Positive after miscarriage??

I had a silent miscarriage(second miscarriage) 4 weeks ago,went for 8wk scan lost heartbeat at 7wks. started medical treatment 3wks ago but after that the embryo still hadnt passed,had scan 2weeks ago and only a little tissue left so im going back for scan next week to see if everything has passed. My husband and i have still had intercourse in the meantime. did a random pregnancy test today and its come up a strong positive. surely its still the hormone levels and not the fact of a pregnancy again???
is this possible?
help!!

Congratulations and good luck for your scan. I had a positive result 3 n half week's after my miscarriage in April. I'm now 3months pregnant with a healthy looking baby with a very strong heartbeat ;)

after the first miscarraige it took 10 months to concieve again. i completely agree with you xbabyboyx2,we had intercourse the once,but so much going on i have no reason for being quite silly! after 2weeks ago when i was supposed to go for d&c but they wouldnt operate as it was such a small amount left. my bleeding(which was extremely light,more like discharge) stopped last week. they booked me in for a scan next wednesday just to make sure that everything has passed to be sure, too be honest im hoping its just my hormone levels still high,dont know if i could cope with a pregnancy so soon,still havent fully takien this one in. But thankyou for all the help.

If you still have left over tissue that can cause the positive. But I would bring it up to the dr.

i think (not 100% sure) u could be pregnant again as its very easy to conceive after a miscarriage. only thing is if u still had some tissue in there to pass then i cant be sure what would happen i would defo call ur doctor i personally would not have still been haven sex during a misscarriage, i also had a silent misscarriage a couple years ago went for my 12w scan and turned out baby hadnt had heartbeat since 8weeks i didnt know and then it took a further 2weeks to pass the fetus
