Chemical Pregnancy

I recently had an ultra sound to determine how far along i was in my pregnancy, however both the ultra sound tech and doc nurse said it Maybe to early to see anything or it could be what the nurse called a chemical pregnancy has anyone experienced this

Hello! And thanks for the reply. Correct. The didnt see anything in the ultra sound. On 6/15 my hCG level was 350+ and my first home pregnancy test the line that would indicate pregnancy was very light but still present and the second home test a week later that same line was bold and bright. It was mentioned it may have been too small and at the most im early 4th week. Or it could a chemical pregnancy. I mentioned slight cramping to a nurse a week ago nuf l0

Do you mean they did an ultrasound but there was nothing there?  A chemical pregnancy is simply an early miscarriage (as in you miscarried before your period was even due).  You should be able to see *something* at 5w. If you're less than 5w it's possible the egg is just too small to see.
