Pregnant after miscarriage

[freckles503]

Hello everyone. Sorry in advance for the long post. I had a MMC at 8 weeks last October. I am now pregnant again (3 weeks 6 days). The line was very faintly positive at 3 weeks 1 day and has been getting a little darker but not a ton. Last pregnancy, the lines got darker every day so I’m a little worried. I did a first response digital and it said “yes+”. I then did a clear blue 3 days a part with the most recent being yesterday and both said not pregnant. The lines are obviously positive on the first response. I’m having so much anxiety that the lines aren’t getting darker fast enough. My last pregnancy that resulted in MC was my only pregnancy so I don’t have anything else to compare it to. Anyone else have lines that don’t seem to be getting much darker and had a successful pregnancy? I’m really surprised and disappointed the clear blue still isn’t positive :/. Thanks in advance.

I also had an MMC at 8 weeks in October, and an pregnant again. All I'd say is: settle in! It'll be this, then pants checking, then trying to find your fungus which is where I'm at . It's so early for a digital test, I think I tested positive at over four weeks. The odds are so overwhelmingly in your favour - I wish I'd seen this a few weeks ago rather than spend all of March and april in a tailspin!

Thank you for the reassurance. Lol I hope I don’t have to deal with fungus 🤣. I’m already checking after I wipe every time I go to the bathroom 🥴. The anxiety is real. Congrats to you :). One day at a time is what I keep trying to tell myself.

That is really all you can do! It's really hard but I have had many moments of happiness and contentedness over the past while too, so it won't always feel this way

Thank you so much! It’s nice to talk to someone who has pretty much gone through the exact same thing!

Hey :) Is there any update?

I took a pregnancy test this am and it was pretty much negative😔. I finally convinced the midwife to order an hcg. It’s 5.9. I’m pretty sure I’m having a chemical pregnancy but haven’t started bleeding yet. The next hcg will be in 72 hrs. The midwife made me feel crazy last night on the phone asking me why I was testing every day🥺. It’s hard not to when you have a previous MC :/.

Final update. Started bleeding and cramping today so I am in fact having a chemical pregnancy. 😢

I'm so sorry. Its such a tough journey. Sending love 💐

@freckles503 I’m so sorry 😞 My lines not progressing quickly either and I’ve had 3 chemicals so far this would be my fourth so I know what you’re going through ♥️Hope you’re okay 🥺🥺🥺
