Am I having a chemical pregnancy ?? Please help?

[Jemsweets]

Hi guys, so I'm brand new to this site and have been TTC for 2 years!! Yesterday I was a week late on my period and took a test and it was positive, I was ecstatic!! Then last night I went to the toilet and had a gush of blood!! (Tmi sorry) then really really bad cramping!! I went to doctors this morning and her first thought was a miscarriage, she then did a pregnancy test and it was negative. She then changed from miscarriage to she thinks I'm actually just having a period!! And she couldn't explain the pregnancy test being positive even tho it was in front of her?! I'm super confused and convinced I've had a chemical pregnancy!! Has anyone went through similar or have any views please??

TIA ❤️

I might be wrong but I don't think the tests the doctors use are very sensitive so you very well could have had a very early loss. The doctor would have changed her mind from miscarriage to period because usually after a miscarriage the hcg levels hang around for a bit.

Or it could have been a bad/dodgy test you used? But it sounds more like an early loss if you period was a week late too.
So sorry xx

Thankyou Millie.

I've done my research and I'm convinced it's been a chemical pregnancy!! I'm glad you agree. I used a clear blue test so I would have thought they were pretty accurate? Xxx

Sorry to hear you have gone through this

I agree with you it seems like it is an early loss, it sounds like your doctor has been quite insensitive too. Look after yourself xx

Thankyou Donna, if this is a loss tho surely it should have to be documented on my records? Xxxx

 

[Donna88]

I'm sure someone else will come in with a more educated opinion on this, but I don't think it does have to be documented as lots of women have them without even knowing they're pregnant yet

I hope the hospital staff were a lot more sympathetic than your gp was.

It's not an easy thing to go through, so sorry this happened to you xx

Oh sweetie, I’m so sorry for you, I suffered a chemical this month too and it’s a rollercoaster and some people don’t even acknowledge it’s a loss!

Big hugs and I hope it gets easier xx

Aw I’m sorry to hear that. Unfortunately a lot of GP’s would say similar as there’s very little they can do. It’s such a shame - sending hugs x

Bless you xx
It really is an awful thing to go through, I hope you will feel better in time.
It took me months to get over my miscarriage and still even now I have days where I feel so down about it and have a cry. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

So sorry to read this is happening to you

I went through a very similar thing last year (almost 12 months ago now) i got my BFP on the Saturday, began bleeding on the Monday, went to doctors on the Wednesday, he confirmed i was pregnant but said i may be miscarrying, i took a test the next day and it was very faint, the day after it was completely negative - they confirmed it was definitely a miscarry i was 6 weeks along. I was devastated and it all happened 6 days before my birthday!

11 months down the line and i haven't fallen pregnant since.

It helped me to know i wasn't alone and that i hadn't been the only one to go through it.

It's such a heart breaking experience that i wouldn't wish on anyone at all! It's been nearly a year for me and it still makes me feel very sad, i just tried to fill the hurt with things that made me happy...it's taken me all this time to believe I'll fall pregnant again one day, but it's a personal struggle that is different for every woman.

Sending you lots of love xxx
