Implantation Bleeding Or Irregular Period

thefragileheart - August 10

My last normal period was May 15-19. I re-started Birth Control May 20th. I had been off my Birth Control Pills for 3-4 months prior to this. Was having normal periods even after discontinuing Birth Control. I was then s_xually active during a vacation with my boyfriend every day, multiple times a day from May 27th-June 3rd. The 31st I skipped a Birth Control Pill by accident. Wasn't taking them at the same time every day anyway. June 8th I decided I didn't want to take the pills anymore. Stopped taking them. Didn't get my period during the usual time frame. Was s_xually active (unprotected) from July 3-6. Still hadn't gotten my period. Then July 7-10 I got an irregular period. Was then s_xually active (unprotected) every day, sometimes multiple times a day, from July 11th- August 6th. Did not get my period during the usual time frame. Was confused if I should judge from my original normal period time frame, or the last irregular period I had. The past 2 weeks I have been having bloating, gas, constipation, lower back ache, my hips and knees ache, lack of appet_te, at the same time that I don't feel like eating I feel like eating everything in the house for no reason, have been extremely irritable and sometimes weepy, my br___ts have been swelling, and are sore whenever my boyfriend touches them, occasionally I get pangs of pain in my nipples as well as little raised bumps and I see my veins really distinctly, the past 5-8 days I've had dizzy spells, and nausea that gets progressively worse every day, my uterus area feels hot at times and hard if I push down on the outside, also urinate more frequently, I also can't sleep well past few days. Basically, multiple early pregnancy signs. I was feeling nauseous after s_x this past week. And getting this white discharge on occasion. A mucus substance but sometimes more liquid like. For a few days August 6-8 I kept feeling wet in my underwear like I'd wet myself, but then there wouldn't be anything there. But then yesterday August 9th around 1 pm I got some dark brown mixed with pink spotting. It was light and still just spotting until about 6 pm when it got a little heavier like the beginning of a period and the blood was bright red. Not much on the pad, but a lot when I wipe. From around 12 midnight to 1:30-2am I felt this gushing feeling almost like I would wet myself a little, when I went to the bathroom I wiped a bright red watery blood. There were a few weird dots in it. Nothing like my usual period or even like my irregular period last month. Also there are no cramps at all which is strange because every period I've ever had came with horrible cramps. There is no pain. After that gush it's now back to spotting dark brown. It's 1:30pm August 10th and it feels like it might be over soon. Barely anything now. I feel horribly nauseous right now. Also concerned. I really want to be pregnant. After all that unprotected s_x, shouldn't I be pregnant by now?? But is this my period being irregular and funky, or could it be improbable implantation bleeding? If it is just a false alarm, how can I increase my chances of becoming pregnant? I know absolutely nothing about any of this. I went to a private school that didn't have a health class or anything like that. So I'm clueless. I thought it was easy to get pregnant. All that unprotected s_x should have done the trick... right?

A period-like bleed is not uncommon in the first trimester. With all those early signs it's time to take a couple of tests at one week intervals using first morning pee. Best of luck!

It continued for several more hours after I posted this. But it was over before 1 pm today. So less than 48 hours. So I shouldn't be completely disappointed yet? I'll take a test in a week or so just in case.

I have irregular periods and they only last exactly 3days (it always stops on the second day nothing on the 3rd day and comes back the fourth day). I had my period around August 2nd to the 5th. I had unprotected s_x on August 24th and on the 29th. On the 31st I started spotting and it lasted 2 days. On the 9th of September I started spotting again now for about 5 days. On the fifth day (the 13th) it was like I got my period and today the 14th I'm still bleeding. I do not want to worry but do wonder what's going on, I'm so scared I might have something that I'm not aware of, has anyone had something similar happened to them?

I forgot to mention I'm 32 and my friend said I'm getting older and my body changes. I'm calling the nurse today to see if they can tell me what's going on.

Chayito, are you having annual obgyn checkups? It's time to get started. Any change in bleeding pattern should be checked out. GL!

Yes my annual checkup is a month away. Talked to a nurse today said it could be some changes with my period since I'm getting older and to just worry if I start having heavy bleeding or call them if I get a positive pregnancy test.
