hi
my body is doing my head in,can anyone help me figure out whats going on!

i had 3 bfp last week (bank hol mon/tues) 1 own brand (faint line) in morn, cbdigi in eve(no drink for more than 3 hrs) said 1 -2 weeks and then cbdigi tue morn which also said 1 - 2 weeks.
last period started 11th aug lasted 1 week. had some spotting 3 days after which lasted for 4 days (dark brown). dtd imbetween period and spotting.
di another test mon just gone and it was bfn!
symptoms have just been weeing like mad and lots of headaches which are both not normal for me.
this week my boobs are not really sore but more tingly like when breasfteeding. have just started spotting again but dark brown not bright red.

not really sure that the bfp 1 - 2 weeks really tie up with my last period so not sure if they were accurate(2 of them were done with fmu)
could the bfn be wrong or could i be having a very early miscarriage? am not having any real pain though.
Am a bit scared to poas as it might be bfn again.

They say false positives don't exist but having had 2 early miscarriages myself both tested using clear blue digital I had a positive 1-2 weeks, soon after AF reared it's ugly head, only way to be sure is to request 2 blood tests 48hour apart, sorry to hear your stuck and confused. I'm here if you need a chat. good luck. X

Also sorry, with my second MC I was bleeding in and off for 4weeks, had to have cans and nothing was seen but also following blood tests my hormones where up and down for a week or two, I hope you get good news! X

well am now bleeding like a normal period and had a bfn this morning, no more pain or blood loss than id normally have. more or less exactly the same as the period i had in aug. no idea if i have had/having a mc as its no different to normal period. maybe i did just get unlucky and have a bad batch of tests. all 3 were from diff packs though!
am still showing 'signs' though, weeing waaay more than normal and my hair is falling out loads more when i wash it and boobs still sore/tingly.
how long will these 'signs' last then if im not pregnant and what else could it be?

sounds like a chemical pg, sorry. It's like an early mc where the egg doesn't implant properly but you do start producing HCG, so you will get a positive. Then the womb lining starts to shed and you start bleeding, then your HCG levels fall and you'll get a negative test. You don't really get false positives, let alone 3.

Hope you have better luck next time.

I've had off false positives but never three together - it would be one off BFP followed by BFN. I would agree its likely to be a very early MC or a chemical pregancy. I'm really sorry. I hope you get your BFP.
