I'm asking b/c I think that I may need to take a pregnancy test and want accurate results

.

Somethings up, either something's "off" with me and I need to talk to my Dr OR my youngest won't be youngest next summer.

By 6 weeks post partum your HcG levels would be back to 0 so any positive you get now would be the result of a new pregnancy

oh wow! I just googled it and found this website, if you scroll down a bit there's a chart that goes to about 6 weeks postpartum:

Thanks! I will be testing tomorrow...

At 9 weeks they would be zero. If you got a positive test, then you are pregnant. I found out at 12 weeks PP that i was alread 5 weeks pregnant, so it can happen.

I would test for sure.

Of course if you have retained placenta they would remain higher, but by 9 weeks you would have bleeding/pain and funky smells if that were the case.
