What would explain this?

So I got AF on March 5th, and it lasted through the 7th. Now I've been seeing brownish blood (old blood) when I wipe, starting on March 20th and going through today. Hubby and I have been TTC baby #2. However, on March 9th I had a blood test done before an x-ray, and it was negative. I'm hoping someone could shed some light on this for me. I'm planning to take a HPT in the next day or so, but for now I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this.

Update:

About my ovulating: I'm not sure if my system is back in sync since I got off the depo provera (my last shot was September of 07). AF hasn't come every month since before I was pregnant, although I had AF in February and March, so maybe that's a good sign.

Update 2:

hubby just reminded me that the test at the clinic was urine, not blood. My bad.

    Sounds like implantation bleeding to me, wait about 2 weeks and take a test, it should show up then. If you take a urine test now, your hcg levels will most likely not be high enough to detect. You could have a blood test in about a week and see what it shows. I hope you get your BFP this month. Best of luck and tons of baby dust

    Sounds like it's either ovulation spotting as you can spot during ovulation or you ovulated sooner then expected and it's implantation spotting. =) Try waiting a few more days before testing. *smiles*
