Looking for some advice, but not for false hope - please be honest, don't tell me what I want to hear! I got a BFP on Weds afternoon - fairly clear line on a FRER. I then took another one and a ClearBlue digi, which both also came up positive (ClearBlue said 1-2 weeks). I had very sore breasts: they felt swollen, tingly and tender to the touch. I took another test yesterday, but with quite dilute second morning urine - it was quite faint, but I thought that would be because of the diluteness (and was cross at myself for taking a test with such a duff sample). Nonetheless, I thought I'd reassure myself with another one today (which is the day AF is due). But this morning when I woke up my breast tenderness is totally gone - they feel normal and soft again. When I took a test it was positive, but if anything lighter than two days ago - definitely no darker. Is this a chemical pregnancy? Again, be honest. At the moment I feel ok about the prospect of a chemical: obviously it's not great, but this is the first sign I've ever had that I can get pregnant at all, so it's actually made me feel a bit less hopeless. I'm worried, though, that as time goes on I'll get more excited and more upset if bleeding starts (which, if this is a chemical, is inevitable). So I really want someone to be brutal with me - should I be preparing for the worst, here?
The pic is all the tests (except the digi, which has now gone blank) in order from Weds to today, top to bottom. The picture isn't great - they're all quite a lot darker than that (all are definite positives, not squinters) in real life, but the relative darkness is correct, if that makes sense?
