I don't think that it is implantation bleeding. It is very heavy. It started as a heavy period. I usually start very light, however this time it was bright red when i started and more than usual for the first day. It is usually pink for a day and light for the first day or two. I didn't have any cramping until the second day of my period which is unusual also. I usually cramp for two or three days prior to my period. I had no warning that I was about to start. Does this sound like a miscarriage to you? >--
