Question

Implantation bleeding or very early period?

I am 9DPO, I have an average cycle of 34 days (going off of the past three months) today is cycle 27; I believe I ovulated on cycle day 18, had my first positive OPK on cycle day 17.

Any way, I started bleeding today after using the rest room, it was pink, then slowly started to become bright red. I tried using a pad to figure out how much I was bleeding, but since I went to a pool party today I used a tampon, when I got home, the tampon was not full and had a mix of bright blood and some dark brown. I barely have any cramps, and when i do it is very light. I notice more blood when I go to the rest room, but have a dry pad. Oh I also noticed 4 small stringy blood clots sorry TMI. So far I haven't noticed it getting heavier just consistent spotting, like a light period. I have been googling implantation bleeding all day, and I wanted to know y'all's experiences. Does it sound more like implantation, or a period a week early? I'm so confused and I feel so bummed out.

Note: I also take 85mg of chewable baby aspirin every day, not sure if this would affect implantation bleeding. I also had implantation bleeding with my last two pregnancies but nothing like this.

I had implantation bleeding with my second child at the time my real period was due. It lasted for four days and for sure looked and felt to me like a real period. The temperatures stayed up on my chart and a positive test confirmed the pregnancy. Baby aspirin to my knowledge does not affect implantation bleeding. Best wishes and the Lord's blessings.
