Implantation? Miscarriage? Pregnant? It's like a game show.

This time last week (Wednesday) I thought I must be going through a particularly painful ovulation since the timing seemed about right. The pain got worse. Then on Monday this week, 4th May, I started spotting. Light and pink. Oh, implantation? I thought. But yesterday it turned heavier and brown with red clots but still different to usual AF. Today is much the same. Home test was negative. If it is AF I'm early. I'm never early. About 25 days compared to my usual 28-36.

I'm stressed to death as I've previously had an ectopic that started kinda similarly. Or could this just be a very early miscarriage? Or still a potential pregnancy that's too early to test?

Any clues please ladies?

I'm not an expert, but I have had periods like that....it's rare that I'm early, but when it happens it's usually different than a regular period. In my case, I knew I wasn't pregnant, as I wasn't having sex lol. Our bodies do strange things, I wouldn't worry at this point. HTH

I don't know how helpful this will be as I've never had implantation bleeding or an ectopic pregnancy, but I have had multiple miscarriages.

The miscarriages started as you described, spotting which turned into heavy bleeding with clots. Do you still have pain? All of my miscarriages had fairly painful cramping - much more than my usual period cramping.
