Ovulation after ERPC/D&C

[susan_1981]

Just wondering when you ovulated after ERPC/D&C? I did an OPK and I'm still getting the faintest line so I don't think ovulation is even on it's way. I know I'm being impatient as I only had my op 2 weeks ago today but I'm not sure when to expect it.

I think you're propbably very much right!!! I luckily had some ewcm which pointed the way but like you , i did an opk and as such found my ov.

Faint or no faint, I only found mine after what i thought was a negative and i had very faint or no lines after.

Its good news though, isnt it!!!

I thought faint lines were negative though? I thought it was only positive if the test line is darker than the control line? Although saying that, I don't think they work too well for me. I remember the last day I ovulated (which I think is the day I actually got pregnant), it came up with a dark line but it wasn't anywhere near as dark as the control line. I knew I OV'd that day though because I had all the cramps. Saying that, I think they say that your OPKs can vary depending on what time of day you take them so it may very well be that if I had used it in the evening as well, it would have been positive.

I'll just wait for my OV pains I suppose and keep testing. Roll on my OPK BFP. Me and my husband are trying again, and are going for it every other night, until I feel I'm OV'ing (if and when that happens!), then we'll go for every night for 3 or 4 days.

On a positive note, I am getting BFNs on my pregnancy tests now so roll on my next BFP! As long as it's a sticky this time, I don't want to know if it isn't!

I ovd exactly 3 weeks after my erpc , so like you went for it am now 6dpo and waiting and trying very hard not to symptom spot.
the fact that you now have a bfn is great news , sounds like your kinda doing the smep thing ,i got my bfp from that so fingers crossed you will too.

I just think if we try every other night then I'm less likely to miss my opportunity but as soon as those cramps start, we'll go every night. That's more or less what we did the month I got pregnant (and I'm pretty sure we were both drunk the night I actually did get pregnant) so this time, we'll do it all sober!

Hi Susan, the reason i mentioned the faint line is that if nothing was going on, i.e. you had no luteinising hormone in your body it wouldnt show up. In other words you're having a 'fade in' pattern which should culminate in a positive indicating ov. Keep in mind that just a border of the testline as dark as the control line is a positive (it threw me off although i already knew this..and only realised i ov'd when all the other ones came up v.v faint or with nothing at all..

Either way, with all that bd you should've covered yourself nicely, lol!!

Good luck!! Omi xxx
