Question

5 days of bleeding but super positive bfp. Can I still be pregnant or was it miscarriage?

I got very strong bfp at 4 weeks on clearblue digital- pregnant 2-3 weeks. At 5 weeks 4 days (I think) I started bleeding and went to ER. They did blood test, urine test, external and internal ultrasound. Hcg was at 685 which they said was low. Said they didn't see anything in uterus, but I wonder if it was too early. They couldn't rule out ectopic but thought it was probably a miscarriage and sent me home. My dr didn't see a point to get hcg level again. Now after 5 days of bleeding, it has stopped. I still feel very pregnant. I took a frer and it was very dark plus a clearblue digital that said pregnant 2-3 weeks. Should I force dr to do my hcg or wait another week and retest? What are the odds I still am pregnant with a healthy baby? Dr said it could be a couple weeks until levels go down.

I have a two year old. Nothing like this with his pregnancy.

Hi, Really sorry to hear this! Hope you are doing ok. I have heard that if you have a miscarriage it can show positive for a while as the pregnancy hormones are still in your body. Might be worth waiting a week atleast and then testing. Also if it still shows the same I think you should go and see your gp and ask him to run some tests to see what your levels are currently. If it is a miscarriage the levels should be coming down steadily rather than going up. Take care and get some rest if you can.
