Can I ovulate while still having hCG in my system 2 1/2 weeks after start of m/c

I keep reading about how you should get a normal period anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks after a m/c but usually 6 to 8 weeks after a m/c.  Does this mean 6 to 8 weeks after the beginning of a m/c or 6 to 8 weeks after the bleeding stops?  I am still bleeding almost 3 weeks since my first red blood day (spotting since week 4 and m/c week 6).  I am having my regular o symptoms now.  I am still having light bleeding.  I had cramps today and lower back pain.  I also had some sharp pain in my breasts.  I always get a tad bit nauseaus when I ovulate and I am having that today as well.  It took 3 weeks to ovulate after my first m/c but I only bled for 5 days with my first at 5 weeks.  I got pg with this pg then ( no period in between).  I cannot take an opk because as of 3/2 I am still getting a positive hpt and today is 3/7.  Can I o with hCG still in my system and light bleeding???  

Thanks

I would think you could ovulate.  I had a lady at work tell me that after her miscarriage she was pg again in just 2 weeks.  My dr has told me this has happened a few times the girls are having the HCG levels checked to see if they are going down and all of a sudden they are rising again so I would say it is possible.  I also think your periods start back up 4-8 weeks after the miscarriage.  I had a D&C in Sept and another in Oct because they did not get all of the placenta and after the second D&C I got a period in about 4 weeks and got pg again in Dec around Christmas time.  I hope this helps.  Good Luck and Take Care - Angie

Thanks Angie!  I keep getting mixed answers but I felt like I o'd the other day.  Today I took a hpt to see if I would get a negative and I am still getting a positive.  AFTER 3 WEEKS!   My levels weren't really that high so I don't know why it's taking so long to get out of my system.  I see my doc on the 23rd and that will be 6 weeks since my m/c.  If I am still getting a + I won't know what to think!!  Thanks again!

Have you called your dr about this???  If you think you O'd you very well could be pg but I think after my m/c I had to go back 3 or 4 times for the blood work and finally by the 3rd of 4th week they said all was great & I did not need to go back.  Has the Dr. given you answers on how the blood work is going??  I would run it by him/her just to see.  Good Luck.  Take Care

Thanks Blondie.  I go to the doc on the 23rd of March.  He is on vacation with his family right now.  I can't wait for all this m/c **** to be over with.  :-(
