missed period, recent D
I had a previous D & C on October 14,2 005. My last period (which was very light) was on November 4th. It is now December 27th and I have yet to have a period. I went to the Dr. today and they did an ultrasound... my lining of the uterus is thick, but there is no sack to be seen. However, I have had two positive home pregnancy tests. The Dr. drew blood today and I am going back on Thursday for a follow-up...
Can I just be getting my hopes up? Is there any way I am not pregnant? What else could cause a thick lining of my uterus?

hi i was just wondering wat happened after that. i also had a d and t in april this year and i took 2 hpt and they were positive i went for an ultrasound and the lining was thick but couldnt see a sac.
I think progesterone is what causes the lining of the uterus to thicken. If you had two positive hpts, but no sac was seen on the u/s, I wonder if you might have an ectopic pregnancy? With my ectopic, my progesterone levels were low, but that's not always the case. You would have a positive hpt, as well. I really hope that's not the case, though. Maybe your dr. will have some answers for you once your bloodwork comes back.
