My sister just sent me this. We have no idea what it is but any advice would be helpful. She’s been sick all day before passing this- fever, body aches/chills,headache and even has thrown up. Any idea if this is a possible miscarriage? We’re going in the morning to get a test but she has no idea if she was ever pregnant but I’m not sure what else this could be? Thanks.

Hoping you can help, I sadly had a missed miscarriage three weeks ago at 12 weeks whilst attending out harmony scan they confirmed the baby’s heart beat stopped. I went for a mva 3 weeks ago and I am still testing positive on a pregnancy stick even though the hospital said l am negative. We are trying to conceive again but we can’t do home tests as we don’t know if they’re staying positive from my hormones in the last pregnancy or the new one. I am ovulating as I am doing tests so I suppose my hcg levels are at 0. Can anyone help?

@arhar0119 sounds like she should go to A&E - hope she feels better now.

@Rach865 levels of HCG are highest around 11 weeks so when your pregnancy sadly passed, so it will take a while to normalised. I kept my tests and compared them to each other, the line kept getting thinner so that reassured me. It took over 6 weeks for me, I had a period and everything...! Just takes a while I think. It's different for losses that occur earlier, when hormone levels aren't that high.
