I had a mmc in feb this year and had a d and c which got all the product out straight away. However, 2 weeks later i did a pregnancy test and it came back positive. Clear as day. There was no way i was pregnant, hadnt had sex since the d and c. Spoke to the dr, he told me it can take a few weeks for your hcg levels to drop, depending on how far along u are. My babies heart stopped at 9 weeks so i wasnt that far. I hope this helps. I know you will be holding out hope that you may not have miscarried, i have my fingers crossed for you. But that was the case for me.

Hi, I had a miscarriage in September and after passing the sac it took just under 3 weeks to get a negative test. I was advised to check after 2, then regularly check and if nothing by 4 weeks to go back to EPU for another scan to check for retained products. I really hope you've not lost your baby but if you have, please don't lose hope. 8 weeks on from my MC I am 6 weeks pregnant again Smile so it can happen xx
