Well, hun, you said you don't want to hear " buy a test or test" but honestly, that's the only way you are going to know. We could sit here all day guessing whether you are or are not pregnant, based on your dates etc, however, the only sure way to know is to test. Basing the average ovulation time, on the average 28 day cycle, you would ovulate 12-14 days after the first day of your last cycle. However, not all women ovulate at the same time. Some ovulate immediately after bleeding, some mid cycle, some at the end of the cycle, and a rare few even ovulate while on their period. So unless you are charting your ovulation and looking for the signs of it, you won't know when you ovulate. Implantation bleeding is really pretty rare, it does happen, but not often. Bleeding was possibly your period. HOWEVER, as I said, you won't know till you test.
