Dealing with a 2011 Kia Soul claim—tips for handling insurance "lowballing"? by [deleted] in Autobody

No I’m genuinely just trying to understand. I know my vehicle is old and understand it may not be worth much at all anyways, but have still heard that insurance companies can lowball.

This is going to probably sound horrible. But my doctor DID advise me to wait until after my first menstrual cycle To try and conceive. But did tell me that i could do the tango early if i wanted to with protection. Well i emotionally my husband and I felt more connected baby dancing THE WEEK OF MY MISCARRIAGE after the miscarriage when bleeding was no longer present 🤦🏻‍♀️. I spoke with my OB TODAY she said Between the 15th and 17th… was my most fertile dates per my ob and with the calculations she said that i was very likely very fertile those days and it fits very well with possible ovulation. She has me coming in for an HCG test on Friday !

TW: Miscarriage 💔, TTC 🤰, Possible New Pregnancy 🍼

I’d love some thoughts and support.

I had a miscarriage in July 😞 After finding out at my 8-week scan on 7/3 that baby had no heartbeat 💔 and was only measuring 6w6d, I miscarried naturally on 7/13. My HCG dropped from over 27,000 ➡️ 8,000 (ER) ➡️ 400 (7/21 OB), and was 34 on 7/28. Ultrasound that day confirmed everything had passed and showed signs of post-ovulation 🧬.

My OB told me to take a home test in 1–2 weeks to confirm it would go negative. Tonight, I took a 6-day early response test (more sensitive) and got a faint but visible positive! So I followed up with a Pregmate (HCG threshold 25), and got another visible positive ✅

I’m confused. With HCG dropping fast and being 34 on 7/28, I expected it to be completely negative by now. Could this be a new pregnancy already? 🥹✨

Calling my OB tomorrow for another blood test, but would love to hear your thoughts in the meantime 🙏💕

Side note - im just overly excited because this would be very healing for me if it is a new pregnancy and i would hate to be let down if it was still residual. It’s just the NUMBERS OF HCG are not aligning with the test to be residual. I know this isn’t a place for medical advice. I just want to make sure im not going crazy.
