Hi everyone,

A little back story. I had a missed miscarriage on the 9th July. I could not stop bleeding so ended up in hospital, they did an internal scan and ascertained that no pregnancy tissue was left, but some clots, which I then passed. A week later on the 15th, when bleeding had all but stopped my hcg levels were 150. This Tuesday (6th August) I took a pregnancy test as instructed by the hospital and it was negative. The past couple of days I have been having what could be PMS or early pregnancy symptoms, no period has arrived so this morning I took another pregnancy test. It is positive. A faint but definite positive, no squinting required! I rang EPU and they told me to got to GP for blood test on Monday. This is going to be a long long few days. I feel very anxious after last missed MC and don’t want to get my hopes up on case it is leftover pregnancy hormones. I have so many feelings that I am actually a bit numb.

Fingers crossed for you! Given that you’ve had a negative test in the meantime I’d be cautiously optimistic.
I had an early miscarriage in April last year and immediately fell pregnant again. He’s currently 6 months old and fast asleep on me.
