9 weeks for me. Ended up going for blood tests every 2 days to check it wasn't a new pregnancy.

Sorry for your loss ❤️

I was told to check after 3 weeks and it was negative then x

I’m the same where I have faint positive and a late period. Faint positive has been there since 4 weeks. If you’re concerned go see your GP. They can refer you for bloods. My concern is there is matter left which will prevent us from conceiving. Best of luck

Mine took 3 weeks! It was the longest wait ever. Hoping you get your bfn soon xxx.

Here is a poll on how long it has taken other ladies to get their bfns after miscarriage - you click on the answers and it shows the average number of weeks. Pretty cool!: mcandbeyond.weebly.com/some-fun-polls.html

I was told if I was still getting a positive after four weeks I needed to go back to hospital in case there was anything left.
So sorry for your loss Thanks

I had surgical management on 7 May (3 weeks and 1 day ago), I was told to do a pregnancy test after 3 weeks and call EPU if it was positive. Did a clearblue this morning which said 'pregnant 1-2 weeks'. Called EPU and they just said wait another week and call again if still positive. I'm still bleeding on and off. They said bleeding could last up to four weeks. Kind of feel like they fobbed me off today. I'm 40, really want to have another baby (have a 3 yo) but all this waiting and delay is just awful. I thought it would be over with after SMM and I would be able to move on, but that's not the case.

2-3 weeks

Did a test yday was darker and another today even darker again!! Wat is going on??!! Is it possible could be a new pregnancy???

I was told to test 2 weeks later and call them to go back if it's still positive.

My sac came out whole though and I had it to show them.

Mine took around 11 days to 2 weeks after 'natural' miscarriages at home. I think if I had tests getting darker I would definitely get checked out to see if it's a new pregnancy. Sorry for everyone going through this it's really shitty.

Has anyone still experienced pregnancy symptoms after miscarriage? I miscarried at 6weeks, the hospital took a PT and it showed negative...I’m now 4weeks after miscarriage and my boobs are heavy. I’ve taken another test in case of new pregnancy but it’s negative. Is this just part of the process?! Xxx

I was 7 weeks preg when I started bleeding and a scan showed I was only measuring about 5 weeks. I started bleeding heavily on the 8th of june which stopped on 14th. I had felt my pregnancy symptoms disappearing a few days before I started spotting and I defo didnt feel pregnant any more. I did a really cheap home pregnancy test which gave me a negative on the 17th of june 2019.
I'm not keen on using the ovulation kits because I know I would get obsessed and I dont want to stress myself out about it... but think going by some symptoms, I ovulated about the 21st/22nd june.
Really hoping I'm one of the lucky ones and fall pregnant straight away again but time will tell. So frustrating!!

@trex28

They did say to me that if I did get another period then It would probably be a lot heavier and more painful than normal. If ur getting negative test with those symptoms its maybe ur body gearing up for a really heavy one. Oh to be a woman 🙄🙄

TRex28 · 10/07/2019 20:39

You was right! Worse period followed 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’ve just had my first ovulation so fingers crossed I’m lucky and fall again xx
