I had positive tests on Thursday and Friday last week then started period like bleeding with cramps on Friday. Still bleeding now.
Booked for bloods tomorrow.
I thought it was a chemical pregnancy but I'm terrified it may be ectopic, I did a test yesterday and thismorning and there is still a line there albeit it hasn't got any darker, but it's not got any lighter either. If it was a chemical would you still be getting a faint line come up whilst bleeding?
I'm desperate to know of any other experiences please as I'm quite worried.
Thank you

Sorry you're experiencing this. It can take a while for hormones to settle back down after a pregnancy loss, and a morning test is also when your hormones will be stronger too. Ectopic usually comes with a lot of pain. Then again, some people do bleed throughout pregnancy (I wasn't one unfortunately, as much as I willed it). My last miscarriage was only around the 6w mark yet it took more than 6w for a negative test to come up, one before that took just a couple of weeks to get back to negative and I was 9w at the time. Every experience is different! Stick your feet up, do something you enjoy or watch some feel good films today to take your mind off it and see what tomorrow brings.
