Is it just me ???

Question

Before coming on here I have never ever heard the term chemical pregnancy, yet they seem to be a daily occurance on here, although judging by alot of pictures that get posted of faint faint lines, which are obviously negative, ive come to the conclusion that people are just having there periods a couple of days late. anybody else agree ????

Answer

Why would you post this in this forum, where there's likely a higher percentage of women who have actually experienced this? And for those of us who have (and it's probably far more than those who just think they have), this comes off as sounding pretty cruel. Take you bad vibes elsewhere, please! This page is for encouragement, not judgment.

Answer

Chemical pregnancies absolutely happen, and maybe I had a faint test at 10 dpo but that's 4 days before my period is due, also taken with an internet cheapie test, not to mention my pregnancy was confirmed twice with blood work, however my levels never increased how they should and my period ended up coming only a day late. You should do some research before you post such a bold comment and offending many woman on here including myself.

Answer

Yes it is just you! Just because you haven't heard of it before, does not make it any less real, especially for the women that are left scarred by them (myself included). Your ignorance and crudeness are both offensive and quite sad. You really should think before you post and/or God forbid, maybe consult google at the very least.

Answer

My chemical was confirmed by doctor so was def a line on my faint test and def not clearly neg ? Bit insulting 
They are only being brought to people's attention now due to the test you can take that detect so early

Answer

It is just you, because chemical pregancies do happen to people. Someone women don't even realize it's happening, while others are left feeling hurt and confused at the loss. It's similar to a miscarriage. And also, the faint faint lines that you're talking about - those are positives. Not negatives. There wouldn't be two lines if it were otherwise (unless of course it's an evap).

Be careful with the way you say things because there are women in these groups much like myself who've been TTC for months and months, who've experienced chemical pregnancies or miscarriages, that could find your ignorance to be offensive.

Answer

Chemical pregnancies are very real. I've had 4, the lines may be faint but if there is a line it's Positive. I've had my chemicals confirmed my a dr. They are very real and very frustrating.

Answer

You probably haven't heard of it so much before because when your trying to conceive you are aware of all your cycle patterns and usually start peeing on sticks immediately so chances of catching a chemical pregnancy are high. A chemical pregnancy is just what the name says, chemical, there is no baby but the chemicals are there because pregnancy is trying to happen. I'm sure if you Google it you'll get a thorough explanation and then you'll understand. And a negative test will not have a line. So those faint are positive. We are TTC so instead of waiting to test until uh oh we're late, meaning not planned when a positive would be very dark, testing early and hoping for the BFP is where the faint lines come in.

Answer

Any line regardless of how faint it is is a positive. Unfortunately these do not turn into viable pregnancies, I missed a period but only by a week and had very clear positive tests. Unfortunately I then bled and was no longer pregnant.

It is heartbreaking to 'be pregnant' when your trying and it doesn't stick.

Do some research and maybe you will be more sensitive and informed in future.

Answer

I had very faint lines for my 2 and 3 child pregnancy test and here they are 5 and 3 years old! I had 2 miscarriages 1 faint line one extremely bold line. No matter what the lines look like it means your pregnant.

Answer

Is that why my DOCTOR told me that's what it was...your ignorant along with a lot of other people on here. This post really hurt.
