Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Implantation bleeding usually occurs within4-5 days of conception , which comes around day 19-20 of a normal menstrual period of 28-30 days.
The spotting in your case can be implantation bleeding only in case you had a delayed ovulation and hence delayed conception.
Urine pregnancy test comes positive only about10-11 days after implantation.
You should avoid intercourse and heavy work.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
