Sad and confused :( residue HCG after MC giving me a positive or a new BFP?

So after my MC I tested down my HCG with easy@home cheapies. I was getting squinters for around 2.5 weeks after my MC bleeding started but I was sure that I was getting stark white negatives by about CD 20/21.

I'm currently in my TWW and I decided to POAS at 6dpo just to be sure there was no residual HCG that could give me a false positive. I took it was negative.

Today at 8dpo (early I know...) I decided to POAS on a cheapie. Saw a faint faint line. I filled a FRER in and there was a suppppper faint line but could potentially be an indent.

Feels too early. So I checked the test from 6dpo which was negative when I took it and I can now see a faint line on that after it dried 2 days ago...

Now I'm sad and confused. It's been 5 weeks since the start of my MC bleeding and I was so sure I had neg tests at 2.5 weeks. But it that test from 6dpo was positive then it HAS to be left over from that previous pregnancy right? As it's too early for a BFP in this new cycle?

I'm quite sure that couldn't have ovulated early than I thought but here is a link to my chart: www.fertilityfriend.com/home/74c721

Any words of wisdom?

I'm really sorry for what you're going through. My advice would be to go to your doctor and get a blood beta done.
I had this exact thing - except it was after ectopic pregnancy surgery in July and my hcg only went to 5 in September.
When I got the blood hcg done it was something like 600 after the surgery and they told me I had something called trophoblastic disease.
Instead of trying to interpret pregnancy test lines, just go to the doctor and get an accurate blood test done.
I wish you the best x
