Hi sweetie and welcome to BB. You may get more responses if you start your own thread, btw. (Although this did make me smile again, so thanks for bumping!)
As far as I'm aware, implantation bleeding happens just before you're due, or just after, or around the time (I'm not too regular so don't know how this "due" thing works anyway). It's just a few spots of light brown blood and not that noticable if you wear dark pants.
If your period is late in any way and you've had sex this cycle and you think you may be pregnant, there's no harm in doing a test. Even if you don't think your pregnant - at least you're sat on the loo when you get the results LOL. (Unless you just order a blood test at the hospital, which involves all the lab finding out before you.) If this bleeding is nine days before a period and your last period was normal, wait until you're late and then test.
i couldn't work out how to make my own thread, i'm 9 days due for my next period and still waiting for my last had a test today and was neg but some post say you have to wait days after you stop the brown...
So you have a 28 day cycle and are now on day 47, with very light bleeding on days 43-46? I would say that if you were pregnant that would show up on a test. It's if you get implantation bleeding a few days before your period then it can take a while to show up on the test, not a few days after from what I know.
However, you haven't said what's going on in your life - stress can make your periods late or different, as can a number of hormonal changes. You don't say what protection you've been using or if your TTC (trying to conceive). All sorts of things can mess with a period: stress, grief, dieting, work pressure...
You can always try another test tomorrow morning because false negatives do sometimes occur. Or you can hang on another week and see what happens. Up to you. I hope your body gives you the answer you want.
i was on the pill, levin working in hospitality nothing to stressful at the mo in fact everything is kinda nice, now i'm a little stressed lol i'm not sure what i what the outcome to be
