    Can decidual bleeding cause a negative pregnancy test
    I was wondering if anybody can help me.. I did 3 pregnancy test including one of them in the clinic and they came out positive but then a couple of days later, on the day of my expected period, I started bleeding so I went to the clinic and they told me that I had to wait a week to know if it was a miscarriage or just bleeding. Four days later and the bleeding stopped I just took 2 tests and came out negative but I read that decidual bleeding can cause hpt to come out wrong because of your hormones being out of whack. I just don't want to think I lost the baby and start doing things you shouldn't do when pregnant and then find out that I am pregnant.. Can anyone help?

    P.S
    I still feel pregnant and my abdomen seems to be hard when I touch it and its not very normal for me..

    Well then don't do things you shouldn't do while pregnant until you know for sure... is that really that hard?

    No one here can tell you if you are or are not pregnant. If the dr said you have to wait and see, you have to wait and see. I would keep calling back and see if they can get you in now if I were you.

    Yea am planning on going tomorrow and asking them to do an ultrasound to make sure.. but I was just wondering if anyone had gone through the same thing so I can get some peace of mind cause I really didn't want to have a miscarriage and I'm scared of going tomorrow and them saying that I lost it..

    Likewise I had faint BFP a few days before what I believe to be decidual bleeding. The bleeding lasted 1 full day and spotted the second day (lighter than normal period but definitely more than my implantation bleeding). I tested negative on that second day. More pregnancy symptoms appeared over the next couple days so I tested again, expecting BFN, but got a very strong BFP! Crazy, but can happen.
