Ovulation after m/c?

I had a m/c at 7w4d on 11/9. On 11/19 the bleeding finally stopped. 3 days later I had a short bleeding and I think this could have been an ovulation bleeding which I had before. Two days ago I had some discharge like I usually had when I was ovulating. I don't know what's going on now. Still have sore (.)(.) like when I was pregnant, doctor told me the hormone levels dropped down as soon as I miscarried so what can this be and when can I expect AF. Before the m/c I had a normal 28 cycle.

Thanks for all your answers! At the moment I really feel hopeless....Breast are still feeling like I was pregnant, still need that extra cup size I brought when I was 6 weeks pregnant.
Doctor told me it was ok to try again immediately and we did. I was also told to call when I'm not having a period in the next 5-6 weeks.
It can be that the things I feel are the first symptoms of a next pregnancy but it can also be the effect of the m/c which started 3 weeks ago.I think the only thing I can do is wait and be patient....very patient!

Also, during both miscarriages, my bleeding stopped and started several times, and I bled between 10 days and 2 weeks.  So perhaps the second round of bleeding you had might have been the end of the miscarriage?  So sorry for your loss!  It's such a painful time, and then it's especially hard to wait for one's cycle to be normal again.

For what it's worth:  I've had two miscarriages in the last 6 months (one at 9 and 1/2 weeks, the last one at about 7 weeks).  The first one I had a D&C and got my period early, at 23 days past the D&C.  My normal cycle is 26-27 days.  The second cycle after the D&C was 28 days.  After one more normal cycle, I was pregnant again.  During the second miscarriage in October, I also had an early period 23 days after the bleeding stopped and about 12 days after my hcg dropped to 4 (based on an RE blood test).  So it took my hcg levels 2 and 1/2 weeks to drop to 4, and they were really low to begin with during that pregnancy; oddly, after the miscarriage, the hcg even went up before it went down.  Also, I started doing the home ovulation tests every day starting a few days after the miscarriage, and I never saw any sign that I was ovulating.  So everything about that cycle was odd.  Now I just got a positive ovulation test at 11 days, which is normal for me.  What I was told by the RE and ob-gyn both times is that anything can happen with that first cycle (i.e., it can be early, late, etc.).  The second cycle should be more normal.  And that's what happened to me.  I was told to call if I had no period in the 6 weeks following the miscarriages.  So maybe just give it more time, and see if you go back to normal after the first cycle is over....
