Any help would be appreciated
I had a blighted ovum and miscarried it naturally December 21st, 2012 and we have had unprotected sex and I have yet to start a period yet is there any way im pregnant? Or is it normal to not have a period yet? What should I do and is it possible to have a heathly pregnancy this early after having a blighted ovum?
I am cramping and having signs of a period but no period yet but I did do this when I got pregnant with my son and when i was pregnant and had the blighted ovum I did take a pregnancy test and it came back positive but i wasn't sure if it was hormones still from the blighted ovum what do you think?
After a miscarriage it takes 6-8 weeks on average for your period to arrive. This is completly normal and there is nothing to worry about.
You may notice that your period are slightly different. Your cycles may be longer other times shorter, but again that's normal too. As long as there longer than 21 days tha's fine, but really your cycles shouldn't really be longer than 40 days or more.
For ovalation to occur it normally takes about 2-3 months, but some women can start ovalating straight away, but again on average it's about 2 months. There is chance that you could be pregnant, but I feel that ur body is just gearing up for a period.
Even if were pregnant there is no reason why it should be a problem. If ur body allowed u to get pregnant so fast, then ur body must of been ready and in good working order, especially to conceive so easily., so there is No increased risk to you at all. You are at no greater risk.
If ur not pregnant and u want to be, then I suggest u start taking pre-conception pregnancy tablets and folic acid. Increase ur intake of vitamin C too. Healthy diet also helps alot and moderate exercise for good hormone balance and overall good health.
Hope ur ok . I am sorry you had to experience a miscarriage, it's very heart breaking.
