Paranoid about chemical pregnancy

This is my first ever pregnancy and first positive test. I am 4w 6 days and my tests are showing as faint.

I’m convinced that I must be having a chemical pregnancy after spending time on the internet. Now I’m hyper aware of all “symptoms” and feel like I am having symptoms I might not even be having.

I convinced myself today I was going to start bleeding to the point where I’m going to the toilet and feel like I’m “pushing” to see if I have any clots.

I’m feeling very negative about everything and I spent all this morning/last night crying. As much as I don’t want this to turn out to be a failed pregnancy, I’m waiting for it to happen.

Am I going crazy?

I think I’m having/had a chemical

On Sunday, I took my first pregnancy test that ever had a faint line/first positive and was over the moon. Since then I’ve taken a test daily and the faint lines have been faint for the past few days. After spending time looking into this group it has suggested I’m having/ or have had a chemical pregnancy.

What do I do now? What do I expect?

I’m guessing it’s a “period” or a bleed? But, how long should I expect to wait? Is it going to be heavy?

I’m supposed to go away camping for the weekend and I’m going to guess it’ll happen then, when it’s the most inconvenient.

I’m now hyper aware of all feelings and am convinced and can feel something happening, when in reality I can’t. I really wish I didn’t have to go to work today and pretend this wasn’t happening.
