Hi ladies- I have a few questions.

I know alot of women have some spotting or a light period when they are actually pregnant and this is implantation bleeding. My question is what day does this normally happen on? The reason I am asking is becuase I am 12 DPO and the last two days I have had a bit of very light blood when I wiped, but only twice- once last night and once tonight. This is really strange for me since I ussually spot one night and then start a full period right away the next morning. Also, when I spot ussually it is brown, never light pink.

So... my questions I guess is could this possibly be implantation bleeding if its just a couple times about 24 hrs apart and just a little on the TP. I am really trying to not get excited at all becuase we didnt really time things right AT ALL this month so I dont know how I could even be pregnant. BUT- I have never had spotting Saturday night and still have not started my period by the next night before bed. Also I have never had pink spotting......

Tommorow morning I am going to take a test because I have a naturopath appointment and the procedure she does to me can not be done during the first trimester so I need to make sure Im not.

Also, do temps normally stay up until the period, through the period, or drop off right before the period? If they drop beforehand, how much before?

Thanks a bunch- Kara

I have heard of all kinds of spotting and even slightly heavier than spotting bleeding in pregnant women but it never happened to me. Normally your temp will drop either a day before or right before AF. Mine drops and then I get AF later that day. What has your temp done?

I have had implantation spotting before and the timing on it sounds right to me. I am not sure if that is what is going on though. For me it was really light pinkish/brownish spotting. I pretty much only noticed when I wiped and it only happened a couple of times.

I think if it is very light, implantation spotting is more likely than if it is heavier but I have seen gals describe it as being like a light period. I think every woman is different so you probably just have to wait and see.
