Trying to Get Pregnant

Confused and unsure.

*posted on another forum also*

Earlier in August I miscarried. I was 11 weeks pregnant but baby only measured 9 with no heartbeat. I started spotting on the 2nd and saw the dr on the 7th. She did an ultrasound that confirmed everything had passed and I pretty much stopped bleeding by that point. She advised me that if i took a pregnancy test it may or may not come up positive. I waited and didn't take a test until that next Tuesday the 12th it was negative. I took a couple more of them during that week and last week all negative. Yesterday I decided to take another test. I had 3 Walmart 88 cent tests left. I used first morning urine and got a faint line. Waited a couple of hours and took another one with a faint line. I ended up taking the 3rd one got the same result. Went out and bought a First Response 3 pack, one digital, one early response and one rapid response in the pack. Took the digital and it said no -. Went ahead and first thing this morning took the early response and it has a faint line. I know digital yes or no aren't as sensitive. But could this be a new pregnancy? Would it be possible this soon? I did have negatives before these showed up positive.

  • QFP above without pics - 

    I'm sorry about your loss but this forum doesn't allow for posting of pregnancy tests. Also, as someone who has gone through a loss, you are likely still testing out HCG. Ask your OB for beta blood tests to see how much HCG is in your system rather than putting yourself through the hell of taking tests and wondering.

    Am I Pregnant?

    First thing: it is against the forum rules to ask if you are pregnant (straight forward or in a round about way) and to post pictures of HPTs asking about lines. A line is a line=pregnant. The only place you can post your HPT is What Does A Positive Test Look Like in First Tri. If you are looking for a success story, the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Trimester; Pregnant After Infertility or Pregnant After Loss boards are best suited for your question. We can not tell you if you are pregnant, so please don't ask. Take a test, if it's negative, lurk some more and get to know the community. If it's positive, congratulations, please move on to your BMB or First Tri and participate there.
