Amanda, I wonder if this is why it's taken so long for your levels to go down?I'm pretty convinced I have retained tissue. I finally got a blood draw last week (6w post loss) and my numbers were 33. I know I'm still not under 25 so they must be going slow. My uterus still feels heavy and I've been spotting randomly. Did you end up going to the doctor? What did they say?
TMI passed this morning. I bled for 8 days post D&e then nothing for over a week then I started spotting. I have been sitting heavier and heavier for 21 days then this morning i passed this. It's hard and tissue like. Any one have a similar experience?

Amanda, I found a website where you can edit your bbt.. You put in your normal test time and then your actual test time and temp and it edits it for you. Not sure how accurate it is though. Just got a positive OPK and EWCM today so we will see how it goes!

My hpt are negative, my last treated level was 8. I have finally stopped spotting which is a relief. But still no period. I have another ultrasound and blood test set for the end of the month as the last one showed a clot and they want to make sure it resolved itself, i certainly didn't pass any clots so i assume it's either still there or reabsorbed. I tried bbt for a few days, but I hate mornings and kept forgetting and then walking up at 6am on the weekends felt awful lol

Do you bbt? That's what I'm going to try doing because then hopefully I'll know if I ovulated.. But yeah my plan was to just not drink and test every so often. My HCG still isn't down yet though.. Blood test in two more weeks but HPT are still positive.
I did! After my loss spotting went on for ages, then during my next ??period?? I passed 2 pieces of tissue like this. I assumed it was retained products. But it could also bedecidua

January, i wanted to ask, how long after you passed the tissue did you ovulate/return to a normal cycle? We are wanting to ttc as soon as possible and today seems to be the first day that i haven't spotted. I have an ultrasound on Wednesday to make sure there is no more retained tissue.
Am
*spotting... not spring
Am
what is decidua? The bleeding has now increased and is much more "period like" than the spring i had before... but the cramps and back pain of the last few days is gone... wondering if i should worry and go get checked out or just wait to see the doctor...
I'd call your OB... That could be retained placental "products." I had a D&C immediately following my stillbirth and then again two weeks after because I was passing huge chunks of tissue. It was painful as all get out too. Better safe than sorry, id call and mention it and see what they say.
Am
go sit in the ER to be told it's nothing.
