Did you have a follow up appointment? My HCG took about 4 weeks to go below 5 (after a d&amp;e though) and I spotted until AF came again. I'm so sorry for your loss. :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-natural-miscarriage-do-i-need-to-call#post-2615144 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 21:28:11 +0000 MaryM 2615144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it's just spotting, I wouldn't worry too much. </p> <p>I'd call if you start cramping, bleed heavily, or spot for more than a month (that's my plan at least. Still have brown mucous close to a month post D&amp;C) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-natural-miscarriage-do-i-need-to-call#post-2614913 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 15:34:51 +0000 jape14 2614913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would probably call the OB just to be safe. I'm sorry that this is happening, but I'm glad to hear your tests are fading/starting to go negative. I hadn't been testing that much but I got a legit negative finally on Tuesday I think? Wall me if you want to vent! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-natural-miscarriage-do-i-need-to-call#post-2614817 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 13:44:21 +0000 MrsKoala 2614817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: Oh that is good! I totally understand what you mean. The whole thing just sucks so much. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-natural-miscarriage-do-i-need-to-call#post-2614814 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 13:43:11 +0000 Cole 2614814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsKoala: I just retested and while it wasn't a long hold it came up negative (woohoo!) I have tested every 4-5 days and it's definitely fading which I realize isn't perfect but I am so over all of this! I do appreciate the input, I really wish I just had a magic wand (or you know, a baby in my uterus...) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-natural-miscarriage-do-i-need-to-call#post-2614803 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 13:33:28 +0000 MrsKoala 2614803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It might be a good idea to call and get an HCG test just to see that it is going down. My OB/MW asked me to do that when I had my MC and that way they knew that I didn't retain any tissue since I no longer had HCG in my body. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-natural-miscarriage-do-i-need-to-call#post-2614786 Thu, 01 Sep 2016 13:20:24 +0000 Cole 2614786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I miscarried naturally two weeks ago, bleeding stopped about five days later. I feel fine but started spotting again yesterday, mostly dark but some red. No cramps etc. As of Monday I still had a faint positive on a wondfo. Can I ignore this or should I call/go in? (It was a blighted ovum, it passed just before 9 weeks, tissue in 2 pieces.) </p>
