Yes I did, AF was due Friday and I spotted a bit on the prior Tuesday. Apparently it is VERY common. It's called implantation bleeding which occurs when the egg implants into the uterine lining. Good luck with your BFP!

ive heard loads about that, but i think its too late for implantation bleeding, especially if i ovulated early this month on cd12?

thanks hun,im so confused

Implantation bleeding happens in the first 3-5weeks of pregnancy and usually doesn't last more than two days. I don't know how preg you'd be if you are?

 

[HAYS]

i thought it happened 6-12 days after ovulation, which would work out about right for me?? still convinced shes going to show up

Even if you conceived 2 weeks ago, it takes a while for the egg to get down to your uterus and find a nice place to settle in for the next 9 months. I too was suprised at how long it floats around before implanting.

if you're getting implantation bleeding now that'd explainin your bfn's aswell

I didn't have bleeding but 2 days before AF was due i had really bad cramps (a bit worse than the type i usually get before AF is due) so i was convinced i wasn't preg... just shows how wrong you can be ;-)

Well according to my dates I got pregnant during my period (im not quite sure how!) so I guess you probably could have had bleeding and still been pregnant. Have a word with your dr though, I doubt its anything serious.

And Congratulations on your BFP
