when should my AF return after my D&C

[waitn838]

hey ladies...

im just wondering....does anybody have an idea how soon i should get my normal period after my D&C?

i had the D&C 3/3 @ 15 weeks preg and i read online that when a women is further in preg and has to undergo a D&C it is easier for her to get preg the first 3 months following the D&C procedure....im just trying to figure out when my body will return to normal so i can get an idea on my cycles to start pinpointing my ovulation days

its seems like forever to me but i know i must be patient

im charting my temps so ill watch out for those dates...also ill order my OPKs on monday so its here on time to start checking for O next week

gosh im scared but excited at the same time :/

I had a natural m/c in november and it took my body till Jan to have a period. I think its extrememly hard to be able to judge when you are going to ovulate until you have your first period and even then your cycle may have changed due to your m/c as your body goes through so much and takes a long time to adjust. Good luck

I "think" you will O right on schedule...but if it were me TTC I would BD for both dates.

im so sorry for your loss....i hope things at your doc turn out well...my follow up is march 13 and im praying im able to TTC immediately following that appt

i went to my old ovulation calender and here are my stats:

my period would have been due 3/7 but i had a D&C 3/3  ... i was due to O 3/17 - 3/20

so do you think ill O 4 days sooner since my D&C was 4 days before my normal expected period?

anybody is welcome to answer this question****

We're gonna wait a few months to TTC but I am trying to figure out when I will get AF  because we are booking a trip to get away from everything that has happend and I don't want to be in the Dominican and have AF. I see my Dr tomorrow so maybe he can answer this for me/us

[evthing4reason]

i think they generally say 4-6 weeks after. I "think" that if you figure out when you would've been due this month to ovulate if you hadn't been pregnant (i went to ovualtion predictor put in my last known period and length of my cycle and then kept moving it ahead a month until i got to this month), and as long as it wouldv'e been after your d&c you can figure it out that way.sorry if this sounds confusing...it's in my head and i just can't get it out right

does the day of the D&C count as CD1?

can i start charting my temps again?


sorry im going to have so many questions since i dont know quite know where my cycle begins and i def do not want to miss my O days


also....any suggestions for OPKs? i have never used them before (which will lead to more questions later on) but im thinking of using some online ones, charting my temp and then when i think im O'n getting the clear blue o kit?

any suggestions for a quick conception? :/
