Possible Pregnancy following mc???

So here is the backstory...I had a miscarriage last Oct.  It was a tubal pregnancy and they had to remove it surgically.  They were able to save both tubes thankfully.  My cycle didnt really become regular until December.  Last month i was having A LOT of pregnancy symptoms (cravings, smell, tired, nausea, etc...) I had a blood test done and it was negative and then I got my period.  I am using the app "Period Tracker" to help track my periods and when I am possibly ovulating.  I took an opt when the app said I should be ovulating (it was accurate for December and before the miscarriage) but the opt showed no signs of ovulating.  I tested for a few days in a row and they were all neg so I assumed that I had missed my ovulation time or had not ovulated this month.  Hubby and I were only intimate a handful of times the past month.  Last Friday I had 2-3 spots of bright red blood (wasn't sure what to make of it), then today I had some white creamy discharge in my undies when I went to the bathroom.  The next time I went to the bathroom I had some brown spotting (only when I wiped and only that 1 time), but it seemed like I had some more clear discharge also (my undies were really wet...sorry tmi).  I have had other symptoms too...extreme mood swings (I got so mad at my laptop the other night, then started crying for no reason, and then got upset again), lots of gas, my boobs have felt sore at times but also feel very full (if that makes sense), extremely tired (I could sleep all day and all night).  I am not sure what all this could mean.  I have also recently started using fertility friend (I knew it wouldn't really help me until next month but thought it would be good to get in the habit now).  FF has AF coming next week, my period tracker says it should have started yesterday.  I have none of the symptoms that AF should be coming though.  I have some cramping in my lower right side (ovary area) but that is it.  Anyone experienced anything similar?  Any suggestions?  Anything???  I did take a HPT and it was neg but I just dont know what to make of everything.  I don't want to get my hopes up just to be disappointed, but I also don't want to take any risks (if I am I am considered high risk this time according to my doc).  Any advice, suggestions, etc... are very much appreciated!

Hey luv, just wanted 2 share my story. I had miscarriage 5/12 2 months after I got married. Followed by ectopic 3/18(tubal ) pregnancy both resulting in surgeries. I have experienced something similar 2 what your going through.  And I can honestly admit that I was driving myself insane with the obsession of getting pregnant. I kept track of my periods and ovulation every month via any app u can think of. Once I just knew I was pregnant, bc I had weird cravings,  no af symptoms,  any sign of pregnancy u name it. Took several hpt and all were negative.  I thought was going insane until my period came 1week later. I almost drove my husband crazy lol literally with my obsession.  Thats until I realize I had 2 allow it 2 happen.  No matter how much I wanted it Or how much i thought we deserved it. All I could do was wait and prepare myself.So I started taking my vitamins along with folic acid and 2 my surpise a month later I turned up pregnant 11/13 :-) I am now 13 weeks pregnant and feel truly blessed. I shared my story bc I know what it feels like 2 lose a child, and try and nothing happens especially when your married.  Just be patient as someone stated All good things come 2 those who wait. So dont stress yourself if your not prego its ok!! Its not the end of the world. It will happen 4 u! I am sure of that bc it happened 4 me by God grace... ♥♡♥♡♥♡

Yea I agree give it a little more time. It might be a little to early to detect. I would proceed as if u are pregnant just in case. Better to be safe. I hope all goes well!

Well first off let me say I'm sorry for the miscarriage... And my suggestion is to give it a little more time then do another test... If it comes back negative then try a blood test or skip the home treat altogether and just do a blood test... Remember to be patient... All things come to those that wait... It will happen just stop focusing on it... The less time you focus on it the more time your body has to relax and let nature take it's course... Good luck sweetie...
