Could this be a chemical pregnancy?

Hi everyone,

feel like I’ve made so many posts recently… I had a MC with medical management nearly 4 weeks ago and am pretty sure I have since ovulated and had negative cheap strip tests following the MC.

however I felt like after ovulation I could’ve been pregnant again so I took cheap strip tests and I thought I saw something faint so I brought a FRER and to my suprise there was a decent line for what I thought would’ve been 9/10DPO. Since I have taken more and the lines don’t seem to be progressing on either the FRER or the cheap strips. So I was convinced there was leftover hcg from my MC, or I was having a chemical.

im now supposed to be 12DPO and I took a clear blue yesterday evening and this evening… the line after 5 minutes didnt seem any darker than last nights and it looked lighter in fact but I came back to it an hour after and it looks like it is actually a lot darker than yesterday’s which has also been left..

now I’m not sure if I’m having a chemical because last pregnancy had such good progression lines on FRER but my FRER’s 9-10DPO didn’t progress. I will insert photos of both below …

please help! I’ve requested a referral to the epu to see if they can do a hcg blood test but has anyone else experience a sort of stunt in HPT and then progression?

should I even consider the clear blue as progression as I left it longer than the time limit to read it?

oh god I’m stressed

Unfortunately I have had quite a few miscarriages and I’ve had the same with tests. The levels were all over the place and didn’t calm down for at least 6w. I had surgical management with mine. See if they will test bloods, if not give it a couple of weeks and test again.
