Implantation dip and spotting

[TTCmama]

I am having trouble finding this answer via Google.  Does anyone know if implantation spotting can occur the same day as an implantation dip or can it occur a couple of days later?

TIA!

I think very little is known about implantation symptoms...  implantation dips and implantation spotting are both quite uncommon.  But if that is what you are experiencing I see no reason why you could not see spotting on the same day as a temp dip.  If implantation occurred in the last couple of days, causing the dip this morning, then blood from the burrowing embryo certainly could make its way down today.

However, it is my personal opinion that if you experience a dip in temp caused by fluctuating progesterone and/or surging estrogen that these hormones are the more likely cause of a bit of spotting or even bleeding rather than from the embryo burrowing into the endometrium.  Though this opinion certainly does not make your chances of being pregnant any less! 

Keep us posted!

Yeah, I had a dip on Thursday and 1x pink spotting yesterday, then barely any brown and now nada since lunch time yesterday.  So I was wondering is implantation spotting could happen 2 days after an implantation dip (if that's what it was).  So far all my tries on Google has not provided any info.

It's just so hard to say.  It could be.  It could not be.  But either way since it stopped for now I would take that as an encouraging sign.  When do you plan to test?
