Noc a doc, but it sounds like you did conceive, but that your body did
not produce enough HCG to maintain the pregnancy. In other words, you
experienced a very early miscarriage, which is extremely common and
often goes undetected as it can be easily mistaken for a late period.
See archives, search: "chemical pregnancy" to learn more. Best

She wants me to re-test but I've been so upset over this whole thing, I'd rather not deal with it... So my question is, now what does a 7 mean? Did I have a miscarriage or something? She also mentioned that having a period doesn't matter, that she had a period herself for 2 months into her pregnancy... So confused... Help!
