Possible Chemical pregnancy

Hi all, I’m new here and in need of some advice please ☺️ Bit of background Im 38, have irregular periods, have had 3 miscarriages and one rainbow son who is now 5. Been trying for 4 years.
Anyway I experienced what I thought was implantation spotting pink/brown, some strange snotty discharge and started having pregnancy symptoms sore breasts, headache, bloating, nausea, lots if discharge and on and off cramping but nothing bad. Then on Tuesday got my BFP (attached test) was over the moon but then the next day and ever since they have all been negative (used a selection of brands). Did I have a dodgy test or have I suffer a chemical pregnancy, I’ve never had one before so would appreciate anyone’s advice? Still feeling pregnant and still not bleeding, due to irregular periods not a hundred percent sure but Flo app is saying 4 days overdue? Any help or advice would be amazing, thanks for reading and sending baby dust to you all ✨ xx

Hi op, is that test inverted. The control looks very black and the test line grey. Possible evap maybe?

@Ella31 Hiya, thanks for your reply appreciate it. No not inverted and within 5 mins but I’m now starting to think maybe an evap 😩 though still no AF so holding on to that 🤞🏻🙏🏻 xx

Anything can happen, last month I had my full blown period, came the day it was due and then a positive preg test 3 days after. It was a chemical but it was so strange. Don't lose hope. But I'd put away the tests for at least 2 days.

Forgot to add, did you test on a frer, if the sticks are positive, your frer definitely will be.

@Ella31 firstly congratulations that’s amazing and fills me with hope.
No I haven’t yet, I’ll try holding off for a couple of days if AF doesn’t show 🤞🏻🙏🏻 though want it to show asap if I’m not so i can get trying again. Sending you baby dust ✨ xx

When I had my chemical it was so faint that the camera wouldn't pick it up. See below. All the ones marked positive I could see in real life but pictures looks negative except for one. It was positive then negative then positive then negative. I was so anxious cause by that point I already had two MCs, so the thought of another just deflated me.
I think for you, that might be an evap line due to it looking kind of grey.

@VixFromThe6ix thank you for replying and so sorry to hear of your losses, it’s heartbreaking and such an emotional rollercoaster. Hope you have or get your rainbow 🌈 baby soon.

Yes I’m suspecting maybe an indent now, just wonder where AF 🤷🏼‍♀️ but then I do have irregular periods xx
