bleeding
so I just found out i'm pregnant as of yesterday, but a week ago I was bleeding as if I had a regular period. AF was due today, so I figured it was implantation bleeding, but it was heavy enough that I was wearing tampons for 3 days. I also had the flu all week, and I was taking alot of meds for it. Should I be worried?
Also, what do I do know that I know I'm pregnant? Should I call my doctor tomorrow morning?

Congrats! Implantation bleeding isn't typically heavy enough to have to wear a tampon, especially for 3 days.
I would call your dr first thing tomorrow morning. She/he can do blood work to check your hcg level and progesterone. Then repeat it in two days to make sure it's rising correctly.

Okay I will do that- hopefully they'll take me sometime this week, because I heard most doctors make you wait until you're 8 weeks

For your first appt, yes. They won't see you until at least 8 weeks. But they absolutely can write a prescription for you to go to a lab or even in the office just for the bloodwork. Tell them your concerns and you want a beta and progesterone check, that you've been bleeding. And a repeat beta two days later. If progesterone is low, which could cause the bleeding, they can supplement you now.

Tell them you were bleeding pretty heavily and are concerned and they will most likely have you come in sooner than the typical 8 weeks.
Good luck!
