New pregnancy? Or old hormones?

Question

Help! I had a miscarriage in 04/16/16. I have not had a period and tested negative on HPTs about a week after miscarriage. Starting on Sunday, it jsaw a faint positive and it has only gotten darker from there as you can see. My doctor did a blood test yesterday and numbers were only 178, so he said it is still left over from miscarriage. I just can't believe that since the line is getting darker! Could this be a new pregnancy? Or just residual hormones from miscarriage as my doctor thinks?

Answer

I would definitely say new pregnancy there is no question that your line is getting darker which means hormones are increasing not decreasing save those pictures make a doctor's appointment and bring them with you they will get you in for some blood work and then have you repeated two days later to double check and make sure that your hormones are going up but I'd be willing to bet a million bucks if I had it that you are pregnant again congratulations Mama sending you lots of sticky Bean dust

Answer

I think because you tested negative and now positive it makes me believe it's a new pregnancy. If you get your levels checked again in a week and they've gone up (doubling every two days) then it's for sure new. Good luck!

Any update?

Answer

Called doctor, I'm will go in on Monday to see what is happening to my levels and hopefully get an answer. He still thinks due to the low number (178) it could still be from old pregnancy and hormones. I can't feel anymore confused at this point.

Answer

Yep, what she said! Congrats!

Answer

I agree i think you are pregnant again which can technically happen without a period. I would get tested again :)
