Chemical Pregnancy
Has anyone here had an early miscarriage aka 'chemical pregnancy'? When did you know the bleeding was a miscarriage and not spotting, and how long did it take for you to stop getting a positive pregnancy test?
Re: Chemical Pregnancy
I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks, I thought it was just a late period, however the pregnancy test I had done that morning via the doctors showed I was positive. I think that early on, it is difficult to know, there were a few clots. I didnt do a further pregnancy test as the bleeding was like a heavy period so felt no need to do it, also my boobs stopped hurting the day after.

I'm afraid I don't know anything about this but didn't want to read and not reply.
I'm sure you have done plenty of reseaqrch into it online but I always go to babycentre.co.uk for info on all things pregnancy related. I remember there being a few posts about chemical pregnancies on the actively trying board a few months ago. I have always found the forums helpful and the information pages easy to digest.
Hope you find the answers you need.

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
Thanks Gina and Jenn. The bleeding isn't very heavy which I'm a bit confused by as I assumed that once it started it would be like a normal period. I just want to know for sure really.

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
Also I'm still getting morning sickness and am very tired, I would have thought they'd have stopped at the end of the pregnancy. Bah.

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
I don't really know anything about this either i'm afraid but are you defiantly sure it's not just heavier spotting. maybe book a dr's appointment, even if it's just to put your mind at rest.
Sorry to hear it though, hope your ok xx

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
Louise, get yourself booked an appointment with a doctor, if he is concerned he will refer you on to the Early Pregnancy Unit. Either that or you can phone them via the hospital and they can advise you.

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
Yes, but a few days after my period was due - tested positive yesterday then started bleeding last night. Not heavy but considerably more than spotting.

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
Ahh huni. I no its easy to say but try and rest up as much as you can. The bleed could be anything. I would see a doc and see what they suggest for you.
Like Gina said really you would pass a few things if it was more than spotting hun. The M/C I had befor having Jack I knew it wasnt my period and the pain was alot worse I knew it wasnt right and was over within a day or so to the finish. The bleeding was there tho for a while, but you will no huni if its not right iykwim.
I hope everything is ok hun. Thinking of you x

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
whats your cycle hun? If you ovulate later then it could well be implantation bleeding just around the time that your period is due. If you call the midwife then they should be able to get you into the EPU at southend who can check it all out for sure. Fingers crossed for you. I did wonder if you might be pregnant when you said you were feeling nauseous (((hugs)))

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
I tend to have a pretty short cycle - about 25 days, and I think I ovulate around 12/13 but I don't chart it, just normally have mittelschmerz. It's normally pretty regular too so it would be pretty late for implantation bleeding. I suppose I could have ovulated later than normal though.
I'm not holding my breath but may try to get a blood test done in the next few days. I think I'll see how I feel in a couple of days, see if the bleeding changes and take another test to see if it's lighter or darker, then will decide from there.
Thanks everyone.

Re: Chemical Pregnancy
I have my fingers crossed for you Louise.
I miscarried at 5 or 6 weeks 3 months before i conceived Brandon. I did have pain, like a bad period pain and from the spotting starting to it being a heavy bleed, it only took about an hour and a half. I had the pain on and off for about a day or 2, then it stopped, with period type bleed carrying on for about 4 days.
When i fell for Brandon though, i bled again, with only a little pain, and had an internal scan which only showed the sac as i was only about 5 weeks, but had another scan 2 weeks later and saw his little heart beating. I carried on bleeding every 4 weeks, when i would have been due my period until after i reached 12 weeks pregnant. I dont know why though and i didnt have any bleeding at all with Ruby, so even if you havent had bleeds with Felix and Iris, you could still have it and i hope thats whats going on for you. Definately go doctors or hospital and hopefully you will get an early scan to check things for you xx
