Implantation Bleeding? TMI

Yesterday, I saw a little bit of blood. It wasn't like regular blood though. It was almost pink, and there was not a whole lot of it. At first I was like..."AF Again? Ughhh." But then I thought about it....AF isn't due till about July 11. My boyfriend and I did have unprotected drunk sex (Twice... naturally) on June 29. We used the "Pull out" method.

Well today I feel like I am having PMS symptoms. The most notable would be the cramping. They kinda feel like AF cramps, but not as bad. They are almost light. I don't know how else to describe them.

Anybody else out there have implantation bleeding before? I am not exactly sure what to believe because a lot of the things I am reading say if you have implantation bleeding it will occur about the same time as your period is due and there are other sites that say it would happed a little bit before your period. I am not sure if I fit into either category. I can't imagine any other reason though for in between period bleeding. Any input appreciated.

If I were you, Id either try to wait it out and see if your period comes, spotting does sometimes happen. But the pullout method isnt very reliable so you might very well be pregnant. You could call your doctor and get a blood test in a couple weeks I think. Im not sure what to tell ya, try not to stress too much. Have you been under a lot of stress?Pink blood does sound like IB though, eh, Im really at a loss of words, sorry!

hi! I have the same question. my lmp started 5/10 right when I went off the bc patch. this morning there was a tiny bit of pink in my cm, it only happened in the morning I thought my af was finally going to start and now there's no bleeding or anything. I have no idea when/if I ovulated so I can't really determine the timing. I guess this is why drs say not to ttc for a few months after stopping bc LOL. Can anyone describe what implantation bleeding looks like/ how long it lasts or if this sounds like it could be it? how long after conception does it usually occur?

well tia for any replies!
