I honestly thought that a chemical pregnancy was when you got your period a couple days after it was due. About 6 days had gone by since my period was due, and I was still getting positive tests, so we started telling people. My dad, my sister, our stepson.

I used up my cute baby reveal ideas I had been planning for years, only to get my period last night. I am so devastated.

And I am also embarrassed because as I read more about chemical pregnancies, I realized I should have waited longer to tell people.

I just want to curl up in a ball and cry. I have wanted to be a mom for so long. All I can do is sit here and wonder what I should have done differently. 😢💔🥀
