Having a MC, Need advice!

[maryjayne05]

I am im the middle of a miscarriage... It started October 11th. I am still bleeding i haven't bled too bad, but the craps have been pretty horrible. My lmp before this was Sept.8th so i was almost 5 weeks. I am wondering, Would i consider my MC as a period (Oct.11th) as a HEDD for the next pregnancy, assuming i get pregnant right away before a period shows?!
I am wanting to try again as soon as i stop bleeding, when i went to the hosp. on oct. 11th my HCG level was 5.3 i am going to take a pg test to make sure i wont get a positive after im done bleeding. But i want to know, Would i use the oct.11th date as a lmp? Or should i just use opk's and when i get a smiley face should i use that date?
I would then be using a date 2 weeks behind since most obgys go by lmp till they can get a more accurate reading from an ultrasound later.
And being my hcg level was 5.3 on the 11th should it be a negative test now?

I have to disagree a bit (sorry queenspade, no disrespect intended).  Miscarriage bleeding is typically not considered part of a normal cycle.  The first day of your next regular period would be considered cycle day 1.  You may however find that, as queenspade said, it takes time for things to regulate and become normal.  All the best to you, and I'm sorry for your loss.

The day you started miscarrying would be CD 1.  It's not uncommon for it to take a few months for your body to get back on track.  You may ovulate & have your cycles resume right away but don't be surprised if it takes some time.  I'm very sorry for your loss.
