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 seriously think I wrote this post myself. I would be willing to bet you're pregnant again, I got pregnant barely 2 weeks after my miscarriage. I tested negative days after my miscarriage and then suddenly they were positive again, I thought I was crazy and there was no way until i went and got an ultrasound and sure enough there was baby and a heartbeat.

Answer

I'm no doctor, but I'm a nurse and I've had 2 losses so I've tracked my hcg down to 0 with these exact tests. I would bet you are pregnant again. The line is getting darker. You can't tell anything from one hcg blood draw. You need a second to see if the level is going up or down. Ask for another blood draw and then an ultrasound if the # is higher than your previous draw (178). They need to see if it is a new pregnancy or residual tissue from previous one, but I would bet just about anything it's a new pregnancy since you had negative tests before the new positives. I'm so sorry for your loss and I pray this is your rainbow! Good luck to you!

I also miscarried on the 16th April, I got a negative HpT and blood test one week after miscarriage and am now pregnant again which has been confirmed by bloods. X

Answer

I just had a miscarriage on 4/30, bleeded for about a week and we've been having unprotected sex but I took test this morning I could've sworn I saw a really really really faint line but I don't know. Good luck to you!

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

To me it sounds like you could be pregnant again! Good luck and baby dust to you!
