Ok I think I had a miscarriage about a
month ago. But was wondering I should be
about ten weeks pregnant if I took a
pregnancy test and it came out neg- is
there a chance that it is wrong. I am so
lost I don't know what to think. I had
went to the dr and all he did was listen
for a heart beat which there wasnt one but
he said that usually you wouldnt heat them
so early so there was no reason to worry
unless we couldnt hear it next time.
There was no exam or anything just put me
one vitamins. He wasnt the dr I had 1st
so maybe he doesnt know anything about my
bleeding. He couldve just look at the pg
test I took about 6 weeks ago. I have
taken two test both neg- so does that mean
the baby is gone I am calling my dr in the
am but I thought I could get some advice
now. Thank you to anyone who has some
input.

I'm sorry for what you are going
through.
The hormone that makes a positive
increases every day during the first few
weeks of pregnancy, reaches a peak at
about 9-10 weeks, and then gradually
tapers off, so much so, that you will
probably get a negative result for the
later part of pregnancy- the same hormone
is linked to morning sicknes, which is why
women are told they can expect to feel
better by 12 weeks- becuse the hormone
levels out by then.
So it's possible that you are still
pregnant, but it's only a really slight
chance, and with the bleeding and
everything, and no heartbeat.... It
doesn't look good. I hope I am wrong
though. Do you still feel pregnant?
Ask for an ultrasound. Then you'll know
for sure.
Good luck.

Yes I did have a pg test actually both
urine and blood the both were positive.
I just dont understand why now the test
would say neg- if the hormone stays in
your system for awhile. The test was a
first response. I just dont know what is
going on and I know I need to talk to a dr
which I will in the am but why is this
happening. I thank you for any advice!

It does tapper off though. Id
definately talk to Dr. At nine weeks it
is not common to get the heartbeat yet,
though sometimes they do, by 13 or 14
which should be next visit it will def
show, if not they will do u/s to find out
why. Why you do nuther preg test? Do
you not feel preg anymore?
I hope it all turns out good. Im praying
for you

Wait on!!!
When you started bleeding did you go to
the hospital to get an ultrasound to
confirm a miscarriage?
If not you could have experienced
implantation bleeding :)
i started bleeding and I was sure I had a
miscarriage but I didnt bother going to
the doctor or anything so I spent 11 weeks
not know wether I was still pregnant or
not only to find out at 16 weeks when I
got sick that I was carrying twins!!!!!
