Chemical pregnancy's

[BHillary]

I had a chemical pregnancy last month and now I've got a bfp again that's so faint. I'm cramping and am super paranoid of it happening again.
Wish I'd held off testing I have no will power.

Anybody else?

Hi BHillary,
Sorry to hear about the chemical pregnancy you had. I had a chem pregnancy when trying to conceive our DD1. I had that faint BFP, looked at it all day and even told a couple of the older ladies at work. But the. Next day did another test to see a darker line and there was no line at all.. started bleeding the following day and it was so heavy! I cried for ages 😞 I didn’t fall pregnant again for 6 months and was so scared that I did tests everyday for nearly a week! Had a healthy baby second time round.
Maybe leave it a couple of days before re-testing. The hormone levels double every other day. I think this early tests make it so hard on those TTC.
Sending you lots of hugs and fingers crossed everything will be ok for you. Xx

Hi :-) I had a mc at 12 weeks (knew something was wrong from 8 weeks as baby very small). Then after that I had a chemical. Immediately after that I had no period and fell pregnant again. I had some cramping but no bleeding. I think some cramping is normal tbh which sounds odd but as long as it doesn't become like period cramps and no blood then try not to stress :-) I am aware that is completely almost impossible to do! I'm now in the second trimester and still stressing!

Sending you lots of luck :-) xxxx

Thanks for your replies ladies. I'm so anxious. I have 3 children already and can't recall panicking like this xx

Hi BHillary,

Just thought I’d see how you are? Any news? Xx

It wasn't meant to be I'm afraid, I've just for a bfp this morning though! Again I'm super anxious xx

@BHillary

Congrats for your BFP today!

Can someone explain what a chemical pregnancy is? Sorry to sound naive, i had a mc last year and have got a bfp this week (first on monday, and have tested several times since)

I'm obviously worried about having another mc, but also wondered what a chemical pregnancy was and how you know?
