*~*~* The Decemberists! *~*~*

OK ladies, need help. Took a hpt a couple weeks ago wich was negative, went to my follow up appointment Monday which showed HCG levels at 15 and ulrasound tech said it looked like I may have already ovulated. Well been having symptoms and took 2 hpt today and BFPs. First was after about a 4 hour hold and second one was about 30 mins later. So now I don't know if it they were false positives from left over HCG that didn't drop for some reason or if they are real BFPs. Both were VERY dark. I'm confused and terrified:nope: Help
 
Well to me that would indicate strong BFP, but I have no experience with concieving after a mc. Can you speak to your doctor about it asap? :hugs::hugs::hugs: Deep breath!
 
Mini - hope you're feeling better. Sounds like a great approach you are taking, your reasoning totally makes sense! Thank you for sharing with us! Cannot believe the NHS expects you to go through 3 losses before they offer any help :nope:
 
They are closed until Monday. I mean I guess I could call their answering serves, but I don't really think this qualifies as an emergency. I even check the local pregnancy testing center to see if I could just get a quick HCG check and they are closed till Monday as well grrrrrrrrrrrr
 
Hope you manage to speak to someone DS. Seems like it is a bfp so hopefully you get it confirmed soon xxxx
 
It is possible for HCG to go back up during a MC - it happened to me last year but the levels were a lot higher AND I was still bleeding. Did you ever have a negative test before? 15 would be enough for some tests although it depends which ones. I had a VERY faint positive (almost a shadow) with an internet cheapy when my HCG was 50 so if its a strong positive on these its much more likely to be 200+.

So, if I had to put money on it I'd say its a BFP! I have a friend who was caught the first month after - you are supposed to be mega fertile so its entirely possible. (Plus it would explain your post the other day about feeling lethargic!).

Yes I had a negative hpt a couple weeks ago and these were VERY dark, like darker than control line on the first one and almost if not as dark as contrlo line that I took just 30 mins later.
 
When my hcg level was around 15 my tests were barely positive. I don't think your levels would rise enough during a mc to get a super dark positive like you say you have. I think it's likely you're pregnant again!
 
Wow ladies I've missed so much! Never on BnB anymore!

Mini, the approach you are taking sounds great. I'm glad that the lady you saw was optimistic. :hugs:

DS, I would imagine it's a new pregnancy, too, but I agree -- deep breaths and call your OB! <3
 
DS how did you get on at the doctors!

Hope all is well!
 
Any news ds? How are you doing?

Smawfl- saw your ticker! Exciting times :happydance:

I've started temping just so I can pinpoint ov ready for next month
 
I actually think the ticker is a day out as I think I'm OV today..

I got a positive OPK yesterday (CD12) and the day before and it's negative today, hoping to see temp shift in the morning to confirm ov. We shall see.

I'm a bit rusty, when does OV usually occur after a positive OPK??

I'm not entirely sure but I think when I used them last time around I got a positive a couple of days before OV
 
I just looked back at my pregnancy FF chart, and we DTD about 4 days in a row over OV :wacko: Not quite sure we have that stamina now after having a toddler! :dohh: Hopefully we've caught it :wacko:
 
Don't really have any news yet since I won't get my test results until tom, but my ob and nurse clearly seem to think it is a new pregnancy! Should be confirmed tom and then have a second blood draw wed to make sure levels are going up like they should and then we just go from there. Ugh I'm so nervous! I can't even be excited because I'm too guarded out of fear I will lose this one too. Keep your fingers crossed for me ladies.
 
Everything is crossed DS. Stay positive and try to relax if you can.

Well I definitely ov yesterday as has a nice temp rise this morning. Didn't dtd yesterday so hopefully the day before we caught. We'll see.

When do symptoms start?!
 
My symptoms with the one I lost last month started as soon as a week later with pinching type cramps. GOOD LUCK!!! Hopefully y'all caught it!
