Ovulation after Miscarriage

I recently had an early miscarriage (5 weeks) and my doc told me we could start trying again this cycle, because there was no need for a D&C.  I had been testing with OPKs and I had a few days of false negatives days after the miscarriage due to the left over HCG in my system.  But, then the tests started coming back negative again.  Late last week I started having some ovulation (pain) and per the OPKs I ovulated on Sat.  Is this possible. Is it possible to ovulate 10 days after a miscarriage?

Sorry for everyone's loss. I had a tubal reversal the first week in April of this year. Starting in the month of June, I felt pregnant and only got sick one day. I took pregnancy tests every week on Tuesday & Saturday mornings. They were all negative. I knew I was pregnant (after already having four children) but was just waiting on a positive result. In June, I had a light bleeding for about 2 1/2 days. I thought maybe that was a side effect from my reversal in April. I was craving weird things but didn't have any other symptoms. In July, the day that my period suppose to have started, I woke up wet with sweat. I ran to the bathroom with a test in hand. After about 5 minutes it showed a positive. I just started thanking God and ran back and called my husband. I started going to the doctor right away because deep down inside I felt something wasn't right. My doctor started to monitor my hcg levels because my ultrasound was showing a very early pregnancy. After about a going to bloodwork every two days, I miscarried 2 weeks after finding out I was pregnant. I was getting ready for work and started having pain. I layed down in bed thinking that it will pass. Tried getting up and couldn't. Called my husband and he rushed me to the hospital only for my doctor to tell me that he felt it was going to happen and didn't have the heart to tell me the day before. I didn't bleed out or anything just had alot of pain. I was given one dose in two shot of a mediccation that they use for cancer paitents that flushed me naturally. But the pain was worst than the actual miscarriage. Two weeks later I felt better and no pain and the doctor gave use the green light to try again. I just started my 1st period today since my miscarriage. I pray it is just the spotting from the sperm meeting with the egg. Good look to everyone.

I had a miscarriage on 2/27/12.  The bleeding lasted for about 7 days.  I stopped bleeding for 2 days, then bled for about a month straight.  Then, I stopped for 2 or 3 days, and continued to bleed again. I went to the doc on 4/11/12, and the US showed nothing - everything was fine.  I stopped bleeding then for a week, and since, have been bleeding every other week.  I have not ovulated at all.  I went to the doc 6/12/12, and my pregnancy hormone was down to a 3. I had a terrible period that week, and actually passed something - doc thinks it may have been the rest of the miscarriage.  I basically miscarried for 3 1/2 months with no D & C or meds. Doc did nothing... I still have not ovulated.  I feel like I should get a new doctor?  Any help with this would be appreciated!

Is it true that after a miscarriage you are more fertile than before?? I had m/c on April first n we kept trying soon after that. I'm now 14 days late for my period but all the pregnancy test I have recently taken are negative.  Could it be that I ovulated late or what could it be ???

Hi Abi,

I'm new to this forum thing and have been reading this page for awhile. I've read your message and felt I should reply.

I've been typing you a message of my story to help you feel not alone and I've just burst into tears so I'm sorry the story wont be shared but know that you can feel any way you want. Friends say 'What doesn't kill you makes you stronger', 'It's wasn't meant to be', 'When it's right it'll happen'... now you and I both know all that and appreciate their support and encouragement but I've never ovulated. I've been told I'm infertile, I honestly thought I couldn't not have a baby and to find out that I am pregnant (about 5 weeks) and that there is no heartbeat all within 90mins, I'm devasted! Boo to you and you words, I want to feel very upset. Because I am.

I want you to know that you are not alone. I don't know where in the world you are but we're on the same planet and that counts to know we can be upset and happy together.

I'm not telling you how to feel, I'm saying you should feel what ever you feel and embrace those feelings. My husband is too very upset and we talk a lot. It's OK to be confused. I'm still in shock (it happened 4 days ago) and I can tell you confusion, unfairness and loss are just the first three feelings that come to mind.

I send you big big big hugs and love and light and really hope this helps x Just know you do what is best for you and you look after you so when the next time comes around you're healthy, happy and ready x I know I need to look after myself now. (stress is the worst. don't allow it in.)

xxx Love ECOD xxx
PS Love to all of you out there too x I'm sorry and thank you for sharing, it's helped x
