HELP!!! Question - Implantation Bleeding

When you experience implantation bleeding, how much do you actually bleed??? I had some light pink colored spotting one day last week, but it couldn't have been anymore than 3 or 4 drops (sorry to be so descriptive.) It wasn't my period because it was due at that time and didn't seem to be that sort of blood. My period was due last monday (27th)and still hasn't showed up yet. I've taken two cheap ($1.00) HPTs. Both showed negative. I took one on the 2nd day past due and one on the 3rd day past due. I haven't really been having any symptoms except diarrhea (sorry) and I've been bloated for a little over a week now. Please give me your input on what you think and what you think I should do? Thank you!!!

Hi. I'm not exactly an expert, but it does sound like it could be implantation bleeding. Impantation bleeding tends to be lighter than normal and it can show up around the same time that af is due. I would get a better, more sensitive test and try again. Also, you might have tested too soon. I would say to get a 2-pack of first response HPTs and take one right away. If it's negative, then wait a week and test again using the other test in the pack. If that one is still negative, you might want to check with your doctor. Good luck:) ~Azurea

Thank you for responding! I just went to the store and bought a One Step Pregnancy Test. I'm debating on trying it now or waiting until tomorrow morning. Any suggestions?

I tested for the 3rd time a few minutes ago. This time with the One Step HPT. I got a nagative and I was 6 days past AF today. What's going on??? What should I do now? Am I really not pregnant? HELP!!!
