Likely a chemical?..

Hey all

A little background - I suffered with a blighted ovum end of June.. Had a scan etc everything had passed - about 2 weeks after that I was having negative tests which I was happy with as I knew AF would eventually come & I could see where I was at.. We were told by the nurses at the epu that we could start trying when ready so that was pretty quick
On Sunday I still had had af, so me being me (avid test taker.. I took one)
It was positive..Took another monday.. Darker positive - but I then started to bleed which has now progressed into a significantly heavy period pretty much - clots etc..
Does this sound like a chemical? I'm being realistic in thinking I've maybe gone too quick with trying & my body has just rejected it.. This whole process is just heartbreaking & exhausting. So I've now decided if that's what it is, I'm having a break from TTC.. I don't think I can mentally cope with anymore loses 😞
Thanks x

Oh honey, I am so, so sorry! I really feel your pain, I’ve recently been through the same (blighted ovum) it’s so tough. It sounds like it could be a chemical :-(. This journey can be so hard and so exhausting. Sending all my love x

Hello love
I don't know much about chemicals but didn't want to read and run.

I had a blighted ovum my last pregnancy so I know how confusing and upsetting it can be .
hang in there as every sperm and every egg is different . Your body might need a tad more rest.

I am now 12 weeks however didn't ttc straight after my mc.
There's so much I hope I promise x

Thank you both for your replies 💖
I've absolutely tortured myself, it's been a few months of hell.. I never even knew what a blighted ovum was & everything about it was horrendous.

Congratulations on being 12 weeks! I really wish you a happy & healthy pregnancy 💖

Definitely giving my body a chance to heal, I'm just not in the right mindset to keep on going each month, I know it won't always end this way, but I'm too emotionally drained 😞💔

Update/heads totally mashed
So I've had a really heavy bleed & I mean heavy, again I've taken a test, because I wanted to see if the lines would get fainter
But here we are & it's darker... Why 😞 I'm so confused on what to do
