Implantation Bleeding - How Long Does It Last? Posted: 09-09-07 20:33pm
Hey girls,
I have a question about implantation
bleeding. I apologize in advance if
something like this has been asked
before.
Approx. the week of the 21st of August was
supposed to be my most fertile time of my
cycle (with the 25th being perhaps the
best day for us to conceive) The Hub and
I 'baked' (as my good friend likes to say
- now that she knows we're trying for #3 -
LOL) every other day that week, including
the 25th. From what I read, implantation
bleeding can take place anywhere from 7-14
days after BMS.
Last Wednesday I noticed a wee bit of
spotting when I wiped after going to the
bathroom. It has happened a few times on
and off since. Ive noticed some
spotting/streaks when I wipe today. Its
brownish in colour and today Ive had a few
cramps. Im 'due' to get my period today,
but other than the spotting (which started
last week) nothing has happened yet.
So I guess my question is this - How long
does implantation bleeding last? (and
could that be what Im experiencing - or is
my period on its way?)
How soon after the implantation bleeding,
or the expected date of my period can I
take a HPT?
I look forward to your responses!

hello, implantation bleeding usually lasts
about 2 days but everyone is different,
and what u are experiencing may have been
implantation bleeding, i am also ttc and i
had what i believe is implantation
bleeding a few days ago (around 9-10 dpo)
and it was light pink and only lasted one
day. My period is due today and if it does
not come i will be testing tomorrow. That
means u could actually test today and get
an accurate result!!
Good Luck!!!

Well, I did test yesterday, and got a BFN
(
However, I still havent had anything but
very, *very* light spoting. We're talking
hardly anything at all. So Im guessing
its just a really light period. However,
when I found out I was pregnant with my
daughter, I was a good 5 weeks along
before I even got a glimmer of a positive
result on a HPT. So maybe Im just testing
too early for my body.
Who knows. *sighs*

maybe u should test again in about two
weeks, if still bfn then get a blood test,
so they could check your hcg levels
