Brief Answer:
get a urine pregnancy test done first...explained.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query,
If you feel that the bleeding on XXXXXXX 8th for 2 days was an implantation bleed ad if you have not resumed your menses again after that even till today , then it is important to rule out pregnancy with a blood serum beta hcg test or a urine pregnancy test.
If the test is positive , then you are pregnant and the spotting then for 2 days was an implantation bleed.
If the test is negative then it is likely that the bleed was a timely ovulation bleed accompanied by mild cramps called MITTELSCHMERTZ phenomenon and common to most women ( it was your day 16 of menstrual cycle ).
