I'm 5 weeks and 4 days. I got sick with strep throat and lost my voice over thanksgiving but decided to go Black Friday shopping anyways. I woke up today and peed and had a small amount of blood when I wiped. Decided to go into the clinic to see if anything was wrong. Doc took my blood to get HCG levels and told me to come back Sunday to test again to see if they are going up or down. While at the doc's I peed again and had more blood come out. Looks like the beginning of my period. Thick and red. Have had some light cramping. Anyone have a similar experiance? Of course we won't know for a few days but can't help but expect the worst. And of course I feel so guilty like maybe I pushed myself too hard shopping last night and should have just stayed home.
