Me and my boyfriend are actively trying to get pregnant. The last two week I’ve been having really bad pregnancy symptoms for the last. Like everything, fuller breasts, severe moods swings, nausea, severe smell sensitivity just to name a few. Today I should have started my period but yesterday I started spotting. It started off very very light pink and brownish on some occasions. I never start my period early so I immediately looked it up and read about implantation bleeding so as the day went on the amount stayed the same and even into most of today. Also the consistency was like mucus. So I thought for sure that was what I was experiencing. Today I experienced slight cramping that felt like if I were on my period it only lasted for like maybe 5- 10 mins on and off. I’ve been checking every 30 mins and the spotting has gotten a lot brighter and it’s definitely increased but only a lil in amount but still only when I wipe. Not enough for a pad or even panty liner. My legs are extremely achy currently and it’s just scaring me because I don’t know if my body is trying to reject it or if it’s normal and this is just the implantation process. The color mid way today scared me because everything I had originally read said it shouldn’t be bright red. Still no blood clots tho. Just a bright reddish pink and mucus -ey. The leg aches accompanying this increase and change in color are also freaking me out. My periods are usually somewhat heavy and never start like this so this is definitely not normal for me so I know something is different. Also I’ve taken 3 dollar store tests and they all were negative. I know I have to wait till the spotting stops for the hormones to show so I will wait and try again to test. Hopefully this spotting doesn’t increase I’m just having uncertain feelings about the color I am seeing and if is normal .

We had sex during my ovulation and the timing of all of this adds up to what I’ve researched with when implantation should occur which is now, its coming to happen when your period is due. Has anyone else experienced light bright spotting during implantation?
