My ob confirmed on Monday night that I was 5 weeks pregnant. I started spotting on Tuesday and then it turned into a light period by Wednesday. No clots or cramps - just light bleeding.

We went to the hospital on Thursday evening as the bleeding was not getting any better and I was examined by a doctor who told me that my cervix was closed which was a good sign as miscarriage was not happening and I needed an internal ultrasound to find out why I was bleeding.

On Friday I had the internal ultrasound and was told I had a miscarriage as they were unable to detect a sac and that everything had passed given there were no remains showing on the ultrasound. The blood test revealed that my HCG levels were high.

Today I took a pregnancy test and it came up as positive and I am booked in to see my ob on Wednesday.

If the miscarriage is complete, can a pregnancy test show up as positive?
