How soon after miscarriage did you get BFN? Only had 3 days of bleeding??

[Nannon145]

I had a miscarriage at 5/6 weeks. I'd already had quite a lot of bleeding/spotting at 4 weeks but then got stronger positives after this, I've just had 3 days of bleeding and the tests are practically negative now.
Is 3 days of bleeding enough for a complete miscarriage????

Also, how soon after your miscarriage did you conceive again?

Bump

Not sure re the amount of bleeding as I had MMC at 11-12 weeks and bled for longer but then it was later. I got BFN around 2 weeks after the final scan conforming everything had passed, which was maybe 3-4 weeks after the start of the miscarriage. Sorry for your loss and best of luck 🌈

@ellenpartridge thank you

Had a very very very very very very faint line on a FRER this morning. Am I right in thinking that over the next few days this will disappear? There is no chance that this will ever get darker?

I'm only asking because I don't really want to waste another pregnancy test to see it be negative but then if I am fortunate to get pregnant straight away, I want to be certain that it is a new pregnancy so there is no way a pregnancy test can get darker after a miscarriage unless you are pregnant again??? Hope this makes sense.

I don't think it would get darker again. Could be worth getting a cheap pack of strip tests from Amazon if you want to test to a full BFN without wasting FRER.

Should have said the EPU here want confirmation you've had a BFN. If you keep getting faint BFP it can potentially be a sign of something retained and you may need to be rescanned so I would still want to do another test in a few days if I were you just to be sure. Good luck.
