A fertilized egg can implant anywhere from 6-12 dpo, with 9 being avg. With my pregnancies I never knew when implantation occurred. However, it does take a few days for the hcg to reach your urine in high enough levels to be detected by a hpt once implantation occurs. If you're too anxious to wait for when AF is due, wait at least 2 days to retest. That will be more accurate. Gl!

Thank you! Do you think it's implantation bleeding? My period is due in 4 days.

Implantation spotting/bleeding is fairly rare. Depending on your source, only 5-25% of women experience it. That being said, some women do, so it isn't impossible. You're just going to have to wait it out. I know it sucks, but that's all you can do!

I've had implantation bleeding now three times. First time it was 5-7 days before my af was due. Some pink spotting onpantyliner. Second some light pink on tp when I wiped around 5 days before af. This time some stretchy brown mucus and light pink blood on tp when I wiped, with some cramping. Next day some cramping with brown blood. Which was justold bblood from implantation. This happened 3 days before af. Took a test when I was one day late & got a definite positive. GL and hopefully this will be your month!!!
