Pregnant or not pregnant?!?!

[lauraa03f]

I am driving myself crazy, hoping you lovely ladies can offer some advice.
This is my first cycle TTC, did a clearblue digital test on Monday morning and it was positive, yay! Then I had some bleeding Monday and Tuesday, like a period but not as heavy and 2 days early. Did some googling and sounds like breakthrough bleeding (had no idea that was a thing).
Did another clearblue digital test this morning, and its negative Some more googling and now sounds like a chemical pregnancy (again - had no idea this was a thing).

I booked a doctors appointment but they told me they don't do pregnancy tests anymore, I have to self refer to whatever hospital I want to use.
So how do I know if it was a false positive, or false negative, or both are correct and it was a chemical pregnancy that wasn't meant to be?? Help!

If it was a chemical, I'm afraid I don't think you'll ever know.

Whether it was a false positive or false negative can be determined by waiting a while and testing again. When did you ovulate?

To give you hope - false positives are very rare, but false negatives are quite common in the early stages. The results depend on concentration of HcG, which can be made weaker by drinking a lot, or not using your first morning urine.

Do you have more tests? Try another using your first morning urine

If you had a positive test and then a negative, it sounds unlikely you are now pregnant. Sorry

However, if your bleeding was unlike your normal period, I suggest waiting a week, and if you have no more bleeding take one more test. If that's negative, then you can move forward.

I ovulated on 15 Aug, AF due today. I'm going to get another test today and try again Friday, if negative then can get ready for next month.
Thank you, I feel less crazy now
