A full cycle out from my month long drawn out chemical from end of September to finally getting a period November 4th. I had cramping 5/6dpo so I was hopeful and after this and seeing a negative just brought back the raw feelings of the chemical. I wish I could say I see a shadow but I know my eyes are playing tricks on me more than likely

I remember your story and how frustrating and painful it was to experience that long and drawn out chemical pregnancy. I sympathize with you and I understand wanting very much to be pregnant but to avoid heartbreak and disappointment I recommend testing as close as you can to when your period is due for better test results accuracy. Seeing negatives can be hurtful but do keep in mind that perhaps you might be testing too early. Implantation may not have happened yet and if it has there might not have been enough hcg produced yet to cause a positive home pregnancy test result. It’s too early to be discouraged, there still time for a positive. I can see that this TTC process has been stressful for you and stress is not good for you when you’re TTC or pregnant or for your overall mental health. Don’t lose faith, hope you get an undeniable positive soon. Good luck.

I agree with waiting to test. As eager as I am to test early, I’m planning to hold off until my expected period day because I don’t want to be disappointed by a negative test. Good luck!
