Pregnancy Info HOME

mellissa- I should probably buy stock in the company that makes First Response HPT’s because I just can’t stand to wait. I took another one last night and got the very faintest of lines for a result line, and it took 3 minutes for it to show up at all. That was 17 day’s post D&C, so now if in two weeks I don’t get my period, and I get a nice positive HPT test, I can be almost certain that I’m pregnant, and it’s not positive because of hormone left overs! A close friend of mine went through your same experience late last summer. She went in for her first OB at 10+ weeks and found out that she was carrying twins, but they had no heart beat and measured at just under 7 weeks. She was devastated, and decided to MC naturally last September. She did not get her period for about 7 weeks after the MC, and it took a while for her HCG to go down because she was carrying twins. She is now the mother of a 9 month old baby boy, and that pregnancy went off with out a hitch!  I was also on the patch the month before I got pregnant. I was able to ovulate and conceive with in weeks of quitting it. My MC was caused by a blood clot that formed in the beginning of the forming of the placenta, and had nothing to do with the patch. So rest assured, when you feel ready to try again, the patch shouldn’t cause any concern. Best of luck to you, and thank you for responding to my question.
