Brown period

Hello, last week my period came but it was brown blood the whole time. For 6 days. Normally I’ll get that towards the end of my cycle, but it was like that the whole time. I did have sore boobs (which I never get) and cramping. My husband and I have been trying for a baby and now I’m realizing that it was a little abnormal for me.. now I am very nauseated in the morning (nauseous all day just not as bad) and I have been crying all evening for no reason 😂 not sure if it was just a period or actually spotting? Has this happened with anyone before and you were pregnant? I just ordered tests and I’m waiting to get them in..
