    Implantation Bleed

    What can you tell me? I was under the impression it was the bleed that some people get that happened at 6 (or a little more) days after O. I have been told in the past a friend was diagnosed with an implantation bleed at 9 weeks. Is this the actual bleed or left over blood that kinda just sat in the uterus??

    My implantation bleed with DD was bright red blood like a period and lasted a day......

    Tad confused.

    TIA

    I had a thread about this when TTC #2.

    With DD I literally had just a small amount of brown blood when wiping. It was once only.

    With this pregnancy I had brown and red blood off and on for about 4 days. I would think it was getting heavy (and therefore AF) and make necessary 'preparations' but would then find nothing else there. Since it happened for so long I honestly thought it was a light AF. If I hadn't have tested I probably wouldn't have found out for another month as I had no symptoms this pregnancy either!

    Both were a few days before AF was due. This time it was about 4 days (although I'm not 100% on my cycle length as I'm lucky enough to have never been off the pill and not UTD for long).

    I was pretty much exactly the same as chody. I'd say if it was at 9 weeks it would be old blood left over from implantation, but it would have to be brown being that old. If it was red or pink I'd say not implantation just some other kind or random breakthrough bleeding, or maybe from a small clot.

    Implantation Bleed

    Ii have no idea if it was an implantation bleed or not but I had spotting type blood when I was about 6 and a half weeks. It was there for bout 2 days mostly when I wiped and changed between brown to pink to mucous with streaks.

    Hope your ok

    I had a brown loss with DD2 at 8 and a bit weeks. They said it was from the implant but hadn't been shed until then.

    Implantation Bleed

    On Tuesday I started bleeding, I thought AF was coming a week early. But it's just very light spotting, only when wiping and not enough to wear a pad. I'm thinking its either breakthrough bleeding or implantation. I'm thinking breakthrough bleeding as I'm on the pill, but I am a bit nervous as I have no reason to have breakthrough bleeding.
