Chemical pregnancies

Hiya, had a CP last cycle and what I'm really wondering is how likely is it that I'll have another. Have any of you ladies had more than one? Has anyone experienced this in a consecutive cycle? I've read some really positive posts about having successful pregnancies after CP so just wanting both sides really.

I started with pg symptoms very early in last cycle and was feeling out of sorts for nearly 5 weeks in total so really hoping not to go through that again. All part of the process :)

I had one in February and then got pregnant straight away. I'm 7 weeks so past the chemical pregnancy stage. I did google and read about people having more then one in a row but I think your more likely to be ok.

I'm interested in this too after also having a chemical last cycle. Are you planning in skipping this month ttc or carrying straight on? My head is telling me to have normal AF first but my heart is saying get straight back on it!

We've just tried straight away as everything I read, including lots of people on here said it is fine with many of them getting pg soon after. I'm only about 4dpo and already started with the painful boobs I had last time, it's proving difficult trying not to think about it! If you don't mind me asking, how long did you bleed/AF? Mine was only about 6-8 hours which seemed odd! How long have you been ttc for? It was our first cycle last month so was unexpected so soon.

I had one the cycle before I conceived this pg. Positive tests, but only on the sensitive ones. I was just getting used to the idea (day 40 of what was usually a 33ish day cycle) when started bleeding. Heavier than usual but didn't last any longer. This time round, the tests showed an instant line on the pound shop cheapies.
Don't see any reason why you should wait before ttc again - good luck!

That was our third cycle, had bfp on frer April Fools Day which did darken a little over time but clearblue digi never went above 1-2 weeks.
I started to bleed exactly a week later. AF is usually 7-8 days and I think I'm coming to the end now.
This one was heavier and more painful though.
Think we're just going to go for it straight away too and hope for the best. I'm 39 in August so feel like time is running out!

It was a shock for me too as we conceived DD with no trouble at all, first time!

If you try straight after a chemical it's worth bearing in mind you might ov at a different time. I normally ov on cd16 but this time it was cd20.

Thanks everyone! I don't use opk's but got my usual ov pain around the same time as usual so hopefully my timings are right :)
