8dpo strange mix of symptoms - thoughts please?!

Firstly, a TMI warning with this post - sorry! But I've had a weird mix of symptoms the last few days and I would love to know what you think. I know I should just wait another week and test again but you know how it is!

So today I'm 8dpo I think, I'm fairly sure I O'd last Monday 27th based on CM and OPK but obviously this could be a day or so out. We BD'd on Tuesday 28th night, and that is the only time in the last 2 weeks because of illness and moving house, so if I conceived it would have been then.

Friday 1st (4dpo) I got really bad AF like cramping so bad I had to go to bed, still there with bad bloating all day Saturday (5dpo).

Then I got thrush (sorry, I did say TMI!), which started Saturday and was here properly Sunday (6dpo). I've had thrush once in my life before, I basically never get it.

Having read that the hormone imbalance caused by pregnancy could be a reason for thrush, I did a HPT on Monday (7dpo) - I know, way too early! BUT - I got a BFP almost straight away. Faint, but it was definitely there. I have never had a BFP before, not even a semblance of one, so I know I wasn't imagining it. But then, having seen the BFP, ten minutes later it had completely disappeared?

So this morning (8dpo) I decided I would do another one (again I know it's too early but given yesterday's BFP to BFN weirdness I had to check) - BFN, definitely. No hint of anything. So I thought OK, well I'll just have to leave it until the weekend and re-test at a proper time.

But then this afternoon at work I go to the loo and find I've been bleeding (it was in my knickers, a fair bit, but nothing really there when I wiped). I'm 8dpo and AF is not due until next Weds - as I am fairly sure when I O'd, and I usually have a 33 day cycle I'm fairly sure it's not AF. I've had no cramps or anything since the weekend.

What is going on?! What are your thoughts ladies? x
