    Red face Conceiving after miscarriage

    I was wondering what are the chances of falling pregnant after a miscarriage before AF returns. I read somewhere that an egg is released 2 weeks after a m/c but what about 6 weeks after what are the chances then?

    We MAY have DTD without pulling out....

    It's possible. Ovulation depends partly on whether it was a natural m/c or a d&c. If it's a natural m/c, the cycle afterwards you count day 1 of bleeding as day 1 of cycle - so you'd O when you normally would (most women anyway). If it's a d&c, not as easy to predict. Your luteal phase would still be normal.

    After our loss, I scoured fertility friend for charts of women who conceived without AF - there were heaps! Didn't happen for us, but there was only one cycle in between

    If you think you might be utd - just poas! Otherwise, give it a couple of weeks. If you had a natural m/c at the start of August and you're usually pretty regular, I'd have expected AF by now, if it was a d&c, could take a little longer.

    Lol - enough waffle - go poas girl!

    We were the same! It took us 12 months to get pg with DS, but then we've been pg 3 times in 4 cycles (including the m/c cycle, without that it's 3/3!)

    Good luck

    I had this same question a few weeks ago. I miscarried naturally and ovulated 26 days later but it all depends on when the hcg leaves your system I think because you can't ovulate of course when your body still thinks it's pregnant. I ovulated about a week and a half after I got confirmation of no hcg. I usually have regular cycles of 30 - 34 days and I estimate (never used opks before now) that I o around cd 18 - 20.

    So depending on your cycle and how long it took fir hcg to go down, yeah I reckon it's possible. POAS!

    Got my fingers crossed for you hun. Let us know how you go!

    Ds1 was conceived the cycle after a mc so it's definately possible.

    We conceived this pregnancy after a m/c and d&c, without AF returning.

    Working out rough dates, it happened about 6 weeks after the d&c.
