@Ruby0709. Yes, I am bleeding and passing clots so definately think I have my answer.

Dragonfly... I’ve never had a chemical pregnancy before so I’m not sure, maybe this was one? I know it’s discouraging but just keep at it. We’re all here to support each other. It’ll happen!

Dragonfly - both your tests definitely look positive. I don't have much info on the technical terms or how this happens because I know it's not likely that someone receives a false positive. Could this be a chemical pregnancy? I don't have much info about that but that's the first thing I thought of whenyou posted that you're now bleeding like a period with clots.

I've never had a chemical pregnancy and yesterday was the first time testing so I don't even know if I was pregnant beforeas i started spotting since Thursday (11dpo). I was waiting till I missed AF to test. Should I have been testing sooner? Should I test again this afternoon or just leave it? I have one more FR 6 days sooner.

Dragonfly - I would wait until tomorrow's FMU to test to See if it gets any darker. If you have an internet cheapie I would use that this afternoon maybe?

Also drangonfly, don't worry about not testing sooner , waiting to test until AF is supposed to arrive is good. It would have been so disappointing to get a line and then period show up, for me anyways, know what I mean?

Dragonfly... I’d give it another day or 2 and just use the last one to be sure. Spotting doesn’t mean you’re out. If it’s full AF, you’re out.

@mir777. That's what happened the last cycle. Same thing, faint line then AF. Been passing some clots and clots always mean your out.

So disappointing for you Dragonfly, so sorry. I've never had even the smallest hint of a line so I can't imagine seeing it and then it be taken away from me. Ugh this process can be so stressful and sad.

@dragonfly My heart hurts for you. I was just there in November, so I understand. I waited until the bleeding stopped to use my last test. It takes a while for HCG to work it's way back down to 0 with a chemical, thus still getting a positive result. I took my last test to make sure it was negative... Therefore all the HCG was gone.
