What's going on with my boobs?!

Hi
I'm so confused about what's happening. We started TTC last month, and very luckily fell pregnant first time. About 10 days after my BFP, I started bleeding and it ended up being a chemical. It affected me far more than I ever thought it would, but was ready to try again this month.
I'm now 12dpo. I ovulated a couple of days later than usual after the chemical, but otherwise felt the same as I do every cycle. I never really get PMS, or cramping even during AF.
Around 8dpo, I started getting light cramps (like I did last month), which only lasted a day or so, and my boobs started feeling swollen and are much bigger than usual.
Yesterday (11dpo), my boobs had gone back to normal in the morning and I had moderate cramps all day. Around lunchtime I had some really sharp pains, but they lasted about 10 seconds and were gone. By evening, my boobs were massive and tender again.
I did an FRER this morning, and it's a BFN.
I have no idea what's going on- is it too early to test? I got my BFP at 11dpo last month. AF is due sometime between Wednesday and Thursday. Or could the chemical last be messing up my usual AF symptoms? Just wanted a vent really, feel like I can't trust my body at all.

Your hormone levels will take a while to settle after a chemical so what you're describing sounds perfectly normal for your first cycle following it. I'm sorry you went through that x

Update - I did a test today (14dpo) and there's a line! Since 11dpo I've had no symptoms except very mild cramping so I thought AF was coming. Because of the chemical last month, I'm not letting myself get excited yet, and will test again in a few days to confirm.

Feel terrible because I was so convinced I wasn't pregnant that yesterday I had 3 glasses of wine, charcuterie and sushi to cheer myself up... Oooooops!

Is there an update? How did it go? X
