what tf is going on 😩

I need a “confused af” flair.

Anyway, I had a D&C for a MMC @6w4d on 3/9. I tested out my HCG with e@h, and frer. I got negatives on e@h around 3/29-4/1, and negative on frer like 4/12 i think…? On 4/13 mt HCG was 3 per lab work. I got my period 4/14-4/17, no bleeding 4/18 or 4/19. I start bleeding and cramking again today. I’m confused.

I took a FRER today bc I’m insane and it’s positive…? Vvvvvvlf.
I’m assuming it’s nothing viable bc of the amount of bleeding/ cramping I’m having.
Could it be Another chemical…? Normally with my chemicals I test negative when I start bleeding…?
I am so f**kin confused.

I’m looking for similar stories or something. This has been such a wild ride.

I’m calling my DR first thing tmr for blood work, and I’m going to ask for a scan bc this is hella weird.

@ghillie Is it possible the bleeding 4/14-17 was implantation bleeding?

I had a similar story.. i miscarried naturally in mid December. I tracked my HCG all the way down to 11 from 27,000. It took 5 weeks. I was also tracking ovulation bc i wanted to try again right away, before my period. I started getting negative tests too right around when my HCG was 11, then i ovulated 3 days later. I was getting negative HCG tests until 9dpo i started to have a faint line again. Got my HCG checked and it was at a 10… 2 weeks after my last draw which was an 11. At 15dpo it had only risen to 35.. so my doctors believed it was retained tissue and not a new pregnancy, though i KNEW it was new (likely a chemical, but still). I’ve been tracking my cycles for years. I’m not new to this. I was getting negative HCG tests UNTIL the time that anyone might start seeing a positive. They didn’t believe me and scared me into a D&C a few days later. I was so upset but i knew that pregnancy was likely not going to be viable. And i ended up feeling so much better afterwards, like a weight lifted off my shoulders, but i sometimes still wonder.. then i let myself have one period before trying again and now im 2dpo hoping for a positive next week. I feel like my body just was not ready to try and get pregnant again. Hopefully now it’s been enough time.

The best thing to do is have some repeat labs done so you can see which way HCG is trending. Hugs

@lkl The on call OB said maybe it was BUT my bleeding was very much so period like - it wasn’t light, it was heavy, filling tampons in 2-4hrs heavy w/ cramps from hell.

I’m going in tmr for blood work on Monday and probably again on Wednesday - but for sure Thursday if not Wednesday.

I have vvvvvvvvvvvv low hopes for this pregnancy being viable. The test is so so faint. I just want my body back to normal
