Possible BFP?
My first pregnancy ended as a missed miscarriage. I was meant to be 9 weeks when the loss happened but our angel stopped growing at 6 weeks. The loss gapped 3 weeks ago yesterday and went for a week. Today I took a test and it came up positive. Can it be left over hcg from my previous pregnancy?
I've been super emotional and bloated the past week...

I mean happened not gapped lol. The line is faint
Sorry for your loss. The same happened to me too last July. 10 weeks but the heart had stopped at 7 weeks
its very possible that the line is left over from your Mc. They say to ensure a negative test before starting to try again. It would in my opinion too early for a new pregnancy but stranger things have happened. Your body so t ovulate until hcg is zero. Wait a few more days and test again. If it gets darker then it's likely it's a new pregnancy. Good luck x
I had a chemical pregnancy and I was told that once the period after the bleed of losing baby came, you have ovulated so I'm not sure if it's the same for an actual miscarraige. But I had bleeding once the cells passed. And then 2 weeks later I had a proper bleed and now AF is late..all I know is my friend fell pregnant 6 weeks after miscarraige so I guess it depends on bodies? Good luck!!!
That's correct Cheryl... you won't have a period unless you ovulate and you won't ovulate if hcg is still present. It takes longer after a miscarriage for some ladies for the hcg to level down. With a chemical they pass with the usual period as it's an unimplanted egg and generally only picked up on with early testing so the hcg is never really massively high anyway.
Thanks for clearing that up for me hun. Here's to hoping my faint line last week is in fact a bfp. Testing tomorrow. I had a period 2 weeks before that and now I'm feeling all funny haha. We shall see!
Good luck x
Thank you!!!
