Postive... and then AF

Not sure how common this is with pregnancies.. I've been googling my brains out trying to find some sort of info.

On 12/26 I tested positive on a HPT with FMU making me about 12/13 DPO (I wasn't tracking and this was absolutely an accidental pregnancy). Then Tuesday, started my period 2 days early. I know for sure it's not implantation bleeding because there is a lot of blood and clots as well. I took another HPT 12/27 midday and it was more faint than Monday's test and I took another one this morning with FMU and it looked like yesterday's test again. I am scheduled for Tuesday January 3rd to go to the doc's but just wondering if anyone else has/is going through this?
I know my options are:
1. Chemical Pregnancy
2. Baby is still trying to implant?
3. Decidual Bleeding (kinda rare)
4. I'm just one of those people that has periods/vaginal bleeding around their period during their pregnancy.

Any help, info or stories you have would be helpful during this week long wait before the doc confirms a pos/neg result!

Thanks ladies! It's definitely something. My period is heavy but not AS heavy as it normally is. I've been taking a test every morning (bought enough to go until Tuesday morning too) and I still keep getting a super faint line on the FRER. My SIL is a nurse (and on baby #2) and she is completely baffled as well since the line isn't getting darker but it's also not going away and I'm still bleeding. It's just getting a little frustrating not knowing what's going on but hopefully I'll get some answers next week! Will keep this updated until I know. Xx

Did you find out anything? ... I just got a BFP last Wednesday. AF was due yesterday and I started spotting. Test was still positive. Not any darker than previous ones. Would love to know what you learned.

Hi BelieveTrustLove,
So I couldn't getting into the doctor until that following Tuesday..all HPT's since the Thursday before my appointment came back negative and my bloodwork came back negative following my appointment. So I miscarried basically as soon as I found out, or as the completely insensitive and dehumanizing term for this is a "chemical pregnancy". I think spotting is okay but I literally was full blown period with tampons and the works.
I hope it works out for you! I hope this helps ease your mind a little!
