I think I’m pregnant with my rainbow baby but I feel confused/cautious!!
I had a very early (<5weeks) miscarriage on 5th dec. I only ever got 1 positive test on a sensitive test 4 days after my period was due. Bleeding started day after and I had 2 regular tests that were negative the day after then 1 week later.
During this new cycle I had 2 positive ovulation tests at cd14 and 18 so presuming was the later. More ovulation symptoms than normal so we did wonder about hyper ovulation.
my temperature dropped a bit after miscarriage but never below cover line and my boobs stayed sore. So I decided to do a test at 9dpo just to completely exclude the chance that pregnancy had continued but slow to rise hcg. We were fully expecting a negative as it was a regular test and done so early. We thought the only chance of a positive is if last time was actually only a threatened miscarriage in which case we’d get a strong result now 3 weeks later! We figured it would either be (unlikely) very positive (it continued) or completely negative (as we were only pregnant for less than 5 weeks so hcg would drop fast)
But in fact we got a weak positive. Followed up with a sensitive 6 day early digital test which confirmed pregnancy though it’s not showing on a regular ‘how many weeks’ digital test yet.
i think it must be a new pregnancy as can’t see how I’d have 2 negative tests soon after miscarriage then a faint positive now. Especially as the first test I did wasn’t a sensitive one. I also had smell aversion over the turkey on Xmas day and cried over a song 4x!
but I still just have a niggling doubt! Probably nerves after last time!
we have family visiting tonight for our engagement meal and usually my fiancés parents live abroad so today is our only chance to tell them face to face which would be so special!
however we do we want to be really sure it’s a positive before we do (happy not to wait til 12 weeks for close family though as I needed family support last miscarriage)
Any thoughts? Or similar experiences? Should we tell them?
And showing so early on a cheapy test +hyper ovulation symptoms, could we be expecting twins?!!
