Can I be pregnant after I had a miscarriage?

I was 5 weeks prgenant with my first child. I started to miscarry on Feb. 19, 2007. I passed tissue on Feb. 22, 2007 and I stopped bleeding on the 26th. I have not been on birth control and I have been intimate with my partner. I have not started my cyle as of yet either. I am strating to have all the symptoms of being pregnant. Feeling tired, morning sickness, breast tingling. I took a test yesterday on the 21st and it was negative.I know that it may be too early. I still feel sick. When is a good time for me to take another test? Can I be pregnant?

Ok So two weeks ago my partner and I went to my doctors for my very first ultrasound. I was SUPOSE to be 10 weeks pregant, only to find my babys heart had stopped beating and had been dead for two weeks. I had a D&C done the next day. I started bleeding then stopped. Then I started again a few days later and now am no longer bleeding. My partner and I have been intimant since, and when i went to the doctors today I had a postivie pregnacy test. The doctor said that since its only been two weeks it could still be from my last pregnacy, or I could be pregnant again. I really want to what yall think I wont be able to know for sure for a few days and its driving me crazy. Please tell me what you think
thank you

Hi. I had a miscarriage on may 27th 2004. we tested my hcg levels the same day and they had fallen to 2500. By may 30th they were just 16. I went back on june 12th to make sure they had dropped to zero and they had climbed to 8300. At first suspected molar pregnancy wich can cause variations in hcg levels, but we waited 3 weeks and performed vaginal ultrasound and it showed a live gestational sac. I hadnt even had a period in between pregnancies. So, yes it is very possible to get pregnant that soon, but you unfortunately run a higher risk of miscarriage because your uterus had no time to adjust to a new pregnancy , as in my case where i miscarrried again 2 weeks later. We decided to wait 4 months and try again and in november i got pregnant and delivered a healthy baby girl in july. Hang in there. It will happen for you.

We just kept on trying even though I was still kind of bleeding off and on from the miscarriage. I never even got a period in February! I must have gotten pregant during the last week of January or early in the first week of February because usually I get my period around the 8th of the month and I didn't. I have my first prenatal apt tomorrow at 1:30. I will let you know what they say. We tried right away even though they said not to. I was totally surprised to find out I was pregnant again so soon. I hope this helps

Hey all! I need help please!
I had a m/c last week and then had to have an emergency DNC, I was nearly 11weeks  and I'm just devastated this has happened! They found no heartbeat on the baby :( It took me a year to get pregnant because I have PCOS (polysistic ovaries) but I managed to fall pregnant just before they referred me to fertility specialist! I want to start trying ASAP and I have been told to wait for my first period but having PCOS it doesn't help as they're so irregular and I might not even have a period???? :(

I just had a mc and I had sex right after that. I'm scared to take a hpt I'm kinda waiting a bit longer but I'm thinking what if I had twins and only mc one which is what runs in my family or I got pregnant when I had sex the night of my mc. Or maybe its in my head. Me and my husband really want a baby. I stopped bleeding after the mc about 2 days after and now its been a week and a half and I really think I'm whether still pregnant or got pregnant again. My mom did this same thing. I noticed my stomach was firmer after the blood stopped and I got in the shower. I showed my husband and he just kissed my stomach and smiled.

Hello I'm kaya.
Basically I just wanted to get abit of aadvice from someone that has actually experienced what I have.
may 29th 2011 I took a pregnancy test and it came back possitive. 2days later (31st) I started to experience light bleeding then eventually got heavier. I went to the hospital & I found out I was miscarrying. By the 5th of june I stoped bleeding. Then had unprotected intercourse a week and a day later after bleeding (13th)I still haven't yet got my period. Could I get pregnant in this time or not?

Hi everyone,
I have just joined this site.  I just wanted to say how completely blown away I am by all you brave women.  There is so much hope in your messages.  I miscarried (blithed ovum) last august.  My husband and I had started trying in june of 2006 and got pregnant right away.  I went fo weekly ultra sounds becaus eI was in soo much pain because the DR's said I had a cyst on my right ovary that was the size of a golf ball ( very small according to them).  Well it turned out that I had no baby in my stomach.  Had a D&C on August 4th...dooms day as I call it.   My period did not return until October 1st.  

We started trying that month again to get pregnant.  We got pregnant again in March and miscarried with bleeding at about 51/2 weeks....I am soo discouraged.  My OBGYN says it's not that bug a deal...Wonder how many times she miscarried????  Anyway, my period has been all of=ver the place since december so I  never know when I am going to get it.  I think I may be pregnant again...lets hope this one sticks!  I was going to take a pregnancy test on father's day without telling my husband so that I can surprise him if it's a positive.  Wish me luck and BABY DUST TO ALL OF YOU!!!!!

Hello to all, this is my first time commenting, I usually just read the comments to feel better about my situation. I had a miscarriage on 26 May, I was approx 6-7 weeks. I had complication from the start of pregnancy, but thought I would be alright, but ended up loosing the baby. I am a 27 y/o woman who is ready to concieve. I bleed for about 7 days, I started ttc 2 days prior to the stop of light spotting. I never thought that it would be able to concieve so soon after a m/c, but I am starting to believe that I am pregnant again, but there is no solid proof of that. I took preg test this morning came out neg but I know that it is too early to tell, but now I know that hormones are leveled. I want so bad to have concieved again. You ladies give hope that it is possible. Thank you all for your comments.

I feel like we are in the same boat (oh and no one seems to answer any questions around here, it seems to be one big huge page of questions, although I read it none the less.

I am 26  and miscarried on May 24 2007 (had a blighted Ovum at 8 weeks sac mesured only 6 weeks though) and have been a CRAZY women TTC ever since. Some people say "you need to wait" and all that but if its going to happen it will.

Shoot me an email off the message boards and we can talk more, I dont want to put all my info out there. I have found alot of interactive groups online that I can give you the link to, alot of great ladies.
