Implantation
What is it?
After the egg has released it only has 12-24 hours to be fertilised.
Once fertilised in the fallopian tube the egg is sucked through the fallopian tube into the womb. It will arrive in the womb around 5 days after conception.
Once there the egg (also known as the 'blatocyst') begins the process of attaching itself to the endometrium by digging and burrowing into the lining and producing hcg.
How long does it take?
Just because the fertilised egg 'can' arrived in the womb at 5dpo it doesn't necessary mean it will immiediately start to implant, often the fertilised egg floats around for a while before decided to embed and dig itself in. It usually takes about a week on average for implantation to start but i can happen anywhere between 6dpo and 12dpo.
Implantation 'can' happen in as little as one day but can take up to 4 or 5 full days to complete and for the blatocyst to completely attach.
Over 80% of pregnancies implantation will occur between 8-10 dpo.
It can then take a further 2 to 4 days for your kidneys to process the hcg and secrete it into your urine so it can be picked up on a HPT.
If you experience implantation bleeding you should try and wait 2-4 days after it's stopped before you test (unsing a test at 25mUL or less) it is possible to still get a negative at this point, if you do, wait 48-72 hours and re-test (this is the time it takes for hcg to double)
Yeah but when can i test?
Detection of hCG depends on timing of implantation, so hCG can normally be detected in the blood between nine and 16 days after ovulation (HPT: 12-19 days after ovulation).
Okay so just say everything runs perfectly and the blatocyst arrives in your uterus at 5dpo and imlants in a day it is 'possible' to get a +hpt at around 8dpo.
However, on average it won't start to implant into the womb until 8dpo. Say once again you're lucky and it only takes a day to implant then you could on average get a bfp at 9po. Hence where many early test hpt's claim you can get a +hpt 6 days before your period.
Yet, bare in mind it may not occur until 12dpo and it 'may' take 4 full days to complete so that would take you up 15dpo. It 'can' then take up to four days for the hcg to be secreted into your urine so hello?! that's 18/19dpo already before you can get a +hpt. yes, this means implantation may not complete until AFTER your AF is due.
Infact, research found that 10% of pregnancies may not show up on a hpt on the first day of your missed period. [ https://community.babycentre.co.uk/post/a2278545/helpful_research ]
Symptoms of Implantation.
In all honesty the majority of woman will not get any symptoms of implantation.
Implantation cramps: small cramps inside the uterus
Implantation spotting or bleeding: Short brief spotting (a couple of drops of light or dark blood)
A second temperature shift on the temperature curve
A temperature dip at about seven to ten days after ovulation
Tell me more on implantation bleeding please?
Okay so the ever elusive and much talked about implantation bleeding. Despite how it may see it's actually not 'that' common occurance with it generally happening in only 30% of pregnancies.
While there is no way of being 100% sure whether spotting is an implantation bleed until you have missed a period there are a couple of useful indicators that can help you check.
Appearance - Implantation bleeding tends to be a lighter pink/brown colour rather than the dark red that's usual for menstrual blood. Sometimes it may even appear as a light flow of bright red blood
Timing - If you conceive you will experience implantation bleeding before your period is due, usually around 9 days after you ovulate (but can occur between 6dpo and 12dpo on average).
Duration - Implantation bleeding tends only to last for a day or two and occurs intermittently.
Heaviness - Unlike the progressively heavy flow of a menstrual period, implantation bleeding tends only to occur as light spotting or coloured discharge the flow will not 'increase' as you'd expect AF to.

I'm so confused can it still be IB or is this a bad sign 
also don't know if this makes a difference but I have been hungry 24/7! And (sorry if tmi again) but just starting today I have been having ewcm. I didn't test again yet, waiting until the 6th (15dpo) AF due the 10th. Good luck to everyone for a bfp!! 
stays away. how long have you been TTC?? x
well not to long actually about 5 cycles but it took me a long time to come to terms with Domninick's (DS) birth and passing, he was born 01-06-2010 and I just recently (About 6 months ago) decided to start trying again. And I know things take time but I was hoping for a miracle bfp before or on the 6th (tomorrow). He was full term and I know EVERY loss of a child is tragic and im not minimizig miscarrage at all, but it was incredibly hard for me to look into his eyes and know that I felt him grow, kick, and deliver him and it was the first and last time I would see him. So hopefully my little 
in heaven will give me a miracle bfp tomorrow (14dpo) if nothing Im sure Im out. Hopefully this was IB :/ goodluck to everyone for bfp!
