Chemical pregnancy

Hi, on 9.11.22 my period was 4 days late I took a pregnancy test which come out positive I took several more which were also positive including digital which said 1-2 weeks. I had some spotting which I experienced in my other pregnancies so I wasn't overly concerned. Skip to Friday 11.11.22 in the evening I started to bleed and lost some clots I assumed this was a chemical pregnancy from everything I've read. How long did it take you to test negative after a chemical pregnancy? I'm now 9 days since the bleed and I'm still testing positive they're not getting darker but also not getting lighter either. TIA

Oh I’m so sorry to hear that. I had a MC at the start of December so I feel your pain. I got AF yesterday but had a positive test today so I’m just confused 😂

Sorry for your loss! I would say maybe test again and if it's positive could just be pregnant with bleeding or chemical. I did have bleeding in both my children's pregnancy so I was overly concerned at first but when the clots started I knew it wasn't normal. I was too early for a scan so was literally testing every day! The sad part I was so relieved seeing the negative so we could start trying again

I’m leaning more towards chemical because I think the bleeding was too heavy for implantation.. worse case scenario ectopic.. I had gone for my 12 week scan when I found out I had an MC, baby was only measuring 8+5. I could have went for the pill option but decided to get the op to get it over and done with

Bless you! It's so hard isn't it. I wish you the best on your journey! Hopefully we'll have 2023/24 babies (if your trying that is lol)
