implantation or AF? HELP!!!!!!

Okay, going to try my best to write this all out and hopefully make sense. lol i know the typical Take a test answer.. but i am not sure WHEN to test.

BF and I had sex on Nov 5th .. on my calender app it says its an ovulation day. Nov 20... 5 days early before expected period I started what I thought was AF.. only when I wiped I noticed it. Brownish Red.. put a tampon in. Had some cramping. usually my periods are VERY heavy, insanely sore... need a heating pad or something and alot of motrin. not this time.

Very light period, hardly fills a regular tampon, and it only lasted 2.5 days..(usually lasts 5 days) completely stopped tonight (half day) I have this weird tugging sensation in my stomach, anxiety is through the roof, like I am always sighing...brutally moody. and headaches. hungry yet not. its weird. totally not like me at all. oh and it was a watery period... no clots ... I took a test right before this bleeding started and it was negative.. (too soon maybe?) because literally an hour after the light bleed started. wouldnt call it a flow at all.

Not sure what to make of this ... and don't want to tell the BF until I know either way for sure. we don't need two crazy people stressing out lol Google is our enemy lol

please help, I am not sure if I test now or wait a bit more. I know some ppl have tested yet got false negatives due to testing too soon, or they conceived late.

also dizzy and off balance as well.

I think you should wait until the spotting stops.  Implantation bleeding can last up to 5 days but it is very light, thus it can also be called spotting.

How long does the bleeding last .. It stopped last night all night and today when I wiped it was brown again? I'm so confused .. If I was pg would a test work now ? Or wait to see if this spotting stops?

Hmm sounds like it was implantation bleeding. Try taking a test five days from now. I also had some spotting and light cramping a week before today, when I finally got AF.
Good luck :)
