Need help: spotting and bleeding

Sorry if tmi, but I am 6 weeks and 5 days with my first and I started spotting about 1pm bright red. Not a lot but still worried me. After a few hours it turned more muddy brown and red, along with red blood. Around 5pm I was cramping and Around 7pm I started bleeding and passing clots. Is there anything I can do about the situation or is it completely out of my hands? I was told by my boyfriends boss (old ems) to go home and elevate my lower half which I am currently doing. If it continues I guess doctor in the morning. But any advice would be appreciated
