Is it implantation bleeding?

I've done a little research on the web about implantation bleeding but I'm still so confused! I should be getting my period next week. This afternoon I experienced a small amount of bleeding. It's very light and is a little darker than normal. I don't know if this is implantation bleeding or if my period has just come early. I have no cramping or other side effects with it so far. One article says that implantation occurs within 5 days after ovulation. Another article says that it occurs about 4 weeks after your last menstrual cycle. Does anyone have any knowledge on this?

Did you ever get an answer on this? I am in the exact same position right now. I know I ovulated on the 1st of August, did our thing, etc. I'm not supposed to start until next week and last night I get this weird, very light brownish bleeding. Have a little more today. Now I'm usually clockwork and have periods from hell. I've been on the internet today and am a bit confused.

Help!
