Spotting and HPT timing....

Hi,

I just have a quick question...mostly just to get the experiences of other women because I do not have any resources to go by except for my textbooks!!

Here are my stats:
LMP: 8/16
28 Day cycle (very regular)
Unprotected sex: 8/28
Ovulation pain: 8/29
Expected next period: 9/13

This afternoon I had cramps and felt like I was going to start my period. When I went to the bathroom, there was brown mucous on the toilet paper like I was going to start, but then it went away after a couple of hours. I am not supposed to get my period for another 3 days...I know that this is a sign of pregnancy, so I guess that my question is, do you think that if I take a First Response Early Result test on Wednesday morning that I will have pretty accurate results? I have my annual OB/GYN appt on Thursday morning, but I want to have a better grasp on what is going on before I go...ahhh I'm so nervous...help!!

I have been purposefully ignoring things going on with my body because I didn't want to get myself hyped up. Although right after I started cramping and spotting (but before I knew that I was spotting, hadn't been to the bathroon yet), I had a huge surge of nausea in the middle of my class, like i had to swallow a lot and put my head up to not throw up...ugh. please talk me down!!

Thanks in advance, I REALLY appreciate it!

Thanks...I figured that would be the ok thing to do, so I went and bought a test today (FRER). I had some more brown spotting today, just like yesterday but only a little bit more. Weird. I guess we'll see what the morning brings!
