I'm scared, please help!!!

So I don't have a confirmed BFP, but I'm 98% sure that I am pg. Like an IDIOT, I thought it would be ok if I mowed the lawn today. Well, I had a hard time starting the thing (yanking the chain thing or whatever it is) and then I started cramping. Not really badly, but enough for me to notice and worry. It pretty much went away after I stopped, but then I went to the bathroom and started spotting a little. Just some pinkish CM. Did I just basically kill my baby? I can't believe I was so stupid!! I didn't think it would hurt anything to mow the grass. I'm so upset I want to start crying!!! PLEASE someone tell me everything is going to be ok!!!!!!!!!!

If you are really worried, I think you should have your Dr. paged and talk to her. Most Drs offices have a message service and will page your Dr in cases like this. I did this once when I was pg with my last one and threw my back out on the weekend. I needed to know asap what pain medications I could take. My Dr has always said, when in doubt, page me. Don't worry, they are getting paid a lot of money to be on call!

I just called the ER and she wouldn't tell me anything "over the phone." She told me to do the same thing that you just did. But since they haven't even seen me about BEING pg, I guess I just feel like they wouldn't care, since its so early. I guess there's nothing I could do about m/c anyway, I guess I was hoping someone would say, "No way, you're fine." Or "Unless you have lots of bleeding or lots more cramping, then you're fine." I know that no one can say that, since its probably not true. I guess there's nothing that I can do other than hope that everything is fine.
Would you guys be worried at all if this happened to you? Am I overreacting?

Hope to hear your feeling better soon.
You really should take a pregnancy test just to confirm your feelings. This may just be AF rearing her ugly head.
Good Luck and take things easy from this point forward.

I feel better now (but of course my mind is trying to mess with me) I had a whole list of stuff to do tonight while my husband had duty, but I think I'm going to skip most of it and just watch TV. I was just so scared because it was something that I had done to myself (so I knew exactly where to place the blame!) and this is our only chance TTC for at least a year if not longer. Anyway, I'm sorry I freaked out, I never thought *I'd* be like that. I thought I'd always be calm and never obsess and worry like this.
One of you said that you spotted after exercising, so I guess that eases my mind, that it can happen and be ok.
Thanks again ladies!!

It wasn't just mowing the lawn, I'm not that much of a lightweight! ;) It was yanking that darn chain over and over again. It just scared me to have the cramping RIGHT afterwards. I know that cramping and spotting is normally fine, but it worried me because it was just after doing all that.
I'm going to try to wait a few days to use an HPT... but I've tested with an OPK (they're more sensitive) and got a positive. Plus, I just FEEL pregnant. I know that is mostly discounted by a lot of people, but I know my body pretty well. :)
Thanks for the thoughts.
