Chemical pregnancy/early miscarriage

H

Do other people find that healthcare professionals not count a chemical pregnancy at all?

I had one miscarriage at 6 weeks (went to hospital and had ultrasound) and one chemical/early before at 5 weeks (period late, positive test though fainter, few days later bleeding started, did test again a week later and definitely negative) and possibly another chemical now (faint but definite positive, 1 episode small bit of blood on wiping once daily for 3 days).

I had a baby after the last chemical and when they were taking my history of previous pregnancies told "oh if you never got an ultrasound it doesn't count" re the chemical/early.

It just upset me as once you see those lines your mind races and hopes go up, so even it they don't count as a "miscarriage " surely they should be acknowledged
