Testing positive after a bleed

[journolady]

I'm wading through this horrible limbo land and wondered if anyone can share their experience.
According to premom ovulation tests, I peaked v early, day 9 of my cycle. We did the deed the morning after the peak, on the 12th of March and by the 24th, I got 'pregnant' on clear blue. I started to bleed on the 30th. It wasn't light, just like a period to be honest and included some small but v noticeable clots. I chalked this up as an early loss/ chemical. The bleeding stopped after 3 days. I'm continuing to test positive, and have progressed from 1-2 weeks to 2-3 on clear blue. If going by my last period, which was march the 3rd, Im not even 5 weeks yet and assumed the tests would turn negative very quickly at such an early stage. I know there's nothing I can do but wait, has anyone experienced this?

I had similar, although I hadn't tested so didn't know I was pregnant. I had what I assumed was a period about 3.5 weeks after my last period, it lasted 4 days and was almost as heavy as my normal periods, assumed I wasn't pregnant and carried on TTC the following month. Tested about 3 weeks later because I felt pregnant and got a very strong positive, thought I must have ovulated early but was happy I was pregnant.

During that time I did have another light bleed about 2 weeks after the fake period - thought this might be ovulation bleeding! And about a week after I tested positive I had another light bleed - enough to fill a pad but stopped within an hour.

Anyway, went for what was supposed to be an 8 week scan and found out I was 12 weeks. I'm 30 weeks now and everything's looking good, so assume those bleeds were just heavy implantation bleeding.

My friend had similar she bled what she thought was a period but tested after she had a weird next period..went for 12 weeks scan was actually 16 weeks. If your HCG is still rising it's either an ongoing pregnancy or could be a growing empty sack- I had this but no bleeding. Only way to know for sure is an early scan.

I had bleeding and cramping for a week having tested positive.. assumed a miscarriage.

Did another test the following month, bfp.

Managed to get a scan and I was 10 weeks pregnant.
