Question

Slight bleeding?! Could I be pregnant..?

So, I am 16 days past ovulation, and I have missed my period 6 days now. This afternoon I went to the bathroom, and when I wiped, there was light pink on the tissue. About an hour later, it's super light bleeding, but it's more of a pink ish red color. Could I be pregnant?

Have you tested? That's typically how my period always starts, but everyone is different. Also, is your luteal phase normally 10 days? That's very, very short. Most drs treat luteal phase defects if they fall under 11-12 days (avg is 14).

I have tested. And got a negative. But I think if I am pregnant, maybe it's too early to test

yea 10 days is pretty short for your luteal phase.. are you sure that's right and you didn't miscalculate..? if not, this COULD be implantation bleeding but it sounds more like the start of AF.. depends if you kept bleeding or not and if this is normal for you..? OR you could be having a chemical pregnancy/miscarriage, in which case those are normally very heavy bleeding with clotting. You'll have to wait and see if the bleeding subsides or not.. take a test asap! that could give you allll the answers your looking for. BUT if you do get a BFP, be cautious because you still could be having a chemical pregnancy/miscarriage...even if you miscarry, your body still have HCG in it for a few days to a few weeks so you could still register positive tests. Be cautious. If all else fails, call your doc and see whats going on. HOPE THIS HELPED AND GOOD LUCK!!! keep us posted please!! :)

So the bleeding is getting less, and turning more a pink color. It's super light for a period for me. Which is why I think maybe it might be implantation?! I think I calculated wrong. I am 31 day cycle. And that means I ovulated around the 8-12th.. It's just all so weird. I am so confused. :(
