brown/pink implantation bleeding???

For about the past week I have been having cramps on the right and left side of my lower abdomen. Then today I had cramps in my mid-abdomen and at about 2:30pm felt like af was coming. When I went to the restroom I notice a brownish / pinkish ( more brown, creamy ) discharge ( sorry too much info. ). My question is could this be implantation bleeding. Depending on when I ovulated today would be either 10 dpo or 8 dpo ( I know it can occur 5 - 12 dpo ) and af it's due until the 11th, I'm on a 30 day cycle. I haven't experience any other symptoms too much except for the cramping, which I'm not too worried about since they say they usually don't come until you actually miss af and HCG can't be released until the egg implants ( hopefully mine did today ) so I'm okay with no symptoms. Any and all advice welcome.

I hope it was implantation for both of us.

I'm going nuts...today is 10dpo and I'm trying to hold out to test between 12-14dpo and I am going CRAZY!!

lol

GL to you

And, you know, since I get my results sooner than you (hopefully in the next few days) I will let you know, so that you can have a better idea of what is happening.

All I can say is, it's a textbook case of implantation, but midcycle spotting could be other things as well, so it's hard to tell.

I had that same discharge yesterday...brownish, like old blood, with a streak of light pink. Haven't had any today. Thought AF was coming a little early, since I have had quite a bit of cramping and low back pain for several days now. I am HOPING it was implantation bleeding, too, and the cramping (I still have some) is from that and not PMS!! That would have been CD 24...not sure when o'd but think it was early...maybe 14dpo. AF due 10-9, all HPTs have been BFN so far :(

I guess I will wait til this weekend, and test again if no AF! This waiting is the WORST!

Lots of luck and baby dust to you!

It is now 10:23pm and I have no idea what is going on. After I posted earlier I started having cramps again and thought that af was coming but when I went to wipe it wasn't her just the brown/pink discharge again. So hopefully it is implantation bleeding. Usually when af is coming I will get cramps really bad that stay ( not come and go like these ) and this warm sensation that something is coming down ( sorry too much info. ) but I didn't have that sensation today. Soooooooo I hope all is well. Hopefully tomorrow I will have more info., I'm going to the OB for some cramps that I was having previous to ttc, so maybe he'll do an ultrasound and see something, but then again I hope he doesn't so he won't say "no I don't see anything." UHHH. My dr. also gave me a referral for infertility so maybe he'll be able to check my tubes and at least see if they are okay even though he probably won't do a full evaluation b/c we haven't tried long enough. Well I'll post more tomorrow and tell you what is going on. Good luck to all.

I think it's possible that it could be implantation but there is also a possibility that it's the first signs of AF coming. I used to get the same before she came but hopefully in your case it's a sign that she was GOING to come, then got held up!
