Another chemical?

I've had 2 chemical pregnancies in the last 2 cycles since ttc baby no2, feeling a bit fed up and not sure if it's happening again this month. I've used wondfo strips rather than easy@home which is what I'd been using before so hard to compare to previous months

What do we think? This is 9dpo-13dpo

Another chemical?

@OneGreenKoala Thankyou yeah I'm not feeling too hopeful 🤔, did you continue the aspirin for your whole pregnancy? Pleased it worked for you!

I also had four or five chemical pregnancies TTC number two and these do look like the lines I had this cycles. I really hope it’s not for you! The cycle I started taking low dose aspirin (recommended by consultant I went to for various investigations) was the one that stuck, could have been a coincidence but seemed to work for me.

@Tipperttruck interesting, could I ask what dose you took? I was actually prescribed aspirin from 12 weeks when I was pregnant with dd but can't remember why! Weirdly we had no chemicals when ttc last time but had months and months of bfn.. this time 3 months in a row bfp but not stuck

I had loads of chemicals ttc for baby 2. I took aspirin in the end which got one to 'stick'.

Thanks @Groundhogday2025 I get you and you're right, just drives you mad the not knowing doesn't it. I'm pretty sure I'm at least 13dpo as had ovulation pains on 12th Jan which I think is usually the day before I ovulate. Time will tell I guess, I'll update in the morning

The only thing that's different this month is that the line has progressed slightly. The last 2 months I've got the faintest line and it's stayed pretty much the same 🤔

Unfortunately I think you just need to give this one time. There’s definitely a faint line and it does look ever so slightly darker each day but I’d say it’s still too early. You could have ovulated later or implanted later, or it could be a chemical. Time is the only definite way to tell.
