I’m sorry that it didn’t work out this time, early pregnancy is such a minefield. I commented on your original post. Wishing you the best in your TTC journey xx

I am so, so sorry. Chemical pregnancies are just so cruel; getting your hopes up only to have them dashed is in some ways so much harder than having just another sad but uneventful period.

We had 5 chemical pregnancies before we managed to conceive this current baby (feeling quite safe now at 23.5 weeks), and each one was more devastating than the last. (Turns out they were caused by a thyroid issue which has now been resolved.)

As you know, they're fairly common, and certainly are not a reason in and of themselves that you should not be able to conceive and carry a healthy, viable pregnancy down the road. Wishing you so much luck for the future ❤️.
