Hi there. Me and my fiancé are both 20 years of age. We have been Trying to conceive for the past 4 months now. With just no luck at alllllll.
Well, I got my period last month like normal then we tried again. Yet, on the 21st I got slight pink spotting barely enough for a pantyliner. It stopped except for possibly 2 to 3 spots the next day. Very light pink. Well, today Ive had a few small cramps but nothing like my period. Im not due for my period until around the 4th... but I'm slightly irregular soemtimes so Im not sure exact date.

Could this have been Implantation Bleeding or something else?

Can you have symptoms of pregnancy and a high chance of being so... but just have your mind tell you that you aren't pregnant and just feel like your mind is right and you're never going to be pregnant?

You could be in denial. Have you done a HPT or gone to the see a doctor yet?

No HPT yet.

I'm not due for about a week

But the other day I think I had implantation bleeding and I've been having headaches and back aches and I've been tired beyond belief.

But my mind just keeps saying you're not pregnant... you're not pregnant...

I recently delivered a baby to a gal who denied being pregnant at all. As was mentioned above, it's called denial. You should get a pregnancy test if you have missed your period and you think there is even the slightest chance of pregnancy.

The bleeding that I think was implantation bleeding the other day lasted only a few hours.. was light pink and barely enough for a panty liner.

If your period is not due for another week, you will have to wait to see whether it comes or not.

So, it's completely possible for me to be pregnant right now?

Or... is my mind right... shouldnt a woman know if she is or isn't..

Sometimes a woman knows, other times she doesn't. The patient I had recently thought she was just constipated, she was actually 9 months pregnant.

While it's possible for you to be pregnant, it's impossible for us to diagnose you over the internet, it is also impossible to tell quite yet as you haven't missed your period.

Well, may I ask your medical opinion on something then

Do you think that what I had was implantation bleeding?

No, I don't believe in implantation bleeding. You see, what most women consider implantation bleeding is the very early beginning of their period, then the hormone hCG kicks in and stops the period before it comes on.

Look at it this way. The egg, when implanting into the uterus is smaller that a pencil dot. Smaller than that period at the end of this sentence. If you think constructively about that, would something so microscopic cause bleeding? Nah.

If you read the link I provided above, you will see that this is a very rare occurrence and not proven medically.

I didn't know if you was searching the web or not... there are a lot questions people ask on here and it can be found very easily on the web... _E

Also, Ive had small headaches practically every day and I've been so tired beyond belief that I sleep constantly throughout the day.

Can you have symptoms of pregnancy and a high chance of being so... but just have your mind tell you that you aren't pregnant and just feel like your mind is right and you're never going to be pregnant?

Very well could be a positive sign... everything you are saying are either signs of pregnancy conception (especially the cramping) or stress.

I just don't know when to test or how common these symptoms are in woman...

These symptoms are very common in a woman even if your not pregnant. I find they are exaggerated when pregnant and honestly your intuition will be the first judge... well it was with my two. Depending on your cycle (21 or 28) get a test 4 days before or on the day of your next expected period... not before... it will not say anything. If you want to be sure you can request a blood test requisition form from your doctor to ensure that nothing is missed as we know that the urine test can sometimes be inaccurate. So get tested on the 12th or 20th of December... best of luck.

Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding the signs and symptoms of pregnancy is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. Some women experience signs or symptoms of pregnancy within a week of conception. For other women, pregnancy symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy signs symptoms. If you have been sexually active and experiencing any of the following symptoms it is important to take a pregnancy test.

Lower backaches may be a symptom that occurs early in pregnancy; however, it is common to experience a dull backache throughout an entire pregnancy.
