Chemical pregnancy?? Any help or insight is appreciated and needed!

Question

So yesterday at lunch (1130ish) I took a pregnancy test since my period was due Thursday and it still wasn't there. I forgot to look at it (since they are alway negative) but when I got home there was a faint line. I knew it was invalid but I was out of tests, went to Walmart and bought more tests, then tested again, the line looked about the same maybe a tiny bit darker but pretty close. That was at 6:30ish. I work early so I tested again with FMU and the line at 5am is lighter then yesterday's lines, I'm probably going to have a chemical pregnancy and get my period right? Or am I just testing too close together? Any insight is appreciated!! ☺️

Answer

My tests are always worse with FMU. Like the other poster said, I would use smu. But really you will only see progression every 48 hours

Answer

Not necessarily. I would wait and not test again until tomorrow or the day after, hcg doubles every 48 hours or so. It will likely get darker by then. If it doesn't get darker it doesn't automatically mean a chemical though.

I would give your doctor a call and get a blood test.

Answer

I've had better luck using my second urine of the day, with a 3-4 hour hold without liquids after FMU.
