Intro and chemical pregnancy question

edited March 2017 in TTC After a Loss
Hi ladies, last week I had 3 faint positive Frers and a positive digital 3 days leading up to when my period was due . Thought I was pregnant bc of the tests, but didn't feel pregnant AT ALL. Monday decided to test again and got 2 stark white BFNs and a negative digital. Called my doctor and they said it's probably a chemical and they didnt need to see me but to keep testing every few days until I get my period. I know 100% I'm not pregnant, but I was wondering when you got your period after a chemical. I have zero cramping and no bleeding whatsoever, and my period was due Saturday . If it wasn't for a "feeling" I had, I would still think I'm pregnant.  Thank you for your input.

    sorry to hear about your loss.  I had a chemical at 5 weeks and the blood from it was different from period blood.  It was thicker, more stringy and not as heavy as AF.  The first day of that bleeding was CD1 of my next cycle.  I was told I was going to have a CP and a week later the bleeding started.  I don't know if that helps - sounds like your CP was not as far in as mine.

    Thanks @vlagrl29. It does help, I'm waiting patiently for my period to return so that I can TTC again. I probably wouldn't have even known about this if I didn't test a day or two early and would be probably going crazy with all the negative tests and no period. Thanks again!

    @PhillymommaX2 I had a CP at CD45/CD1 and CD40/CD1. I usually get hella cramps with AF, but I actually had mild cramps with the first CP and none at all with the second. Both were a bit lighter than normal AF, which was surprising to me.

    So sorry this happened to you.  Some ladies warned me that my AF following the CP cycle would be a little intense and it was in my case. I had many days (I think 5)of very heavy bleeding when I normally have only 1.  I also didn't ovulate until CD 22 when I normally O around CD15.  Be prepared for a wonky cycle, although I hope you don't have one.  GL.

    I am on my 3rd CP in 3 months, so I guess i am an expert? (what a terrible thing to be an expert on). My periods after have been super light with a bit of clotting, lasting 1-2 days. Usually my periods are really heavy. I have heard that for many, it's very heavy. Point is, it can really go either way. I just happen to have the light version. Best of luck.
