Chemical pregnancy advice, 17dpo, no bleeding

Hi, I started getting faint positive pregnancy tests at 9dpo. At 14dpo they were still very faint and I got a positive 1-2weeks on clear blue digital. Lines have stayed very faint and today (17 dpo) are barely visible. I’m therefore fairly sure I’m having a chemical pregnancy. I would love some advice on what to expect next? I’ve had no bleeding but not sure when to expect it?

I've only had one chemical but my line disappeared and then 2 days later I bled and that lasted a couple of weeks. Then I didn't have a period for 3 months!! Having talked to other women online I think that the length of time without a period is unusual

I'm pregnant now and my tests were very faint lines for ages. How long since your period was due?

The lines were faint on mine for over a week after mine was due yet here I am almost 15 weeks pregnant

@RedRobyn2021 thanks so much for responding. My period was due on Monday so I’m 4 days late now. The line today was just so faint I can’t see a happy outcome unfortunately. So pleased to hear you’re now pregnant and it’s going well, sounds like you had a really rough time.

I feel like I’m in an awful limbo, I wish someone could tell me one way or the other!!

I am so sorry that you are having a CP! I had a CP at the beginning the last month and this is also the reason why I have been posting threads about CP here because I didn't know what to expect.
I have seen quite a lot of people posting here asking what to do when they had a CP. CP is so common and very annoying. I talked to some of them when it happened then I found out one of them actually got a BFP very soon. They had a CP after me then got a BFP before me. So, some people recover and conceive really fast. However some don't.
In my case, after I got a BFP on 10 dpo and the line started to faint from 15 dpo. On 18 dpo I started to bleed for 3 days heavily, 1 day of nothing and 3 days of light spotting.
I also ovulated late on C22 because my LH kept fluctuating. I started to try again but didn't get a BFP.
Today is CD19 of the second cycle and I expect to ovulate on CD21-22 based on my OvuSense and Mira charts.
You will feel blah some days and excited and positive for other days however don't feel disheartened if you don't get a BFP immediately.

That is reassuring to hear! Which cycle did you get a BFP after your CP? Which dpo did you get the faint line? How many days did the line stay faint? Which dpo did it get darker? I am sorry for asking so many questions! This is my second cycle after CP so I don't know what to expect. Currently I am expecting to ovulate in 3 days.

@LucyCL thanks so much for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate it! I feel very nervous about the bleeding. I had a big postpartum bleed after having my little boy which ended up in me being hospitalised so I’m feeling nervous.

Fingers crossed for this cycle for you 🤞🏼
