Been there
Hello, it was about four years ago now that I had a chemical pregnancy. The craziest thing was that I went to the hospital and got a blood test the confirmed pregnancy.
I went to work one morning and I went to sit down and had this terrible pain in my lower back and abdomen. I call my mother, a labor and delivery nurse for 30+ years, to ask her what she thought might be happening. She said it sounded like a miscarriage. I have Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) so my periods are not exactly regular. I had no Idea that I might be pregnant.
Terrified I ran to the doctor to find out what was going on. I had a blood test and it confirmed the pregnancy test I took at home. I went to my OBGYN and they did a sonogram and did not see anything at all. The lining was old and about ot shed and my body was going through an essential miscarriage without the baby.
My husband and I had just gone through two years of trying with a quack of a doctor so we had the highest of the highs and the lowest of the lows all in the same day.
So yes, they are real things and not just your mind playing tricks on you, it is more like your body.
