implantation bleed or AF? *UPDATE*
I am not due for AF until Tuesday, although this is only my 2nd month off the pill so I can't really say for sure b/c my cycles are all screwy. But, last night when I went to the bathroom I noticed the lightest pink on the paper when I wiped (sorry, TMI). I didn't have anything this morning and I don't feel like I'm getting AF. Usually, I can feel AF coming before she makes her appearance. Could this be implantation bleeding? I know most women don't even get that, so I'm leaning more towards AF rearing her ugly head.
ETA Monday: Ok, so AF is due tomorrow (Tuesday). I still don't feel like AF is coming, but I have been "spotting" a brown discharge for about 2 days now. It is not like my normal period at all and I usually don't spot the week before I get my period. I think the only way for me to determine what is going on is to test.

Re: implantation bleed or AF?

Same here.
Found this for you:
What does implantation bleeding or spotting look like?
Implantation bleeding, also called implantation spotting, does not look like a regular menstrual period. Implantation bleeding is scanty and usually pink or brownish discharge.
Implantation bleeding or menstrual period?
Implantation bleeding normally occurs a week to a few days before your period would normally start. Spotting that occurs around a week after ovulation is likely implantation bleeding; whereas, spotting that occurs very close to the time that your period would normally start may not be. A normal menstrual cycle generally starts off light and then gets heavier. Spotting can sometimes be the sign of an early period. If this is the case, the spotting will pick up to heavier bleeding. If you have spotting right around the time your period would normally start, it can be more confusing. You will need to take the wait and see approach or take a pregnancy test to determine pregnancy.
