Well, I tested. I have no self control at all. I went to the grocery store and picked up a pack of ept's. I didn't have the energy to drive all the way into town to go to the dollar store but I'll go there tomorrow. Anyway, it was a BFP. It was pretty light but the line showed up within the time limit. I can't find my good camera and tried to scan it, then I tried to take a stillshot with the video camera but neither came out.
So that really doesn't tell me much though because the doc never confirmed that my hcg was back down to 0 post m/c. Also I can't compare if the line is getting darker. I should have tested with FMU but I have no self control. I bought the EPT's and decided to test knowing that I have been drinking buckets of water because I've been so thirsty and I went pee just 1 hour ago. Who knows, maybe it's just an evap. I do feel pregnant though...
When Travis comes home tonight I'll see if he knows where the camera is and I'll post the pics. I am so confused right now. AHHH

That's awesome.

I started spotting on 1/19 and passed the baby on 1/22. I had an u/s that confirmed all tissue passed but was supposed to go back last week to confirm all hcg dropped to below 5. I didn't go though. I haven't had my first af yet... Yikes. I really don't know what to think. I'll test again tomorrow morning but I guess that won't tell me too much either. Maybe I'll go in for a blood draw tomorrow after all.

Yeah, I think the blood test might be the best. I wouldn't even know how to figure out how far along you would be right now!

I do agree that a blood test is best. It will definitely show whether you're having a new pregnancy or your levels still haven't dropped. Like I said before, I hope this is a true BFP for you!!!

Here is the thing. I really think my hcg was below 5 already. My 2 m/c were almost identical. With my 1st m/c my hcg was at 16,278 and within 7 days all hcg was down to below 5. With the last m/c my hcg counts on 1/23 were 1,323. I would think that within 2 weeks all hcg would have dropped compared to my last m/c since they were sooo similiar. Just speculation.

LOL Em, I knew you would make post them. Well, I still can't find my good camera. It might be in my car so these are the best stillshots I could take with my video camera. They aren't real clear though. Strange thing is that today's is a little lighter than yesterdays although I tested at 7:00 and did get up at 2:00 to pee in the night. I just don't really know what to think. Maybe my hcg is just going down. I'll go in for bloodwork to tell for sure. Maybe today and Monday.
yesterday
this morning
