Hi Tinks, I had to do one about 10 days after my m/c and then phone the result through to the EPU. AF returned 4 weeks to the day of the start of my m/c.

Yes, you are also right that us ladies are very fertile after a m/c.

Fingers crossed lovely xx

I know when I m/c, I found this forum fantastic. People just want to talk and listen too.

On the morning of my scan after m/c, the EPU took bloods which showed I still had the pregnancy hormone (at a very low level) but recommended that I take a 2nd pregnancy test to confirm the hormone had gone.

That is really bad about your blood tests.

Hiya sweetie,

I had a d&c 4 weeks ago tomorrow and i can relate to what you're saying. No blood tests though.. i did do a pg test at home a week after and had a bfn which made me happy as we too decided to ttc right away.. im still waiting for my af..nothing yet..i was told at hospital to expect af 3-4 weeks after..but i also suspect i ov last week so af should be due next weekend.

It is quite common for women to get pg quite soon after a mc as your body is primed..having already been pg, recognising the signs etc..

Having said that it is also very common for your body to take its time to regulate back to normal, and the bit i find difficult..for things to, at first not be as you are used to... cycles changing, bleeding changing..its a waiting game..im still waiting.. and so far my suspected ovulation was not as it usually is, no ov pain etc.. have been feeling very different than normal. But Im hopeful that once i do get my af things will settle down to how i remember it!

All the best, hun!! xxx

I had ablighted ovum and positive preg test 4 weeks later!!!. Should say I had a scan at 11 weeks and foetus had died at 7 weeks .

AH thats awful. Is it just me or is the support and information(from docs etc) after suffering a m/c shocking!!!! They just dont care its nice to be on here and talk.....
Hoping no morefor 9 months

I cant really complain about docs or the nhs.. They've been great to me, but then i get the feeling its all a bit hit and miss, really..depending on where you are etc..me and my friends have been lucky i guess..


I wish you all the best, tho and a BFP of course!! xxx

 

[Omi]

I cant complain about the docs or the nhs really..they've all been lovely but i do realise its a bit hit and miss...

By the way, i had a missed mc diagnosed at my 10 week scan..baby died 2 weeks earlier.. Im feeling strong though and ive been back it.

Good luck to us all! xxx

sorry about posting this twice..i had some comp troubles...

Hi all, I miscarried recently at 5wks 2days, did a preg test a week later and still faint positive, had blood test and hcg ws 19 (v low which was good!) then that day also did preg test at home which was negative.
I think the hormone lingers for longer or shorter with different women.
But once hcg lowering and going - or better yet gone!- i believe it's safe and fine to try again.
I have been trying again this month......So nervous but hopeful.
BFPS all round, I really hope!!!

Hi
I had a missed m/c, found out at 10 week scan and baby died at 8 weeks and 6 days. one week after D&C and only now have my pg symptoms gone completley. it was a real shock. suddenly yesterday when i looked in the mirror my bodyha changed! it feels redundant

I had a miscarrage at 6 and 1/2 weeks too. I am now 5 and a 1/2 weeks and I am really scared. I didn't have a bloodtest, they just did another pg test after the scan and it was neg.
I took 4 months after my m/c to get preg again

I had a m/c on Tuesday and plan to try right away. After reading this thread is it right to do a preg test to chech your HG levels and if this comes back negative, its OK to try again? I asked the Dr if I could try ASAP and he said Yes, the only reason they ask you to leave it a month is for dating purposes but you could take the date of your m/c as a start. xx

Good luck everyone! I will be testing in around 4 weeks time. xx
