Ovulation after Miscarriage

[Hopeful75]

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?

I was 10 weeks when I began miscarrying on March 19th, 2011. According to an u/s, the baby had died in the 6-7 week area and it took 3-4 weeks for the bleeding to start. it started as dark brown streaks and quickly turned to very large clots. The midwives said I would miscarry naturally. On April 3rd, I went to the ER with heavy bleeding that nearly made me pass out, along with so many large fist sized clots, they thought I was going to need a transfusion. They ran all sorts of tests, gave me fluid and determined no transfusion was necessary (thank god! - I had 5 with my C-section and then was on iron pills for 2 months. A total pain!) I went home with a round of cytotec to induce expulsion, but all it did was slow my bleeding. A week later, it happened again and we went back to the ER. This time they decided I was getting towards the end of things as my Hcg was going down rapidly. Midwives and Drs. still thought a natural miscarriage was in the works, so no D&C. I *JUST* stopped bleeding last weekend (April 30, 2011). I am still getting little bits of blood and some tan blood when I wipe in the morning, and still wearing a pad, but, it looks like I'm finally done. I never did have ANY cramping with this miscarriage. I have a healthy 16 month old son, and had a big ER bleed with him when I was 6 weeks along. I do not know if it's just the way my uterus works, or if both things have been total flukes... Regardless, we would like to try again as soon as possible. I don't know when I will ovulate, and I'm not going to keep track. I'm just going to wing it. No pressure. I know I can get pregnant, so I think I'm just going to see how long it takes. My only wonder is - should I treat the extra long bleeding as just a drawn-out miscarriage, or was there possibly a period at the end of that? I am not sure how this all works. They said to wait one full cycle, but, what's the point of buying a box of condoms for a month, or not having any sex until after my next period? Besides, the thought of waiting to start bleeding again makes me angry all over again. How long do you think it will take? Does miscarriage do anything wacky to your body? Does it matter, really, if we wait a cycle or start now? Will my ovulation be the same pattern as it was before and after my son's birth? My son was conceived after 2 months of trying, and the last pregnancy took place after 2 weeks of trying. We are pretty fertile, it seems.

I am sorry you had to go through not knowing you were expecting and then mc at 9 weeks. My husband and I were trying for a 2nd child and I also had severe cramps and then bleeding.  April 5th 2011 we mc and today april 15th we had sex with no protection.Went to the ER and found that the baby had no heartbeat. The 1st ultasound at 7 weeks showed a heart beat. I was devastated to know that the baby I carried for 12 weeks was no longer living inside me. That I was no longer going to be pregnant. Your story is inspiring to me. I also feel very sad to see and hear about others being prego. The Dr. says wait 1 month after my period and try again if we want. We have never used protection and dont plan to. If it is God's will he will give us another child. My body feels healed and we are both going to counseling. I would love to get pregnant again and hope to soon. God bless.

I want to thank you all for sharing your stories. After reading each one I could feel the pain and heartbreak and realized I was not alone.  I admired your strong attitudes and strive to be more like that. Hopefully I will gain a little more after sharing my story. After only a couple months of trying and each month still getting my menstrual cycle my husband and I decided that maybe this was not our time and we’d hold off a little longer to start are family. Then a week before my birthday in January 2011 I was at the mall and felt this horrific pain in my lower abdomen, it came out of nowhere. The pain did not go away and I immediately went home where I called my husband, whom at the time was out of town and told him what had happened and that I was also bleeding quite heavily. Bleeding between periods had never happened to me before and this amount of blood and degree of pain was not consistent with my menstrual cycle whatsoever. Extremely worried I called my gynecologist whom asked me if I could be pregnant, I told her no after all I just had my period only 2 weeks prior and they were “regular” every month before that as well. She told me that she thought I could possibly have a cyst on my ovary and scheduled me to come in the following morning unless of course the pain increased to go to the emergency room. As I sat at home I began to think to myself that some women in fact have their menstrual cycle the first few months of pregnancy but in the back of my mind I didn’t even consider me being pregnant to be a possibility, it was more of process of elimination I suppose. I went to the drug store and purchased two at home pregnancy test, luckily, because the first one didn’t even work! The second one however immediately came up positive. All of a sudden I got this terrible feeling of something wrong. I was a nervous wreck as I walked into the ER and after hours and numerous tests I was told I was in fact having a miscarriage. I couldn’t believe it, to find out only a few hours prior that I was pregnant (9 weeks) and now being told that it is being taken from me? To say the least I was an emotional wreck. I didn’t understand why this was happening, I mean I did everything right. It’s been a month a half since the miscarriage and I’ve had to do follow up appointments (Monitor my levels going down and so forth) and it’s still hard for me to see other woman pregnant. Not to mention it seems like every one of my friends are just finding out they are having a baby. I’m very happy and thrilled for each of them but at the same time I can’t help but feel a little bit envious and even a tad jealous because I wanted that so badly to be me.
