I have 2 children and have had quite a few losses.

I have bang on 23 day cycles. Whenever I’ve even pregnant, I’ve tested positive at 3 weeks pregnant (2 days before missed period in my case). I’ve always ovulated on day 11 or 12.

On CD16 ), I had a random bleed, pink mixed with red when wiping a couple of times when I went for a wee then nothing.

I have tested every day for the past 6 days, negative. Then tonight, bam faint positive. The type of faint I get at 3 weeks pregnant.

I’ve had some lower back pain and pinching pain on my right side that feels as far over as my hip! So far, it’s nothing like any of my other pregnancies.

Could this be ectopic? Could I have, for the first time ovulated a lot later? Could this be a chemical?

Help! My head is fried. Any experiences with this? Thanks! Posting for traffic!

No experience but would have thought if its ectopic then it would be more of a pain then a pinch feeling. I could be wrong and I'm sure someone here will know
