Advice / Direction needed please

I need some advice please. My ‘FWB’ partner is as regular as clockwork, always 25/27 days.
She was due on Friday 17th April, she had a very pink smear on tissue from a wipe at 10:30am, then 24 hours later, she had much darker, brown and very clotted blood on a tissue, but not the normal bright red and volume period she would usually have. Sunday was a much, much lighter smear on tissue, she then had a very small amount of blood on a pad on Monday.
We had unprotected sex and then finished with a condom on day 19 of her cycle (10th April) and we are worried she may be pregnant.
We have tested multiple times up to this morning (23rd April) with Clearblue digital ultra (10mIU/ml) tests, all negative.
She did have a small bout of sickness on Saturday afternoon, but has been fine since; she is going through grief at present with a family death anniversary.
We believe she ovulates around day 11 normally so day 19 should be safer, and with us both being 43 years old, the chances are lower.
We have now tasted 12 days after sex, and five days after her period should have been.
The bleeding she did have was very clotted so not sure if it could have been implantation?
Should we just put this down to a strange period and accept the negative test result?
Thanks in advance!
