Bleeding after home BFP

Yesterday I was over the moon today is a very dark place . IF seems to do that. I was able to get my bloodwork done today instead of waiting till tomorrow after having several home positives. I go to a satellite office for that stuff. While in the waiting room, going to give TMI here, I started feeling period cramps went to the bathroom and began some heavy watery red bleeding. I then saw the nurse to draw my blood and she told me to go home, not back to work, lay down and get some rest. I went back to the bathroom where the bleeding became more heavier and even started to cover the linear I wear for the progesterone inserts. I even had quite a bit of blood in the toilet. I left there and called my RE office and the nurse told me to wait and see what the beta comes back at and agreed that I needed to go home and rest. Since being home the blood has changed from a watery red to more orange/brown and slowed way down and now only spotting. The heavy bleeding lasted about 40 minutes. It has been about 2 hours of just spotting. I am convinced it is a chemical pregnancy and also realize that I won't really know much until I go back Wednesday for another beta to see the changes in numbers. I am curious since they put two 5day blasts back if there is a chance one worked and one didn't hence the bleeding. I am at this point, lost all hope. Not sure who has advice for me but wanted to share here and will take any info and suggestions offered. The Internet is dangerous, read about chemical pregnancy and that is what I have but just read about bleeding after a positive and there seems to be more reasons. Hope to get today's results in the next few hours. Thanks for reading!

Update: My nurse just called to tell me the lab just picked up my test! Are you kidding me! It is 4:45. Now I probably won't get my results till tomorrow. I bet they expect me to just relax and try not to think about it tonight too! Ugh!!!!!

I wouldn't lose hope yet. Lots of ladies have early bleeding episodes and go on to have viable pregnancies ... that's my impression from these boards, at least. See what the betas say. Good luck.
Me: 39. DH: 41. TTC since 2009.
FSH: 9.5 at highest. AMH (11/2011): 0.9. AFC: 10ish. HSG: Normal. SA: Normal.
July 2011 - Feb. 2012: 2 Clomid/TI cycles; 3 injectables/IUI cycles. Good response but BFNs.
Dec. 2011: Laparoscopy (clear) + hysteroscopy to remove uterine polyp.

April 2012: IVF #1: FSH 9.2, AFC 7-8. Antagonist protocol.
Started stims (300iu Gonal-F, 150iu Menopur) 3/28.
Added ganirelix 4/1. Trigger 4/5 (7 follies). ER 4/7: 7R, 0M, 0F. :-(

Nov. 2012: IVF #2: Long Lupron protocol.
Started Lupron 10/27. AFC 10+. Started stims (300iu Follistim, 150iu Menopur) 11/8.
Trigger 11/18 (7 follies). ER 11/20: 9R, 1M, 1F. 3dt of my one 6-cell embie on 11/23: BFN.

Dec. 2012: Hail Mary IUI cycle with leftover IVF meds: BFN.

Feb. 2013: IVF #3: Estrogen priming protocol.
Pre-AF: estro patch + ganirelix. AFC 8-10. Started stims (450 Follistim, 150 Menopur) 1/28.
Added ganirelix 2/4. Combined Lupron/HCG trigger 2/10 (6-ish follies).
ET 2/12: 6R, 1M, 1F w/rescue ICSI. My embie didn't make it. :-(

I wish you weren't dealing with this.

I know quite a few women who were convinced they weren't pregnant because of bleeding and it turned out to be implantation bleeding. I hope this is the case for you. Let us know how the lab work comes back, very very annoying they waited to run it
