Does anyone know how long the +'s will last after miscarrying ?

I POAS this morning (don't ask why .. it was just sitting here so I figured I'd just use it to get it out of my sight ), and the line was super dark .. darker then they were when I first got my positive.

Mine are still showing a slight + and it's been about two weeks or so. They are very faint though. With my 14w loss they showed + till about two weeks after but were very light.

If they are still dark I would call yor DR and request either an u/s to make sure the uterus is clear and/or blood work to make sure your levels are dropping.

I have to ask are you positive you miscarried? Is it possible this is a new pregnancy?

I have heard of HPT's staying positive for a little while until the hcg goes out of your system (which also affects when you can start TTC again...)

But, it seems like if it is that dark, I would maybe have your doctor run some blood tests to check your levels.

Hope that kinda helps. Please KUP!

i week after my m/c I was positive, 3 wks, negative. hope that helps

i think it depends on how far a long you were, too.
i was 7.5 weeks with my m/c and i was getting BFPs more than a week afterward. i just kept testing to see if i still had hcg in my system.

i would def go to the dr and get your levels check again. If your test is getting darker then you might have not m/c, just a thought.

I had a m/c the month before I got preggo with my daughter, it was an early one and the HPTs just kept getting lighter, not darker. Good luck!

Thanks ladies!

I was 5 weeks, 3 days along.

Update - took another HPT this morning (FRER) and it was a BFN ! Not even the slightest line.
Took another one right before dinner (CBED) NOT PREGNANT!

I am happy (I know that sounds weird..) But I am. I read up on it and it takes some women 4-6 weeks to get a negative HPT after having a miscarriage .. So I'm glad that my body was able to "dismiss" of everything on it's own. I'm no longer bleeding.. (tmi) I've been all day without a pad. I'm really hoping that my body looks at this as a period , and that I'll O in 2 weeks or so !!

Thanks for all the advice and support

Glad you got BFN and stopped bleeding!

Here's hoping you O in 2 weeks and get a super sticky bean!

Thank you so much!
