Has anyone ever had or know anything about chemical pregnancies?
I was told last week that I had one and that they are very common.....well, that didn't really make me feel BETTER.
I was just wondering what anyone knows about them and if they have had one and then successful pregnancy after one?
Thank you so much in advance for anything you can share :)

Wow I learn something new every day. I had never heard of the term chemical pregnancy until I looked it up.
"What is a Chemical Pregnancy?
A chemical pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg does not implant into the uterine wall. If a pregnancy test is taken just at the right time it will be positive, however, when a repeat test is taken several days later it will be negative. A chemical pregnancy leaves the couple to cope with the difficult news of thinking they were pregnant when in reality they are miscarrying. However, majority of women who have a chemical pregnancy never know they are pregnant before they miscarry and begin what they think is their normal menstrual cycle.
......There is no impact on future pregnancies and the majority of women become pregnant and deliver without difficulty. "
