Can anyone tell me how you know if its a chemical pregnancy? Do you get BFP's on HPT's? Do you go through the same symptoms as a "sticky" pregnancy? Do your symptoms eventually go away? Any info would be great! TIA!

A chem PG, is a very crude way of saying you've had a VERY early miscarriage. I was told by my doctor that these types of m/c are very common, yet are often times never detected because the m/c can happen and then the woman gets her period either right on time or maybe just a couple days late and she may never even know she was pregnant, just think it's her period.

But a known chem pg is when you've tested (normally early) and get a positive, then within a couple of days you start bleeding and have the m/c.
