How common is it? I have had two children and I can't for the life of me remember having this? Maybe I did and just really didn't think much of it?? What are your thoughts on this? Is it really common? Do all women have it?

No, in fact... implantation bleeding is the exception and not the norm. I think people here make a bigger deal out of it than it is. It only happens to a small percentage of pregnant women. Yet people here seem to look for it like it's a tell-tale sign.
Implantation is more like spotting that occurs when you wipe or in your underwear.... for a day or so, no longer. Also, it happens about a week before your period would normally be due (NOT after you've already found out you're pregnant like a lot of women think).
If you did get it, it was so non-eventful you probably blew it off. It's really not as big an occurrence as it's made out to be. You probably didn't have it. When I was pregnant, I didn't.
Good luck.

Implantation bleeding is very rare, only about 8% of women will actually experience implantation bleeding.

No it is not common to notice it. I think we all bleed a tiny amount when the baby implants, but it is such a small amount most don't notice it.
