Advice on chemical pregnancy

Hi I posted at the beginning of last week asking thoughts on a BFP. I did several more tests that all confirmed positive however I started to bleed on Wednesday. Me and DH have decided we want to continue trying again straight away. So do I treat this like a delayed AF and take Wednesday as CD1?? Any advice would be great, thanks

Hi Boodles. I had a chem preg last year and treated it as a late period, and then conceived that cycle. Had a MMC unfortunately but don't see why you can't. Good luck!

Yes, think of it as AF being late and count from 1st day of bleeding. Good luck.

I had a chemical pregnancy the cycle before I conceived with Ds. I got my successful bfp 6 weeks after the chemical pregnancy so my cycle was delayed by 2 weeks.

Each person is different so don't be disheartened if the cycle is longer than usual but you don't get a bfp straight away.

I think I had one last month too. AF was 5 days late and I've counted my cycle from Day 1 of AF.

I had a chemical in January after 2 years of infertility and informed my GPs advice to wait a cycle before trying again. I fell pregnant straight away again, and had another chemical. 3 weeks later and I'm still bleeding and cramping and on medication for abnormal uterine bleeding and also anaemic as a result. The gp basically said my body couldn't cope with all the hormones. I really wish I'd listened to advice and given my body chance to reset.
