Chemical pregnancies

Hi Everyone, I've been going back and forth whether to post but I really need some advice please.

I have had 5 chemical pregnancies in a row now. To say I'm devastated is an understatement as this time I had a CB digital test say 1-2weeks and LOTS of other tests say positive with the progression of a dark line over the period of a week. I was absolutely winded when I saw blood on the day I would have been 5weeks. I was 4days late for my period so thought this was it this time 😢

I've now lost all trust in tests and know I need to stop testing early (I have always tested a day or so before period is due). I am going to stop testing altogether. I just feel like there's something wrong with me. I already have a 3yr old and I just can't get my head around why this is happening. I know all pregnancies are diff but I'm really struggling if I'm honest. It's hard to accept that I could potentially never get (successfully) pregnant again.

Anyway, wondering if there's anyone else in the same boat?? Have you had digital tests show pregnant and then bleed over a week later? Have you gone on to finally have a successful pregnancy? I've read lots on having a emergency C section can sometimes cause fertility issues too, any views on this?

Thanks for getting to the end if you managed to read all of that. Just need some comfort 🥺

I'm sorry for your losses - this isn't happening because you're testing early ❤️ you're eligible for recurrent miscarriage tests, so I'd see your GP for a referral. There are a number of tests they can do including your thyroid, vitamin D, clotting issues. Best wishes x

Thank you so much for your message, I naturally keep blaming myself so this has helped massively 💕. I am waiting for some tests to be done so hoping in the next few weeks I can get some answers! xx
