Honestly I would request a blood test to make sure that you a) don't have any tissue left over from the miscarriage and b) to see if you are maybe pregnant again. You shouldn't be getting stretch marks this early from a pregnancy though. I'm almost 1/2 through my pregnancy and my old stretch marks from my first pregnancy aren't even pink right now. Normally you don't get stretch marks until towards the end. Also, if your pants are getting too tight of course they are going to squeeze and hurt your stomach. Its not a sign of pregnancy. Nor are headaches, nausea or weight gain. If you believe you are pregnant the ONLY thing that can determine that is a pregnancy test (go for blood if you already got a negative HPT) or a positive ultrasound.

thanks for you help. im gonna call my doctor as soon as i get a chance. i got another question i didnt ask the other girls but u might know.. when i put my jeans on that i bought just last month and they dont fit anymore but i try to fit in to them. well it hurt the bottom of my tummy and i cant keep them tight i have to let them loose. if there is a chance i might be pregnant does that have something to do with it? then i take them off and i feel alot better.. oh yeah and also ive been getting mild cramps and headache some times when im so hungry i feel like throwing up and i feel dizzy, then i eat and i feel better but still with a headache and kind of dizzy? what migh that be?

does the spotting have something to do with it? cuz like i said i was spotting march and april.. and when i had the m/c in 2008 me and my husband waited all lat year till this year that were trying again.. i have never had spotting before. you can notice these strech marks they are now pink on my breast and my tummy where i didnt have them. even in between my legs. im a tall skinny girl, well not that skinny anymore but im 5'9 and i use to weigh 147 and after these two months i weigh 157 i really have been getting fat. lol.

i did have a follow up with my doctor after my m/c. i dont know whats going on but my last menstral was feb.7 on march i didnt start my period but i spotted for like 3 days.this month i spotted also and ive notice that ive gained some weight. my husban tells me that if im sure im not pregnant cuz he says he also notices the black line from my tummy. everything is so weird,, this is driving me crazy! sometime i feel like a monkey cuz im just scraching all over lol.... :)

Just go to the doctors or take another test. If your pregnant, and you got a negative pregnancy test, it is too early to be getting stretch marks from a pregnancy. Maybe you have gained weight? Anyways, just call your doctor. Have them take a blood test, usually more accurate.

Did you have a follow-up appointment after you were told that you had a M/C to confirm everything had passed?

A HPT will typically detect pregnancy 2 weeks after conception.  A women that is 3 months pregnant would show positive on a test provided that the test is performed correctly.

You might consider seeing your doctor to make sure everything is in order but it doesnt sound like you are pregnant.

If you took a pregnancy test and it came up negative then most likely you are not pregnant or it is too soon to tell if you are. Miscarriages can cause your period to be funky for months afterwords. I would try contacting your doctor to see if you can get a blood test since that would be the most accurate. Also, I don't think pregnancy causes old stretch marks to become pink as a sign. I'm 16 weeks and my old stretch marks are the same color as before I got pregnant again.
