Almost negative pregnancy test after mmc???

[c beary83]

How long did it take for your pregnancy test to go negative? I had my miscarriage last Tuesday (would have been 13 weeks but baby died at 9).

I was expecting at least three weeks but I did one today ( my pee was a bit diluted) and got this ? I was expecting much darker

Hey cb sorry for ur loss hun xx I miscarried on 25 august & my tests dropped down very quickly like urs but I'm cd32 today and still getting a squinter line as I have a small bit retained placenta! That's a fab sign urs are dropping so well - if u test every 48 hours now they shud get lighter and lighter til its completely gone. It's so weird wanting blank tests after always wanting positive tests hey. Hope it goes blank soon xx

Hey sunshine. I'm sorry for your losses its so hard. We saw a hb at 8 and a half weeks

I hope you don't mind me asking but did you have a scan to show the retained placenta? And what have they suggested you do to make sure it clears?

I'm really worried that it's not all gone for infections and I just want it all to be over so we can get back to some kind of normal

Thank u hun xxx It's so much harder when u see a hb hun isn't it just heart breaking xx I had a scan 2 weeks after mc to see if mc was complete and I had 2cm piece of placenta left. They said the piece would either come out with another contraction or would come out in next af. Yesterday I started bleeding sorry for tmi bright red blood and I thought yipee af is here but it stopped after 11 hours and nothing since and now I'm wondering was it the retained placenta dissolved and whether I shud expect af in about a month - it's awful having no idea what is going on! Re infection they said I would know if it was as horrid discharge / foul smelling yuk. I have nothing like that thank goodness. I think urs seems on track hun u could test again in 2 or 3 days and compare the lines and u shud hopefully see it gone lighter again or gone as it has gone so light already. Fingers crossed hun xx

Sorry for your loss. I'm at 5 weeks post and getting a faint positive still. You are lucky, I am very frustrated with mine. My nurse said it's normal so I'm not worried. Just wish my cycle would come already.

I had my d&c 4 weeks ago yesterday and I'm still getting very very faint shadow like lines on my tests. It is annoying but I'm sure I ovulate about 5 days ago so I'm expecting a period or a stronger bfp in about 7 days. Sorry for your loss it's good that your levels are going down quite fast though my hpts were quite dark for about 3 weeks
