Is this a chemical pregnancy?

Hi all
Back in April I had a chemical miscarriage. Bled very heavily but continued to have positive tests for up to 2 weeks afterwards. ( I checked to see if the lines were fading and they were) I found out last week I was expecting again. Had very strong positive tests and felt confident things would go ok this time. Today I've had cramps, a minor amount of spotting and the tests I've taken have come back negative. Can hcg really deplete so quickly? I feel like it's the end of the road. It's just so strange to go to completely negative so quickly Sad

Hi there, I had a chemical pregnancy last month my tests did fade but I was testing every day. Have you left a week in between testing positive and negative ? I also had a chemical pregnancy before my son and the same thing happened.

I am such a worrier after the last time, I test every day to see if the lines get stronger or fade. Yesterday they were very much there but today, nothing Sad

Hmm I wouldn't think they would go from strong to negative in 24 hours 🤔 have you tried a different brand ?

confused233 · 18/06/2020 17:11

I've used the same brand every day. I don't know what to think or what to do. I guess I'll wait a few days and wait for bleeding and if not I'll test again

Yeah. My cycle after my chemical last month has been very strange I ovd really late. With both my chemical pregnancies mines never went negative until I bled maybe it's dodgy test 🤔

I had a similar thing happen to me. I had an early MC the beginning of this month, and my tests were very faint one day and then completely negative the next.
I stopped completely bleeding on 12th June and weirdly today I have EWCM? I surely can’t be ovulating this early after can I?
Me and my OH have decided to try again in 6 months but if I am, I’m pretty shocked

It took me a whole new cycle to conceive again, I think my body had to recover. Unfortunately it wasn't meant to be again Sad I really hope you conceive soon, I'm considering giving up. I don't know how much more loss/upset/confusion I can take x

Aw no 😔 I know it's really upsetting how long have you been trying ? X

Since Christmas. No signs of pregnancy until April, which ended in a miscarriage. Had a positive last week and now it's negative so the same thing is happening again. I feel to blame somehow. It's just unfair
