Chemical maybe

[Lunawolf]

After 14 months of trying I finally got a BFP yesterday. I stupidly got carried away thinking about gender, what the baby will look like etc. I felt wonderful after all those months of upset. I even laughed as we have our first appointment on Friday at the fertility clinic.

Then at lunch time today the awful cramps started, now full on bleed.

I'm so so gutted. I have no idea if this has been a chemical pregnancy or whether the test was wrong?!

Is it strange to feel loss when it might not have even existed?

Sorry for the doom and gloom post - no one knows we are trying so limited support with this! DH is amazing but has the attitude "what will be will be", which is great, but not what I want to hear right now.

So sorry to hear this. False positives are rare. I'm sure if you test again now it'll still be faintly positive as the hormone will take a while to leave your system. So it was a real thing, don't feel silly. However early, you're still bound to feel grief for what could have been. Take care of yourself and good luck with your fertility app next week. x

I had a chemical pregnancy last month. It was awful. I really struggled. It was my own fault for testing early. Just couldn't help myself. It wasn't a strong BFP, quite faint so tested numerous times. Always the same. Then AF came and I was devastated.
This month I'm 10dpo and just tested CB digital and BFN even though I have symptoms! :-( this month I promised myself I wouldn't test early. Couldn't help myself.....
I know it's hard there's not much I can say at this stage to make it any easier. Just remember if it is a chemical pregnancy there is always next month. Good luck! x

Elcarmen, sorry you went through this. Everything crossed for you!

Thanks everyone so much for your kind words xxx
