heavy bleeding on 8th day after embryo transfer

Hi, I'm new to this site and I'm on my first ivf cycle. I had my embryo transfer on 17/10/12 and i've been taking the
progesterone. I'm on my 9th day now and wed evening i had spotting like brownish pink blood. then yesterday
(thusrday) morning still same then it turned to a heavy period. I spoke to my doctor and he said it should be a good sign that my period came it means that the embryo is starting implanting however he said my period came early
and its not due in 5 days. So he's not sure if it really works or not but to wait on my blood test this.coming monday.
I'm still bleeding a little bit right now but it's not heavy anymore. I'm now worried that it didn'T work coz  actually had heavy period. Also i tried home preg test and it came up as neg i know its too early but I just hate this feeling of wondering if its all good or not.
is there anyone had similar experience and still got pregnant despite having heavy period just before their blood test? also i have no symptoms of pregnancy right now except for cramps probably period pain only. Hoping someone cannhelp or give anlittle bit of advice.

Hang in there ladies.  I know how hard the 2ww is.  I never had the guts to do a hpt.  I have seen woman e sure the cycle failed,only to find out they were successful.  I will send baby dust your way, and please let us know how things turn out.

Got my result on friday and the Dr said the HCG was too low for him to confirm pregnancy and told me to go again today, Saturday had some redish brown spotting and since yesterday it has turned into period. I did my test anyway as the clinic said i should still go. Im sad and confused
