Confused :(

[TTCmyRainbow5]

Hello,
I am new to this site and hoping some of you lovely ladies may be able to help offer some insight or opinions if you have experienced similar.

For some background ...
I have 3 beautiful living children and a beautiful baby boy in Heaven who I lost at 16 weeks gestation on August 1, 2005.
After losing him I swore I was done as there would be no way I could handle going through that again but here I am 9 years later having been bit by the baby fever bug.

I tested positive this month on November 9 which was CD25 and approx. 10 dpo. My period was due two days later on November 11 - CD27 but nothing came and still testing positive until three days later on November 14 which I began bleeding and we assume was a chemical pregnancy as by the time I went for bloodwork the next day my blood was already testing negative.

This leads me to my questions and confusion.
Most of what I have read say women go right back to regularly scheduled ovulation etc.
Well I am unsure if that's happening for me
I began using opk's on Nivember 21 - CD8 because I wasn't sure if the CP would throw off my cycle and I wanted to try to catch my ovulation if it did ... which usually happens about CD15 normally.
I began getting light ewcm on November 23 - CD10 that became slightly heavier over the next two days but no positive opk until November 25 - CD12 at about 12:15 PM which continued to be positive through mid afternoon on November 26 - CD13. The opk's finally got lighter the next day when I tested which was CD14. Now usually within a day or so of the positive opk I get distinctive O cramping. My concern is I have not had any of my typical cramping that I know of unless it was in my sleep which I don't get much of anyway so that is unlikely.
Could I have gotten the ewcm and positive opk's and not ovulate???
Also I had unusual cm when I wiped yesterday morning and this morning which both had just a few drops of pinkish blood??? Never saw that before! It wasn't really mixed in the cm to call it tinged cm but it wasn't bright red bleeding either. Hence why I am so confused by all this ... I don't know what to think.
I should add we BD'd November 24 - CD11, November 27 - CD14 and November 28 - CD15 because I assumed I would O on my usual CD15 ... Could I not have O'd at all?? Did I miss it??
So confused
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thank you!

I should also add I tried temping this month which I know would help confirm if O actually happened but unfortunately I battle insomnia and irregular sleep patterns so it has proven to be inaccurate to say the least

Hi there - didn't want to read and run. Sorry you are going through this! I think that your cycle can be off after a chemical, and I have read that you can have all the signs of O (ewcm, positive opks), which is just your body gearing up, but then actually not ovulate that month. So that could be happening to you, or you could just have O'd later or earlier than you expected and not felt it.

Good luck!

I had something very similar to you this month. I miscarried at 5w1d (which they classify as chemical even though I'd known about it for a week and a half already), and I started getting EWCM on CD17. It seemed to go away, but then came back a week later on CD24 or so, and AF kept on not coming, and I kept getting what seemed like EWCM on and off.
AF finally arrived on CD38, and now it's just ending (I'm on CD5 of the new cycle).

I kept taking pregnancy tests trying to figure out what was going on, but of course they were all negative (which was kind of a relief because I didn't really want a second chemical in consecutive months). It seems like my cycle just went kerfluey because of the MC.
