OK so I've had some really heavy bleeding and I assumed I was out. I've just taken a test to see if it was at least getting fainter and its even darker than the one I took 5 days ago?? I know it takes a while for hcg to go down but surely my test should be fainter and not darker? With previous miscarriages my tests turned negative quite quickly. I've an appointment tomorrow and will have hcg checked then but anyone know why this would be? Could I have a severe bleed and be OK or is something else more likely?
