Icky question about AF

My af showed today...but a bit odd. Was wondering if its normal to have a medium flow...pink, but very slimey, and stretchy. (Sorry TMI) It started in the afternoon, and now its slowed down to more of light spotty. But still really slimy like. Sorry about the gross description....but was curious about it. LOL

That is how mine is, but mine was very light, and dark. Still the same "texture" though. I don't know whats going on.:(

Mine still just spotty. Well I tried to look for any info last night and today. Can't find anything about it. I'm sure its nothing, I just wanted to know what would cause this particular difference. I'll probably never know. Sailorsgirl, you seemed really worried, if your quite concerned maybe you should phone your doctor and see what he says.

yup that was how mine was. stretchy-ish, mostly pink but brownish every once in a while. i went to planned parenthood today, they gave me a urine test and it was negative...

but i've heard SO many stories of women with low HCG levels so they get negative urine tests for a while and planned parenthood wouldn't do a blood test on me without a recomendation from a doctor! rarrrrr...

So do you think that having a period of such consistancy is maybe linked to possible pregnancy? That most of what I was curious about.....

Thanks for the response Angela....thats what I was wondering. I never had it before though, and just seemed weird for me. This AF seems to be pretty much over though, and it was only 1 1/2 days. I think there was more of the ewcm than there was blood mixed in it....
