haha. Why arn't you convinced? Ok, details. This afternoon before I took a nap (i went to wal mart and was so tired by the end of thirty minutes I had to come home and take a three hour nap, lol) I started to get this dark brown discharge, so I put in a tampon. There was one light pink stain on it a few hours later, and that was it. I was having sex, and the condom was pink afterwards. And when I pee there is blood, but not enough to even drip into the toilet, I know, tmi, but anyway, when I pee there is blood on the tp.

Please, seriously, is there any reason a pregnant woman would be getting spotting? I'm so anxious now bc I was upset when it came, even though I knew it was best. So. Is there seriously any reason to ignore the blood and still think????????????????????????????????????? ?????????????


some women get their period or something like it for months into their pregnancy. I mean, i'm still thinking because of your boobs being so sore. Why did that happen? It doesn't really make sense. And being so tired after going to wal-mart for thirty minutes? I know wal-mart is a mad house, but that tired, to sleep for 3 hours? Just sounds a little fishy. Oh yeah, btw, you don't need to use protection when you're pregnant. Laughing

Implantation Bleeding
Posted: 12-07-04 08:17am

Implantation bleeding occurs during implantation of the egg cell

it occurs towards the end of the implantation process . The trophoblast is a highly specialized tissue. It develops from the fertilized egg and surrounds the egg. It attaches the egg to the endometrium and as it is continuously growing it invades the endometrium. As it eats its way into the endometrium it pulls the egg into the endometrium. It ( the trophoblast) also invades the mothers blood vessels and divert her blood to cavities inside the trophoblast. These cavities are than filled by maternal blood becoming blood lakes. Most of the lakes are connected. The trophoblast on the outer surface of the egg are thinner and slower growing but also contains cavities that are connected to the deeper cavities. Some of these outer cavities communicate or open into the uterine cavity. Blood that leaks from these cavities are causing implantation bleeding. It occurs shortly before the egg is completely implanted and completely covered with endometrium.

Typical implantation bleeding occurs about four weeks after the last menstrual period. It is usually less and darker than the person's normal menstruation. The diagnosis of typical implantation bleeding is made in retrospect. The duration of the pregnancy is four weeks more than expected, because the last period recorded by the patient was the implantation bleeding and not her last menstruation.

Implantation bleeding has no adverse effects on a pregnancy.

Some experts doubt the existence of implantation bleeding . If you search for "implantation bleeding" you will come across sites that doubt if it ever occurs. The fact however remains that some women ( we estimate about 1%-2%) has a bleeding about 4 weeks after the last menstrual period with a pregnancy duration 4 weeks longer than expected.
