I'm so sorry Beesbella

It's absolutely fine to start again straight away if you feel ready, it's actually helping us a bit.

I counted the first day of bleeding as day 1 and am still waiting to ovulate,as you know I use the CBFM which seems to be a little confused looking at the test stirps!! It keeps giving me highs, had my 7th today when never had any more than 6 before, I can only assume there's still some pregnancy hormones affecting ovulation.

As its early you might find your cycle is fairly normal as the hormones won't have increased too much yet, I was almost 7 weeks.

I hope you get another BFP soon hun. xxx

Thanks for your help. It's horrible because I still feel pregnant with all the symptoms but I know deep down that there is no way I can bleed that much and baby still be ok.

I am very sorry for your loss I am in the same limbo question as just 3 days ago I was 16w6d pg and had a D & C. I don't know if a natural m/c and d & c share the same start date of the day of loss as a new cycle or not???? I want to try asap as well.

Ladies, sorry for your losses

BeesBella...there is a possibilty that you are still pregnant, I know that you might not think so but there are ladies that have bled like a period but have gone on to have a healthy baby

Kiki...I had an ERPC which is similar to an D+C back in February. I was advised to wait until two but preferably three AF's to start again by the hospital and just one AF by my doctor

Basically, I would keep testing until you get a BFN. This will probably be when you have stopped spotting or bleeding, count D+C as CD1 but be aware that some people's cycles are all over the place after a loss. You will possibly ovulate 10-14 days after spotting/bleeding stops.

Good luck and go easy on yourselves

I am so sorry for your loss

I had a natural mc and I counted my first day of my new cycle when I got a negative pregnancy test. Some people count the first day of bleeding. I bled for about 6 days and I kept getting a positive pregnancy test that became more and more faint through the week. Once I stopped bleeding I got a negative test (I was fairly early when I miscarried) but its different for everyone.

I started using OPTs last week to see if (and when) I would ovulate this cycle because sometimes it can take a bit for it to get back on track. I got my smiley face this weekend, so I'll have a 31 day cycle (I am kind of irregular so 31-36 days is normal for me).

You should start trying again when you feel ready to do it. Some people (like me) wanted to start again right away, others need time to process emotionally. Only you know whats right for you.

Take all the time you need and I hope the next one is a sticky one!

I am in the same position as you.

My doctor told me to wait at least two months to start trying, but didn't give me much of a reason for it. My sister told me that doctors say this because if you get pg before an AF it makes it very difficult to figure out the dates, and your hormone levels may be a little off due to the previous pregnancy, but medically there is no reason that you can't try.

I am on CD12 after my D&C (I counted the day of the procedure as day 1 as I started bleeding right away) and I am still getting false HPT positives and false OPK positives, but they are getting fainter every day. Also, I'm charting and my BBT is uncharacteristically high for me. Today was the first day I got what seemed like a normal reading...I think my body is finally realizing I'm not pg anymore. I'm unsure if I should wait until after AF to try, or if we should NTNP in the mean time. It's hard to think that we could be wasting this precious time. Every cycle that goes by means that much longer until we could have a baby...maybe I'm just impatient!

Good luck to you.

Hey hun, ive just had my 3rd m/c at 5/6 weeks and i sooo want to try again this month but my specialist has told me to wait 2 months,ugh! I suppose i better do as he says as he has promised to prescribe me with progesterone supps next time i get a bfp (its been a long hard battle for me to get them prescribed)......so i should be good and take his advice! im classing the first day i bled properly as CD1, i did spot for 4 days before then though, im thinking of opk'ing this month too see if i ov or not, my cycles are normally 24-26 so expecting to see a pos opk this weekend....just cant bd! arrrgh!!!

Really hope everything is okay for you and your little beanie is hanging on in there.....good luck babes xxx
