Am I having a chemical pregnancy?

So I had a BFP on internet cheapie on Tuesday night. Retested yesterday morning FMU with clear blue early detection and faint line, all looking good. Very very faint line on internet cheapie tho.
Today I’ve retested with FMU and same tests and the line is really faint. Internet cheapies I can’t even see a line on at all.
I’ve got no bleeding, but this all doesn’t look good does it?

Pic is today and yesterday’s clearblue

if there’s a line there’s a baby. unless it’s a false line. Hmm

So @JustVent it's cruel for me to say I THINK it will be good news because of MY similar experience.

But it's perfectly fine for others to tell her she is going through chemical pregnancy or early miscarriage without knowing either? Even though you don't want people to throw those terms around lightly?

Make your mind up dear

Listen. Poster came for advice. I'm not arguing or debating on a thread like this

Goodbye.

As pp have said, only time will tell. With my first pregnancy, a faint line was much stronger 5 days later and produced a baby. Next time around, my BFP at 4 weeks turned into a BFN at 5 weeks (came home from seeing friends, thought I'd do another test for the enjoyment of seeing the line and was shocked and upset when it didn't appear) and then bleeding some days later. You will have to wait it out but wishing you all the best.

@pingu30 thanks for the hope yesterday I really appreciate it and it helped me pull myself together and get through my shift in work. I’m not stupid and I know you weren’t saying because it was a good outcome for you then that’s what will happen for me.

And thanks everyone else for your kind messages. Sorry I couldn’t get back to reply yesterday, but I did read them all.

Unfortunately, this morning I’ve done another clearblue and there’s no line at all or on internet cheapie.

I’ve had a little cry but now I’m just going to wait for af. Just wanted to update the thread and in case anyone in a similar position is looking in the future (I know I spent ages googling this yesterday)

Thanks guys

Sorry to hear this and best of luck to you next month. Thank you for the update as I think I may be in a similar situation and find the pictures etc v helpful.

Your time will come. Big hugs x

Similar happened to me this week on exactly the same time frame as you (af due Monday.) I'd read enough about the risk of testing early that I didn't get too invested in the two faint bfps I had but it's still a kick in the teeth. Fingers crossed for next month I guess!

Pingu30 · 19/01/2018 12:25

I'm really sorry you haven't got the outcome you hoped for :(
