Question

Chemical pregnancy? Pregnant or not?

Had a faint positive 9 days ago. (Cd40) then af hit. Late and in full force. Cramps and all symptoms. Doctor said chemical pregnancy (had an appointment for something else and asked about it) been feeling really off the last few days. Have had some spotting when I wipe (brownish) and feel not right. Emotional, blah, tired. Test today and had 3 dark positives and a positive opk.
Can I be pregnant or it it from the chemical pregnancy?

How dark is dark? It sounds like that may not have been a chemical but a breakthrough bleed. BB happens around the time af would arrive and can be equally as heavy, except it isn't a complete shedding of the lining, so the baby sticks around. A SCH (subchorionic hematoma/hemmorhage) will also cause a heavy bleed, sometimes heavier than af, and baby sticks around. I would take a few more tests over the next few days then make an appt with ur Dr to have some blood work done. A chemical generally yields neg hpts within a few days of af/bleeding.
Good luck! =))

Thank you. Mine positives have been very dark. Like as dark or darker than the control lines. I'll test again tomorrow and call me doctor.

I had a vvfp then a couple days later negative with a different brand. AF started 5 days late (which is odd for me) heavy and cramping on my sides the first day, then light for a couple more days. Now when i wipe i have brown on the toilet paper. havent tested again since i bled. Let me know what happens with you!
