Period or Pregnant

[shay2420]

Lost a baby June 10, 08 and had a D&E (not D&C) on June 13.  I got my first period since the D&E on July 12 08. I had sex on June 15, July 10, July 27, July 31, Aug 8 and Aug 11.  Not sure when I should get my next period but my regular cycle is 33 to 34 days. Thought I should have gotten around Aug 14 or 15th.  It is now Aug 26th and no period.  I've taken two pregnancy test both were negative.  I did call a doctor and he said the miscarriage or D&E would not push my period back especially since i got my period back for the first time already.  Every now and then I get a few cramps, bad headaches, achy nipples and back pain but thats about it then it all disappears.  Can I be pregnant or is my period coming.  Really need serious answer any comments appreciated!

oh yea I was blabbing so much I forgot to say d= dialation c= curetage which means Scrapping not Cutting. Scrapping n Cutting r 2 different things. And far as d&e it involves suction and sometimes scraping so to really no what yur dr did u have to ask. They may say we did d&e and a person may have only neededva certain area scrapped, I wud ask yur dr did he/she have to do any scrapping while they were suctioning/evacuating

Well interesting topic. D&E D&C. 2 different things but they are both invasive procedures.  To say u wud rather have one or the other it rally depends bcuz with d&c sometimes yur uterine lining could b so thick that the scraping was needed. With d&e sometimes dr mite not evacuate e dry thng out and u end up going back 4 d&c. Hahn any of those procedures or a natural m/c is trauma to the body and some people bounce back qquick n some dnt. All of these pregnany hormones is regulated by the endocrine. There r a couple of thngs that could b going on with u. U could b preggo, but I would imagine if u were yur levels should b greater than 25 to b detected on hpt. If u did not receive u/s to confirm every thng was out, or blood test to determine yur levels were at zero, it's possible to still have some particles left over from d&e. The majoity of women(not all) first cycle is abnormal, meaning it is not the exact same as all the cycles u had b4 procedure. And jus bcuz u had one cycle dnt mean it automatically will come next month. Any trauma to the body will have yur systems wacky. Not to ADD stress can play a factor in a lot of things, and ttc is stressful, especialy when we want something right now and will b very disappinted if we dnt get what we want at that time. I wud not b surprised 4 all the women ttc that got bfn's & were complainig of tummy pains, if it wasn't a stress ulcer, it wud not shock me. So, in conclusion,it could b a range of things and u need more assesment to see what is going on with yur body, u dnt want to not go to pph bcuz if it's negative and blood test negative and more days go by u mite want a medication to bring on yur cycle. There is another lady on here, months ago who had similiar situation had first period then thought she was preggo and didn't get cycle until almost 2 months after that. Yes every woman is different. I hope it's a BFP for u, but I wud go ahead with test today, if it was me, I wud b getting u/ s & hcg level done. I'm interested into knowing what the outcome is so I'll be waiting patiently for yur post on what happens. FYI: I've had both d&e & d&c back n 95 I had to go back for d&c after d&e bcuz of small tissues stuck to uterine lining. Recently had missed m/c June 12, and d&c june 17th. My cycles were always heavy and lasted 7 days of bleeding and 2 days of discharge, NOW it's lighter and only last 4-5days. I've had 2 cycles this far. Wow, that was a mouth full, umm, SSBD to u. Plz keep us posted:)
