Help advice please

[BerniceA]

Hi ladies
I have been trying for a baby since we had a mc 5 months ago this month we used opk and got our smiley in the afternoon on 2/3 I tested the day my period was due and got the faintest line but the next day 17/3 started bleeding assumed AF thought mayb a chemical the bleeding lasted 7 days 2 longer than usual was lighter than a period for the first 2 days then only when I wiped for the next 5 I had no cramps or pain no clots n was a light red/pink colour. I still had symptoms so tested again using first response was still faintly positive then retested again it got a bit darker ..i test this morning with FRR it was a lil darker again and I did a clear blue which says 1-2 weeks?? I'm going to my epu in the morning I'm praying everything is okay.. could that bleed have been implantation? But why would the CB be only saying 1-2 weeks? Any advice please? I'm scared I'm going to have another mc

CB are the work of the devil and should be banned.
It may be that it hasn't moved on because there is a problem, otherwise may be that conception was a day or two later than you think or hcg might be rising slowly.
I'm afraid none of us can tell and I know the waiting is horrid. But equally the hcg range that's normal for each point in early pregnancy is so wide, eg 40mIU/cc would be normal for 3, 4 or 5 weeks.
3 weeks: 5-50 mIU/cc
4 weeks: 4-426 mIU/cc
5 weeks: 19-7,340 mIU/cc
6 weeks: 1,080-56,500 mIU/cc
7 - 8 weeks: 7,650-229,000 mIU/cc

But there are no end of threads on here from women worried sick when the test doesn't move on when they hoped.

Fingers crossed for you

I’m 25 weeks now and I never got a clear blue past 2-3 weeks. As PP says they’re awful! They just causes more stress than anything. A lot of people use them for reassurance but I’ve seen so many people post about issues with them it’s almost counter productive.

As PP says it could be it hasn’t progressed because something is wrong but it could be just that they’re crap tests! Try and stay relaxed / rested take it easy and see what happens. I’d step away from using them because they just increase anxiety in my experience (I’ve had 3 miscarriages so understand why your so worried)

I agree that CB indicators are the work of the devil. Mine stuck on the same level (2-3) for 10 days and I’ve given up on them.

EPU may do hcg tests to see if they double (or there abouts) in 48 hours but at just 5 weeks I doubt a scan will provide much reassurance as there will be so little to see even if things are progressing normally.

Thank you all for your replies.. I'm just so confused about it all.. the bleeding the positive tests that keep getting darker then the cb but guess il just have to wait and see what they say tomorrow.. have any of you experienced anything like this? X
