Faint line

I'm wondering if anyone could help me I had a miscarriage early last month I had a bleed a week ago it wasn't heavy or light so I thought it could be my period I've been feeling unwell and I've started rejecting food like I did last time so I've taken a early detection test and there is a faint line could it be the old pregnancy or a new one my emotions are all over Xx

Sorry to hear about your MC. I am still testing positive 17 days after my MC, I guess it's hard to say really, all depends on your HCG levels/how high they got etc. did you stop bleeding for a while before getting what you assume is your period? I guess the best way would just be to track over the next few days to see if the line gets darker, I know how difficult the waiting is though 😞

I'm sorry about your loss I'm sending baby dust your way🤍 and yeah I stopped bleeding a week after my d&c kept testing negative and then I had a bleed I still didn't feel too good so I took a test and it was positive but I don't want to really get my hopes up I'm going to try and ring the doctors see if they can get me some bloods done xx

Thankyou 💖 That seems like good news if you tested negative prior to this positive. I absolutely understand you about not getting your hopes up though, do they seem to have gotten darker over the last day or 2? I think bloods would be the best option for you to confirm. I really hope this is it for you, baby dust also ✨

I haven't taken another one since do you think I should do so I'm hoping it's a new pregnancy 🤍

If you have any left I would be inclined to do one as in theory it should have gotten a tad darker, it's been 2 or 3 days since you last tested? But at the same time it could add to your stress if they aren't too sensitive and don't darken quickly. It's a tough one!

Had my bloods done she said my hcg levels are at a three so potentially could be a new pregnancy and I'll have to wait to see if my period comes next week Xx

Sorry about the late reply I got my test back my levels are at 3 so she basically said she couldn't tell if I was pregnant or not because your levels have to be at a 5 my period is due in a week and I'm still feeling nauseous so I don't know if I show wait it out and do another test or what Xx
