I tested a faint positive on Tuesday 2nd Jan but then immediately started light bleeding. I’ve been light bleeding for 7 days now (enough to fill 3/4 a pad some days) and had cramps. I have convinced myself it’s a miscarriage but then I’ve been taking pregnancy tests to monitor hcg and they are actually getting darker which has really confused me?
Does anyone know if this can happen during a chemical? How long should it take for my hcg to start dropping?
Here is this mornings test and a pic of last weeks test from 2nd Jan in the comments.

I think you should get ahold of your doctor and ask for hcg levels. It could be that you are just bleeding from like a sub chorionic hemorrhage or something harmless but it seems like you are still pregnant. Hcg may provide a clearer picture of what is happening.
Thank you for replying! I spoke to my doctor last week and he said there was nothing he could do - I will try again today. I need answers!

Definitely ask specifically for two hcg tests 48 hours apart. There isn’t much to do but you can at least know hopefully what’s happening.
