I'm in a similar situation. My husband and i were both sure that i was pregnant. I was exhausted, constantly starving and my breasts were becoming increasingly sore. then this morning i started with cramping that eventually went away after a few hours and some bleeding. I also have a slight migraine. I wouldn't call it "spotting" but its alot lighter than my normal period.:confused: I wasn't sure what to think, so i have called and left a message with my doctor because if i'm preg. then i have to be careful about what i take for the headache. Well anyway. i'll wait for the doctor to call back and take a test tomorrow or the next day. Hopefully it is positive. :)

Well, I am going through similar things than all of you. I have irregular periods. Meaning I never have them when I am supposed to. When I have them they are very heavy I have bad cramping and they last about 5 days. Well, September I did not have a period so I took a pregnancy test. It was negative right away. Then a few days later around the first of October I noticed a brownish, light pink small spot on the toilet paper. I thought my period was starting so I put on a pad. Nothing but one or two very tiny light brown spots on pad for 2 days. Today no spots, nothing for the first half of the day. Now there is small amounts of dark red blood on toilet paper. Nothing on pad yet. Can implantation bleeding be dark like a period? I had implantation bleeding with first son but not second and I don't remember it so well it was 6 years ago. I don't know if I should wait it out or take another test. If so when should I do it? Thanks

I have a similar situation. I am 4 days late past my period and I thought was pregnant. I have one little girl already who is 5 and I've also had 2 miscarrages earlier this year. This morning around 10 am I started bleeding. It was brownish at first and is now more red and seems clotty. It's not heavy bleeding; it seems that there's blood when I wipe but there is hardly any blood on the pad I'm wearing. I am slightly crampy, not bad, but cramping never happens during my period. I usually never notice that my period is there. There is no way this is my regular period because it's lighter than my normal period. My breasts don't hurt, but at times I would feel a "tingling" sensation and the nips are dark and bumpy. I've taken 2 pregnancy test and they came out negative. Can anyone help me? I'm really nervous this is another miscarrage...

I have been bleeding for 9 days. But I don't kown if I'm pregnant or not , I have been getting bad pains in my lower back. Can someone help.. thank you

Hi,
I am new to this site. I was searching for information about implantation bleeding and found this. All of the information is helpful but I still am unsure whether I am having implantation bleeding or just had my period. I had my last period on Sep 8th I think. I usually get it on wed and this was thurs so it was pretty normal. Then sometime around sept 26 to 28 I started having spotting and discharge. It was first just pink then brown. I used a tampon and it appeared saturated but brown after removal. It was generally when I whiped and I was having cramping. It lasted a while for me, just recently stopping on around oct 3rd or 4th. I was due for my period on wed the 5th and nothing. I am not sure if I just got an early period or what. The thing is, that I am on birth control, a 28 day one that has low levels of hormones and I have missed 2 pills once and 1 pill another time. I am not sure if I would call this break through bleeding, implantation or just an early period from the missed pills. I could take a test but I just feel like I'm being overly paranoid. Anyone agree?
Thanks

I haven't missed my period yet it should be next week but yesterday I had light bleeding like I was on my period but it only lasted for like four hours I wanted to know if I was pregnant or what was going on?

First, when in doubt - Always see your doctor.
Second, if you take a test, it could be negative depending on your hormone levels. And if you had uprotected intercourse, then you should wonder what's going on, and not just about pregnancy, but other risks as well.
If you are not intuned to your cycles, the first site is a good place to start...

These make good reading. Good Luck.

Hi all,
About 2 years ago I experienced the very same symptoms. I have very light bleeding about 1 week before by period was due that only lasted a couple of days. I put it down to nothing as I've always been a little bit irregular. However about 2 1/2 weeks later I started to experience bad cramping. I started getting worried at this stage but as I was moving house I ignored it. The pain gradually got worse to the extent of it being excruciating. Then it was followed by very heavy bleeding, heavier than any period I've ever had. This bleeding went on for about 1 1/2 weeks before I consulted a doctor who after giving me an internal advised me that I'd just had a miscarriage. My advise to you all out there is, if you think you may be pregnant and you are experiencing the same symptoms as I was at the start (implantation bleeding), go and see a doctor, its better in the long run. :)

It could well be that the moving had something to do with your loss. When in the first trimester, exertion can cause you to miscarry. Sorry about your loss.

Hi. Welcome to the forum. This depends if you are due to your next period, and if it does not show, the do an EPT, but when in doubt - Always see your doctor.

First, when in doubt - Always see your doctor.

Second, you might be pregnant and a little spotting is normal for most of us. Take a EPT or HPT, even though they might be negative does not mean your not. To be certain, don't forget to see your doctor - always!

Just make certain to watch what you drink and also stay near a window to get a lot more fresh air instead of passive smoke! Have Fun!
