Cramping and Bleeding Early Pregnancy

Hello ladies, firstly would like to say that all yer posts are really helpful especially in the TWW and thank you for posting. My husband and I have been ttc for 8 mths now, both my husband and i have older children so we have both conceived before. I am convinced i am pregnant now as i had symptoms, my bbt raised, headaches, increased appetite, tingly itchy nipples, and just feeling pregnant, i know i ovulated as had egg white cm (tmi), then after ovulation i had milky white cm for about 10 days up to about a week ago when it stopped and started again and then stopped, when i seen the milky white cm i was so happy, i never remember having this in the previous months but then i wasn't taking notice of cm too much but i am sure i would have seen it in my underwear as it was white, I always get creamy brown spotting like old blood and bad cramps few days before AF is due but not this month felt absolutely normal, no pms, however AF was due 21/4 yesterday but she never came instead i had cramping no bleeding or spotting.

I had this cramping on and off which started around lunch time, the cramping would come and go which has never happened with me either, if i cramp it usually is very bad and continuous. I found the whole situation very odd and there was no brown cm just cramping no bleeding or any sign of AF, so in the evening time the cramping had stopped, felt completely normal and very happy, when i went to bed at 10pm i felt a little head-cold coming on and had some nausea, i then turned over on my tummy and the nausea left and i fell to sleep.

Then i awoke this morning early for work at 06.30 am with sore tummy yes more sore than cramping, went to the toilet and there was some red watery blood not thick when i wiped so i applied a tampon as i had to work. In work the bleeding on the tampon was dark and light watery red not much, looks like old dark blood mixed with a little watery light red blood, it has lightened off now so i have removed the tampon and replaced it with a liner, cramps have gone again, i have a head-cold and on/off left sided back pain with the soreness in my tummy still coming and going but feels so different than normal menstrual cycle, there is a lot going on with my body atm and i am completely exhausted. I did do a clear blue digital pt few days ago and it was negative but i know it was too early to test, when i was pregnant on my son i done a pt then too and it was negative but found out few weeks later that i actually was pregnant and had a healthy baby boy. I will be doing another clear blue digital pt in the morning so i will update then, just wondering if anyone is going through any similar signs. Should i use a digital or the one that shows the lines pt?? ill do the test in the morning and if positive ill book in with doctor.
