I had a very early miscarriage on the 20th of July. I miscarriaged almost right after my BFP. My OB Gyn said we can proceed having sex like usual, and when the body is ready I should be able to get pregnant again. So after the bleeding stopped we continued like usual and 2 days later I get hit with nausea, fatigue and a weird feeling near my cervix and uterus. Almost like and achy feeling but not like PMS and I always get these when I conceive it seems. I consulted my a doctor (my original doctor was on vacation) and she said it is pretty much impossible that I am pregnant again. She did a blood test with the hcg levels being under 5...which does not surprise me because I read one should wait until a week after conception to do a blood test and not a couple of days. With the result she was even more convinced I am not pregnant and said I can't suspect I'm pregnant by symptoms... (how did women in the past suspect it before their missed period?)

Here are my symptoms: One day after my bleeding from the MC had started my pregnancy symptoms went away and my uterus shrank. That day when I said it just hit me out of nowhere they returned after just one week. Right now I get daily fatigue, strong nausea, bad constipation (5 days no bm, never happens to me) my uterus is growing again and I have growing pains.
I do have a little bump that sits very low, which might be visible because I am very thin...maybe it is from everything expanding.

My temperature is staying up as well (from 36.5 C to 37.1C). I will attach my chart so maybe someone can have a look at the symptoms and temp. rise to tell me when I possibly conceived and IF it is possible I am pregnant? I have no idea when I would be supposed to get my period since I haven't had any with the MC and all. And I can not see the bleeding of the MC as a period because I would have ovulated two weeks after right?

And when do you suggest I can test at home? The local OB thinks I am crazy for suspecting I am pregnant and I really don't want to bug her and just wait for my doctor to return (17th).

The first time around I had a blighted ovum. I had to have a d&c. The dr told me to wait til my next period and then try again. I did and got pregnant the first month. They say once u are pregnant it's a lot easier to get pregnant again right away
 
If you do test, please be aware that the HCG horomone might still be present from the MC. It took me a couple months to clear all the hcg from my system. But i also have heard of people getting pregnant right after a mc. Feel free to test, perhaps with a weeks estimator tests. Take one this week, if positive it will show you weeks since conception, Then take one another one in 7 days. If the weeks are increasing, you might be preggo! Good luck!!
 
I'm in a similar situation. I got my bfp July 13th approx and bled July 16th for three days. Took a test and back to negative.

Since start of the week I have symptoms I never get unless pregnant. Sore boobs, insomnia, nausea, pains low down, lower back ache, constipation, bloat. Weird. I'm 90% sure I'm pregnant again although my OH thinks I am crazy. I will be testing a week from today I think.

Have you tested since MC to ensure your levels are back to normal? That's what I done. That way, when I do test I know it's 100% a new pregnancy.

Good luck to you :)
 
It sounds like they checked her beta and it being under 5,its likely any positive from now on would be a new pregnancy unless I read that wrong. It is possible to ovulate sooner after a mc so I wouldn't rule it out but I will say I still had a lot of symptoms after my mc even after getting a negative test but I ended up getting pregnant again before getting af anyway. I would test if I was you. Do you have any idea if you've ovulated or when?

Yes I have heard about that too, that the chances of getting pregnant after a MC are higher.

Yes I did get a blood test done after my MC which was 5 one day after with a very faint hpt as well and 4 days after it was down to 0 and the hpt was also negative.
So I was thinking beta hcg levels higher than 0 are not bad even though I need to be above 5 at some point :)

No, I don't know when I ovulated. I started tracking my temperature later because I was not expecting for anything to work out so early. Originally I was thinking I might have to wait for one cycle.
 
I got pregnant with my son immediately after a miscarriage. Within 3 weeks of it. My doctor thought I was crazy when I called to get a pregnancy confirmation appointment because she had personally confirmed my miscarriage. She said I couldn't be pregnant but we would do a blood test. Miracles do happen. :)

Oh haha..that sounds like my doctor. She treated me like someone who was having a psychosomatic pregnancy :haha:..I know ovulating a few days after the bleeding stops seems odd but it brought me back to pretty much my old cycle where I would ovulate around a similar time. I should be able to test end of next week!
 
I do have a faint positive today! :) I hope it will stick...I will feel better if I make it past the 5 week mark, or 6 weeks. Around this time last time I had a miscarriage.
 
I am so happy for you and I hope your little one sticks in there! Good luck and congratulations!
 
Congrats Marumi!!
How exciting.
I hope this is your success story. Every time is different, so sticky vibes coming your way!
