Positive tests, temp dip, bleeding... what is going on?!

I had a miscarriage last month. My HCG returned to pre pregnancy levels pretty quickly and we decided to keep trying right away. 8DPO I done a test thinking I was 10DPO (I was still tracking but purposefully not looking at my chart in an attempt to not obsess over anything and guessed my ovulation as the day after my peak but it wasn't).
Anyway I done a test and got a vvvv faint line, so faint I decided it wasn't worth squinting at and chucked it in the bin. I done another the next morning that was also very faint but definitely there. I binned it then regretted it so did another that afternoon which was slightly clearer. I did another this morning at 10DPO which was slightly clearer again and my temp had dipped so thought that might have been an implantation dip. A couple of hours later I started bleeding, bright red and crampy. I'm still bleeding but not soaking a pad, I've had 2 pads on today and only a tiny spot of blood on one of them. But the blood is running out when I go to the toilet (sorry for tmi!). Another test this afternoon was much clearer which I wasn't expecting with the amount of blood I've lost.
EPU said as it's so early to just test again in a week and get back to them then with the result. I know it's not looking good but I was so ecstatic that I'd managed to get pregnant again right away, it took a year before the miscarriage last month.

Does anyone have any similar stories with a good outcome?!

I'll be testing again in the morning and I'm intrigued to see what my temp will be. Maybe I'll have a clearer picture then but for now I just want to hold on to the hope that I'm still pregnant Sad

Hmm, I'm not sure I would agree with where premom has put your ov, I think you're right that it was day after peak. That would put you at 12dpo - how long is your luteal phase normally I'm? I'm really sorry op but it looks like it might be a chemical with such a big temp drop :( really hoping your temp bounces back up tomorrow after all xx

@Noodella18 It normally puts ovulation as day after peak so I'm not sure why it didn't this time, my temp normally spikes straight away whereas it took a few days this time so maybe that's where the confusion happened. My luteal phase is 12 days.
I was kind of expecting my tests to fade as soon as I started bleeding if it was a chemical, but I've never had one before that I'm aware of so very prepared to be wrong. I had a big temp dip when I got pregnant in March so I think I'm just trying to clutch on to that still being a possibility even though I know how unlikely it is.

I just hate the not really knowing and I hate how little patience I have, I wish I could just wait the week out before poas again but I there's no chance of that lol.
Thank you for replying though, I hope so too xx

How did you get on @Wakeupsunshinex ? Did your temps stay up?
