Late period / negative test.

I am very positive I ovulated the week of October 1st. Which is a week later than I was supposed to. I spotted very lightly for 4 days which would have been the time my period would have started for ovulating late. Every test I have taken has been negative. How ever I have constant nausea randomly and my boobs hurt and other little pregnancy symptoms just not a positive test. I talked with my doctor because I had an appointment after spotting to go over blood work that I had done several weeks prior she said to count the spotting as my period so I did. I woke up this morning to heavy bleeding. I never ovulated from the spotting to this bleeding and if I count the spotting as a period I’m not supposed to start for 10 days… I’m not really looking for answers just venting but wtf is my body doing because I’m over it 🙃 would you count the spotting as a period or this as my period?
