I had a d&c about 5 weeks ago. My partner and I held off sex as suggested by doc for two weeks. We then didn't really have a lot of sex maybe 4 times, one of the first times my partner didn't pull out. We didn't use protection tho.
Silly now thinking about it as I wanted to wait Atleast a full cycle before ttc.
Fast forward a week ago I started my period right on schedule but it lasted a day or two shorter then usual. It wasn't heavy but wasn't light.
Today while I went shopping I picked up some tests for the future got home and for some reason just felt like I wanted to pee on one.
It came back positive. Now I'm nervous because while this could be potentially want we wanted (baby) It's why the tell you to wait. I could have retained tissue? Can you get a "period" and still have hcg levels? And if it is the best thing ever a baby then I have no lmp to go off meaning this could feel very drawn out and stressful to wait for a good us.
Sorry for the novel I'm not sure if this is best place to post I guess any feedback will be good. I'm
Going to wait to see a doctor, not ready for what they have to say yet.
Wow, thanks for the drive-by BFP. You obviously didn't read the sticky post at the top.
First, if your doctor did not follow your HCG levels to 0 you could be turning a test from the last pregnancy. You could have retained tissue and yes, you can have a period when your levels are not at 0.
Second, if you had unprotected sex (which the pull-out method is) then this could be a new pregnancy.
Third, if you wanted to have a normal cycle before trying again then condoms or BC would have been a better choice.
Fourth, if you are pregnant again, don't come back and tell us.

Listen, OP, I get that you're wrapped up in your own situation right now, but you just barged in on a group of grieving ladies and waved your positive pregnancy test in our faces. We're not unforgiving, we are hurting. And you're clearly not sorry. Bye now.
Unforgiving? The ladies answered your question. What you posted was kind of like walking into a room of grieving ladies while holding a positive pee stick and announcing your bfp. Think about it. That's very hurtful.
Good luck to you OP, but like @wickedsugar said, an apology does wonders here. I do hope you don't have retained tissue. You should call your doctor.
I am really sincerely sorry. By unforgiving I meant I got what the first person wrote I didn't have to hear it again and again. I should have read before posting and clearly a novice since I didn't realise you can't delete.
Please delete my post or At least the title so not everybody can see it. I tried to remove it to not cause anymore hurt instead you attacked me more.
That's not why I want it removed... I don't care about the answers I got I was looking for more anyone in same situation for support not so much answers written badly and now I see totally wrong board and in sorry stupid mistake
I want it deleted because I don't want anyone else to read and get hurt or offended I totally see where you are coming from ...

1) you do care about the responses because you've come back here multiple times to tell us why we are wrong and why you are right.
2) there is no right board for this. All of the TTC boards frown on drive by BFPs so posting a pee stick and asking if you are pregnant wont be welcomed anywhere.
3) we can't possibly know whether you are pregnant, have residual HCG or retained tissue. If your HPT is possible then you need to contact your doctor and find out if it's a new pregnancy or not.
4) If it is a new pregnancy head straight to the 1st tri boards.
I tried to remove it to not cause anymore hurt instead you attacked me more.
We are not attacking you. Think of it this way. You will get flamed no matter where you post this story...
First: Because you have not taken any time to get to know us. There is culture of people and friendship on each board. No board on TB is your google or personal instant answer board. We are ALL a community of women going thorough things. This board is a little more sensitive than others because we are all grieving mothers - which is why your post is met with hostility.
Second: We get you're going through your own shit storm right now, but no one in the universe has an answer for you and your body except your doctor. Call them. Now!
Third: Your apology was not sincere. I believe you believe it was sincere, but it wasn't a sincere apology. A sincere apology might look something like this: "Oh man, I really screwed up. So sorry to you ladies. I should have read the sticky posts and now I realize I really picked the wrong board for this post, and in fact, this isn't a post for any board since I need to talk to my Dr. Wishing you all the best, and again, sorry for any hurt I've caused."
Yours wasn't because you continually tried to defend yourself and make it seem like you needed forgiveness for your mistake, instead of just saying you screwed up and that you were sorry.
Hope you have learned something. And in all complete seriousness, (because I truly do care about others) I hope you get everything figured out and get some answers soon, because being stuck in unknowing land sucks the big one.
