I would ring up your epu to answer this. I really wouldn't have thought so personally.

I'm really sorry it is dragging on for you.

Hi arena,

I had a positive test the day before my period was arrived, (4 weeks post missed miscarriage.)

I don't know how this was possible.

How are you doing?

sausagemcgrah · 11/12/2008 14:28

Nice grammar me!

Hi sausagemcgrah can i ask you if the test you took before your period was it a strong postive or faint.

Cos i have now being on/off slight pink bleeding for 2 days now, and still testing a very strong postive.

I'm going to see the doctor on monday. Can't believe i can still be testing at gone 5 weeks after m/c. I was 7 weeks when i m/c.

I can't remember to be honest as I didn't test post MC, but did they do a scan when you MCed?

merrylissiemas · 11/12/2008 20:42

i would ring up epu asap tbh. how many weeks were you when you mc'd? did you have a scan?

merrylissiemas · 11/12/2008 20:43

could it be a new pg?

arena · 11/12/2008 20:51

Hi guys thanks for getting back to me, yes they did do a scan the first scan was on the 3rd of nov to confirm m/c, then on the 4th nov the next day the sac had passed. Then i had to go back on the 17th nov for another scan to make sure everything had passed, and they said that everything looked good.

Merrylissiemas well it could be another pregnancy, i will let you guys no the out come.

Hi again arena,

It had got much fainter the day before my period was due, but still quite clear and well within the time limit. I wonder whether yours is a new pregnancy? Fingers crossed for you, and let us know.

arena · 11/12/2008 21:31

Thanks sausaemcgrah, i did a clear blue this morning and the line was so strong, the more im thinking about it i think it may be a new pregnancy, maybe im having implantation bleeding, or it could be another m/c for me.

Well it has to be one or the other, im going to the doctors on monday, so i will report back. Thanks for getting back to me.
