confused

Well this is getting harder and harder. AF is just doing its own thing now. Last month I had spotting on day 23 n then AF came with full force on day 25. This month I am more confused than ever!! DH and I had sex on about day 15(Friday) n when I went to the toilet afterwards I had the tiniest little blood clot on the tissue paper. So tiny I thought it was a red thread but sadly it wasn't. That scared me a bit cos I've never had that mid cycle. The next day (Saturday) I had spotting and dull cramps. On Sunday they got a bit worse. Not really bad just constantly there n it went to my lower back too. I put heat packs on it that helped it a bit. So now I don't know what is happening. I was still spotting Monday. It lessened a bit and by about day 20 it all disappeared except I’ve been extremely cranky and have really bad mood swings as well as a bit of constipation.
I'm on about day 25 of my cycle which means AF could come any time now. It's a bit unpredictable but generally from day 26 to day 29 it could be here. I've already taken two pregnancy tests, both negative. Jumping the gun a bit I know but it’s just too hard to wait. Did anyone have something similar, i.e. the cramps and spotting?

Hailes, I generally get some spotting mid cycle which is normallly around the time I ovulate, its never bright red blood, generally pink tinged CM or stringy red bits in my CM. Generally I suffer some abdominal pains too.

It may have been ovulation given the timing of it.

Thanks for the suggestion. I thought it might be too, it was actually a brown colour. I just thought it might be a bit late for ovulation considering my cycle is generally pretty short.
