Trying to Get Pregnant

Haywire Horomones and Spotting?

This is gonna be a long one folks😂😪
I had unprotected intercourse March 21 and I know I ovulated at some point during then. Within a week I started getting very emotional and bloated and my boobs got very swollen and the fatigue was just crazy and cramping and nausea! My period was due April 10th but arrived on the 6th and it is NEVER early. (I have very very heavy and long 6 day periods normally). On the 6th (Apr) I had brown spotting that became heavier and more than spotting with clots here and there. I was surprised when it stopped out of nowhere though (it only lasted 2 1/2 days???) I took a hpt few days after but it came back negative (had an extra test lying around). My nausea persisted though and I just couldn't look or think about certain foods without being grossed out or disgusted. I've had bouts of dizziness as well from then all the way till now including more need to urinate. Told my doctor about everything and they did a blood test a week after my short period. It took a few days for results so I took a hpt in the mean time (16th Apr) and there was a VERY VERY faint line. Almost missed it even. The next day my blood test results came back - Not pregnant! I was kind of shocked because of the symptoms I had been having.
The past few days though my appetite is just non existent and I just feel very very off.
(Vivid dreams and waking up randomly throughout the night and a tan line that's below my belly button that's gotten darker)
Today (21st) I went to urinate and there was spotting! This time a light pink ranging to a rusty brown with slight cramping and I woke up with a dull headache. I'm kind of freaked out so I took a pretnancy test in the afternoon and it was negative for sure - no faint line or anything- just maybe a small view of the evaporation line.
I just dont feel good right now and I want to know what my body is doing?? I never spot ever!
My mother didnt find out she was pregnant until almost 8 weeks with me and she had bleeding when she was pregnant with my brother because he nearly tried to form in the fallopian tube (he made it down there eventually lol)
Could I be pregnant? Or is my body just trying to put me through the ringer?

    Hi and welcome. Sorry your body is giving you a rough time and some confusing symptoms. Unfortunately none of us are your doctor and we cannot possibly know whether you could be pregnant - additionally, it is actually against the rules of this forum to ask if you might be pregnant. If you are trying to get pregnant and want to stick around and join this wonderful community of women, please read the pinned posts at the top (especially "Newbies, Read This First") and then introduce yourself in the Newbies Intro post. Hope your body (or your doctor) gives you some answers soon!
