Well after having faint positives and a positive digital test before I missed my period last week, I decided take another (3) tests today bc of my lack of symptoms and all negative so I'm assuming I'm going to have a chemical pregnancy. For those of you who have experienced this, should I see my doctor about this or should I just expect a heavier period and move on with TTC? Thanks for your input. Wishing you all a happy and healthy 9 months!!

So sorry @PhillymommaX2. When I had a chemical pregnancy, I didn't go the doctor and didn't get a period, but ended up pregnant the next month. Because of the CP, when I got a positive again my OB saw me at 5 weeks and then again at 8 weeks. If it is a CP I hope you get your sticky baby quickly!
I am so sorry to hear this. I have had one and was told there was no need to wait to continue TTC.
Eta: My doctor had me go get betas drawn to see when hcg returned to 0 but yours may or may not depending on your history. Still worth a call to check, perhaps.
I'm so sorry. During my chemicals, my doctor didn't have me come in or do blood work. It was just a heavier period than normal. I also didn't have to wait at all to try again.
@phillymommax2 I am sorry for your loss. You should call your doctor and see what they want to do. Probably at most, they may do a beta. At the least, they may tell you to just call next time you have a positive. I wish you lots of luck and will send prayers your way!!
It's funny how it's the little things in life that mean the most...not where you live, or what you drive, or the price tag on your clothes... There's no dollar sign on a piece of mind, this I've come to know! *ZBB*
I am so sorry you are going through this. During my CP, my doc did two blood draws to confirm HCG went down to zero. Other than that, she didn't/couldn't do anything. So going in gave me the closure of knowing it happened, but also felt depressing to add the appointments on top of the sadness.
