Ok Ladies... Im Wigged out over this!
Mid October, I had a D&C after my OB found a blood clot in my uterus, I was 5wks, 6days according to the US done that day.
Now I have read somewhere that you can still have the hormone HCG for up to 8weeks after a pregnancy. Is that true, or could I possibly be looking at a true Positive test right now??

The bleeding that i had from the D&C lasted about a week,and seem to have normal CM again and literatly 2 days ago thought that I had a bladder infection becuse my lower abdomen and back had some pretty signifigant cramping that went away in about a day.

I did the deed on Friday, and have ALWAYS shown ++ very early ( with my 2 others at 7DPO)

So today is that 7th day.
PLEASE... could I be preg so soon???? the ++ is pretty faint, but defenitally came up in about 1minute.
Has anyone had this happen?

Hi. I just wanted to let you know that I had a M/C 2/21/04. I waited and waited for my period to come and finally tested after 6 weeks. The test came back positive. I was concerned and called my dr's office and they said it's possible to still be from the M/C but HIGHLY unlikely. Sure enough after taking my hcg levels every other day for a week, it was confirmed (they kept going up) that I was in fact pregnant. I had my daughter 11/27/04 (she was actually due on 12/5). So yes, it's a possiblity you are pregnant. I hope everything works out the way you want it!

I have heard a few times that people are more fertile right after a mc. I would wait 2 days and test again and see if the test gets darker. Or call your ob. HTHS
