Update: 2 thin positive tests but blood work showing low HCG, so no viable pregnancy

Just to update: I did another test yesterday, which was another weak positive. The clinic were very good and got me in for a blood test, which has shown low HCG. They said it could be that the embryo tried to implant but that it isn't continuing, so it's a very early missed miscarriage or a "chemical" as people on like to call them, but I think that makes it sound like it wasn't real! There was HCG in my system and it was being picked up by pregnancy tests, but it's not enough for a pregnancy to be continuing. This is a negative result, but at least I was more prepared for it than yesterday after getting a thin positive line. Christmas will be a nice distraction and then we have 1 more frozen embryo to go again with in the new year.

Merry Christmas! Thinking of all of you who are testing today or are testing over this period.

Just read this, and I'm so sorry you're going through it. I really hope the new year brings you better news with your next embryo.
