About four weeks ago, I started feeling nauseaus(sorry, no idea how to spell it), exhausted (had to take a nap during the day to make it through the day), had bad heartburn when I normally don't, was running a slight fever for the last two weeks, had sore breasts, had headaches, and felt like something else was in control of my body. I'm usually very healthy and do not fall ill regularly so I was suspicious from the beginning when I began experiencing these symptoms though I honestly thought I had the flu.

When I was late, I didn't worry at first because I always run one or two days late when i'm expecting my period. When I hit 5 days late, I called and made an appointment with the doctor. I took a pregnancy test but it came back negative. The night before my doctor's appointment, I went to bed early and woke up in the night with some really horrible cramps. Two hours after they started, I noticed some very, very pink blood (almost flourescent pink). A few hours more, I passed a clot (which freaked me out). For a full day after that the discharge was very dark brown, gooey, and clumpy. Only in the past day has the discharge returned to a normal color and consistency for me. Because I had started bleeding, I called the next morning and canceled my appointment. If I had kept the appointment, I would have been 9 days late.

Could I have been pregnant and miscarried before finding out? Can you be pregnant and still have a "negative" pregnancy test with a home test?

If I did miscarry, should I make another appointment to the doctor to have an ultrasound to make sure that everything has come out alright? I don't want to have an infection.

What is everyone's suggestion?
