Implantation bleeding question

Hi,

I am having a weird cycle this month and we tried so hard to conceive too. I was a day early for AF and it was almost like normal and now it is hardly like anything at all. I have had it for a day and a half and now it seems like it is nearly over. I have AF for about six days normally. Anyway, I have read lots of things about implanation bleeding today just to see about it. I never had it with my first pregnancy. From the things I read, I just couldn't be sure about how much bleeding or how long bleeding lasted for individuals. I don't know if I should take a test or not...waste the money if I am being silly. I just don't know what is normal. Any advice you may have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for listening.

I am currently going threw practically the same thing...was due for AF on 31st, night of 30th has light light spotting, then semi heavy but very dark on the 31st and 1st..and by the 2nd it was totally gone, other then some light spotting again, and I too normally have 5-6 day AF's....so I am as confused as you...hopefully we will find out soon.

Hey...I know how you feel - I normally have 28 day cycle like clockwork - started spotting 9dpo...flow on 10/11 spot on 12 and done - normally I have 4 days of really heavy clotted flow...it wasn't heavy at all - did a test and was negative - so who knows what my body was thinking...I still feel funny...like I did when I was preg - but heck that was 13 years ago - so maybe I'm just crazy!!! I'm just preparing myself with opk's for the month!! Baby dust to you all though!!!

I was going to post this same question and then I saw yours! I am due for AF for today or tomorrow. 2 days ago I had cramping (not really like PMS or gas cramps) and started spotting. It is only when I wipe. I also have "feminine itch" that started the same time. My breasts have been sore under my arms and feel sort of lumpy. They are about 2 inches bigger than the begining of the month. I tested 8dpo and was negative. I am trying to wait until Saturday to test again. This is my first month off of Birth Control Pills after 5 years. On the pill, I usually spotted for about 4-5 days and then normal period for about 4-5 days and then spotted again for about 4-5 days! I'm not sure what to expect for a cycle since this is my first off the pill! Before I remember that I flowed more heavily, but don't really remember much else. We don't have any children yet, so I can't compare to anything!
