Thought I would make a disclaimer in the title in case anyone wanted to skip this post.
So I suspected something was wrong when I took follow up tests after getting my positive and they never got darker. I took one tonight and it's so faint I can hardly see it. I had to tilt and squint. It looks like this one just isn't going to stick...
I had an hcg draw today and have another thursday to see what happens with my levels, but I'm just waiting for confirmation and my period to come now. I'm 99% sure that unless there's some sort of miracle then I'm having a chemical pregnancy.
This is my third loss. I had a blighted ovum, triploidy resulting in a mmc, and now a chemical pregnancy (I'm assuming and hoping it's not ectopic). I'll know for sure after my testing. I guess I just have colossal bad luck and I'm just feeling really bummed. I hope everyone here has a successful and h&h 9 months. I wish you all well.

@projectalice I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through... I had a MMC at 13 weeks in June and I know there's nothing that anyone can really say that will make the pain go away. Just know that I am thinking of you and praying for you and your family.
@projectalice I'm so sorry you're going through this! Can you call them to ask for your numbers?

Thank you. I finally got my hcg levels for yesterday, at 4 weeks. I was 37. Which is on the low end, but I got a positive wondfo 4 days before that. Wondfo detects as low as 25iu, so if I was at the minimum of 25 4 days ago then obviously my numbers aren't doubling. Like at all. So they're checking me tomorrow just to see what my numbers are doing, but hopefully they drop quickly so I can get this over with. I don't want to drag it out any longer than is absolutely necessary.
Ugh. I am so sorry @projectalice. I was really hoping your numbers would be good news and bring reassurance. I hope closure comes sooner rather than later for your sake.
