Loosing the plot TTC. MMC. Chemical? HELP ME

Confusedhun · 18/12/2024 17:09

Please help me ! I’ll try to keep this short to follow. 16th Nov MMC bleeding for 2 weeks ended around 1st December. DTD 3rd December (couldn’t wait :( )started spotting light pink on Monday 16/12 and Tuesday 17/12. Tested on Monday clear blue test with faint line. Tested on Tuesday normal pregnancy test with faint line and a digital clear blue which said positive. this morning I woke up to red blood spotting. Did 2 cheap pregnancy tests both positive faint lines . Did a clear blue digital at 17:05 today and it says pregnant. WHAT IS GOING ON !!! IM LOOSING MY MIND. The bleeding today has been more so after I go for a pee and maybe a few times randomly but not enough to soak a pad. I have 0 symptoms I normally get with period no sore boobs. Have mood swings but it’s normal because I’m so hormonal right now. What do I do??? I can’t keep buying tests and in my mind is saying I’m not pregnant but my my heart really wants it. Anyone have any advice or similar experience. Should I stop testing ?? Is this a Chemical pregnancy??
I’ve attached todays test :((

Hi, sorry to hear you’re going through this! I was getting faint positive on normal tests and pregnant on digital tests so my doctor arranged a blood test for me to check if I was pregnant, unfortunately this confirmed low levels and I then miscarried. I found the blood really reassuring about what was happening as it will tell you exact HCG levels

Thank you x I might just wait because I’ll be even more devastated to go through with the blood tests to find out I’m not. I don’t even know what to tell DH the MC was so traumatic don’t want to bring his hopes up to then not be pregnant :( x

I had a mmc and then a chemical the month after too!
How long did it take for your pregnancy test to go negative after the mmc? mine took ages to leave my body and then seemed to completely mess up my cycles.

3 weeks later I took a sensitive hcg test which came out negative I should’ve done the normal one tbh but that was 1 week after I DTD so 3 weeks in total from MMC. Sorry about your mmc, how long did it take for your period to come after and was the chemical bleeding small to begin with or was filling pads like a period. Sorry if I’m being too nosey you don’t have to answer if you don’t want x

No I don’t mind at all! I got my period pretty much a month after the mmc tablets, that’s when my test when completely negative too. The chemical was just like a normal period just started slightly later, I had a couple of very faint lines for a few days that didn’t progress and then started bleeding xx

I'm sorry for your loss ♥️ it might be worth calling your local EPU for advice. I had a MMC in April and got a faint positive on 18th June, but started spotting a couple of days later. I was convinced it was a chemical but the spotting stayed light and my test lines got darker each day. EPU agreed to scan me at 6 weeks which showed all was okay (I'm now 30 weeks). It might be trickier for them to date you since you didn't wait one cycle, but they might be happy to see you and either do hcg bloods or an early scan. Good luck xx
