Weird Cup question.. TMI.

I COULD be just losing my mind, but I thought I'd run this past you all and see if you have any advice for me.  Last month was my first month with my Mooncup(US) And I did love it, although it took a little, ok a lot, of trial and error.  My last day of my period, I couldn't pee with the cup in though.. It was strange. I thought maybe I'd gotten something important "folded up" When I put the cup in, so I'd take it out and immediately I could pee. I Know TMI right?  Anyway this month Same thing the first couple of times, I'd have an insane urge to pee, but couldn't, took the cup out and I could go.  So I made extra effort to get it up in there good and High, and it seemed to be ok, but I woke up this morning around 5, took it out & CLeaned it, put it back in and when I woke up at 8 I had been leaking. Took the cup out and it was full! It looked like pee, which I could be wrong of course, but how in just under 3 hours did the cup get full of a non-blood substance?   I know it was in there good enough, it was more than comfortable, but that was so strange!  This happened yesterday morning too, I'd woken up w/ spotting and it was 1/2 full of blood and 1/2 of the clearer liquid.. Any ideas what this could be?  Could it be urine? Or am I losing my marbles?
