink blood when I wipe.

    My lower back aches.

    Usual periods are heavy and dark red.

    My period is not supposed to start for a few days.

    • If it is implantation bleeding you will have to wait a few days before you’ll get a positive result as it takes over a day for it to implant completely. You may get a false negative result. If you can pinpoint conception, you can test roughly 9-14 days after that.

      I’ve never had implantation bleeding although once I thought I was having it. It was just small, light pink and I really got my hopes up. My friend said that’s what she had before she found out she was pregnant.

      2 days later my period started. By all means hope for the best but know if might be a sign of your period too. Better to expect the worst and have a pleasant surprise than expect to be pregnant and be crushed when it doesn’t work out.

      My fingers crossed for you.

  3. How long did your implantation bleeding last? What color was it? ?
    For the past 5 days I have had very light bleeding/spotting. My period is not supposed to start for another 4 days. The color changes from pink, to a little red, to a dark brown. I have no cramps I was up last night with nausea, felt really sick. I feel like my boyfriends colognes are way too strong now. I get heart burn almost after every meal I eat, and I never get that. My periods are always normal so this is definitely different for me.

    • After ovulation the egg travels into the uterus and burrows into the lining of the uterus. For some women implantation will cause slight bleeding or spotting. This is called implantation bleeding. This is sometimes confused for an early period.

      Implantation bleeding, also called implantation spotting, does not look like a regular menstrual period. Implantation bleeding is scanty and usually pink or brownish discharge.

      Implantation bleeding or menstrual period?
      Implantation bleeding normally occurs a week to a few days before your period would normally start. Spotting that occurs around a week after ovulation is likely implantation bleeding; whereas, spotting that occurs very close to the time that your period would normally start may not be. A normal menstrual cycle generally starts off light and then gets heavier. Spotting can sometimes be the sign of an early period. If this is the case, the spotting will pick up to heavier bleeding. If you have spotting right around the time your period would normally start, it can be more confusing. You will need to take the wait and see approach or take a pregnancy test to determine pregnancy.

      What if I feel like my period is about to start?
      If you have had spotting and think it might be implantation bleeding you may be paying very close attention to your body. If you are trying to get pregnant, the good news is that early pregnancy symptoms feel very similar to the start of your period. If you are pregnant you may begin to notice symptoms of early pregnancy right around the time your period would normally start and sometimes sooner than that. If you suspect pregnancy you can test for pregnancy as early as ten days after ovulation.

      How common is implantation bleeding?

      Implantation bleeding is fairly common with pregnancy. Twenty to thirty percent of women will have spotting during early pregnancy. If you have some light spotting before your period would normally start this is not something to worry about and may be a sign of pregnancy.

  4. what color can implantation bleeding be an how heavy is it?
    Could implantation be heavy? or is it suppose to be light? and what is usually the color of it?
    and how long after that will a pregnancy test come up positive if im pregnant? an has anyone had cramps with implantation before?

    • Basically you just have to get to know your body. With my son, I bled red. It looked like my period and it lasted a couple hours. I thought it was my period. Implantation bleeding is different for everyone, so yes it can be heavier. I’ve heard of some women that had it last a few days and it looking just like a period. So basically all you can do is wait. Sorry, it sucks, but thats the only thing you can do.

    • If it is brown spotting that occurs just before your period, no, it is just the beginning of the period.

      If it is brown spotting that occurs at least a week before your period is due then it is more likely implantation, which happens 7-10 days after conception but won’t happen with your period.
