Early Pregnancy Spotting

Hello Ladies,
I am after a bit of insight. Hubby and I have been TTC for over a year now and this month I am currently 3 days late. (I know I should take a test but didn't want to jump the gun) However today I have very light brown spotting (only when I wipe - Sorry TMI) Is this just my period arriving late(it is always smack bang on the date) or can this be a symptom of early pregnancy? I cant remember if I had any spotting with my other pregnancies
Thanks x

It can be a sign of early pregnancy, not every woman will experience spotting, i never did personally. But i know many that have and again with every pregnancy it varies. Good luck with it all, wait a few more days and if aunt flow doesn't make her appearance, then take a test

Could be implantation spotting, you may have ovulated a bit later than normal. Give it another few days and retest :)

To be honest it could be pregnancy but it may not. The only way to tell is either an at home or blood test..i know its not helpful but its honest

It could be implantation bleeding.
When i fell pregnan with my daughter i had implantation bleeding..exactly like you explained.. that afternoon i went to the drs and had a blood test done to see if i was pregnant..when i got the results back my dr said it was negative and i wasnt pregnant...1 month later i took a home test and i was pregnant! I had an ultrasound done a couple of days later and i was 5-6 weeks pregnant... so the bleed i had was a implantation bleed and i had been pregnant that whole time..i have no idea why the blood test didnt pick it up...i would have been between 6-12 days pregnant when i had the implantation bleed and blood test..so yea im jist saying it may not show up on a urine test.. a blood teste is more likely to pick it up early..however sometimes the bloods dont pick it up so earpy either... maybe give it a week or 2 and go and get a blood test done..good luck ?

It happens every month with me, also trying to conceive so take notice of every little thing that happens, periods always start, when I was first pregnsnt with my first child i didn't get the brown. Good luck
