Pregnancy Info HOME

I had a miscarriage at 6wks on Feb 16. Prior to my miscarriage I was told I was infertile b/c I suffer from uterine polyps & have had a total of 3 D&C to help me b/c of excessive bleeding. I was on the BC Pills prior to my pregnancy. My husband & I are trying to conceive again and we believe I am pregnant again. After reading your messages, I am almost convince that I got pregnant right away. Would a pregnancy test show a positive test even if I am not pregnant, b/c of the recent miscarriage and the hormones going back to normal?

Hi, Chrissy if I were you I would get the bleeding situation looked at by your doctor as I didn't think it was the nor to be bleeding for as long as you have, just get someone to look into it to put your mind at rest,
Janet, Your miscarriage was a week exactly after mine, Mine was 9th feb, I am having blood taken on tuesday as I think I am pregnant again and hpt are positive, but I have been reading o another site today that hcg can stay in your system for upto 4-6 weeks, although my gp told me it's usually about 2 weeks or so, so there is hope for us yet, I would request a beta hcg blood test which will see how much hcg is in your system and they may take another blood test to see if the levels are rising as you see within normal pregnancy,
Good Luck, please keep me posted as we are in the same boat

I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks on March 10th. I had a DandC but I am still having some problems. I stop bleeding (and hurting) for a couple days then I start bleeding again. I've read that bleeding can continue for 7-10 days after a miscarriage, but is this also true after a D and C? Also, does anyone have any help for dealing with the emotion of the loss. We have been trying to get pregnant for over 6 years, and this was our first pregnancy. I wanted it so badly that I feel absolutely crushed. I want to try again, I will try again, but how do you keep your stress levels down as you worry it will happen again? That added stress can't be helpful to a second pregnancy.

You all should be taking your temperature with a basal thermometer. If you learn natural family planning you will know exactly when you ovulate, also speak with your doctor because you should be getting tested to see when your hormone levels are normal again. You can have anovulatory cycles (not ovulating) until your body hormones get back to normal. You should consider that you just delivered and need to wait the normal 6 weeks to be anxious about hormones being back to normal. Good luck to all of you. I just miscarried after 4 normal births but almost everyone of my friends have miscarried (some 3 or 4 times) and have had more children. Be patient and pray!!!

I had a miscarriage at 18 weeks, after having complications of placental abruption and low amniotic fluid.

I had bleeding after and up to a week after, I didnt get my period for a month or two after. Its still regulating its self. I do think that I might be pregnant again, and I am scared, it was my first pregnancy and I am scared that it might happen again, I dont know that I could do it again. after I had a miscarriage.

Hi Jackie i would just like to say sorry for your loss, all i would say is give it time it is a great heeler you never forget you just learn to deal with the pain of loss each day for me got a little easier my friends one had three m/c and she helped me alot and gave me this advice and it helped me through. The other like you lost her first at 24 weeks she had three further successful pregnancies with no problems.She even got cought at 40 and he's a great little 10yr old football player now. Good luck girl don't give up.

thanks, for responding. I just didnt really have much of anyone to talk to. my family doesnt seem to understand, I have a great boyfriend now, who he supports in every way he can.

I had a bad situation while I was pregnant, my ex left when I was pregnant and a ton of other things happened after that.

I just dont know if I could do it again, which right now I dont think I could get pregnant, as much as I want to after losing Adrian at 5 months.

I skipped my period though, and think I might be pregnant, but I am also scared because I got something from my ex, and its something that doesnt go away, and I have to be extra carefully sexually, and that I now have a level 2 cervical cancer, and that it could cause serious birth defects to a baby.

so its all pretty scary stuff right now. my boyfriend now is great, and he knows all of that, I am more just afraid he would leave, just like my sons father did when I got pregnant, but as much as he says he wouldnt, he would be there for me. it still makes me wonder ya know? I dont know if anyone has ever been through that.

Sorry about your m/c. I had mid cycle spotting after my m/c as well. I think it is just your hormones out of whack because it was not normal for me either. I actually had it during my second cycle and was a little worried because we started trying again.. needless to say, even with the mid-cycle bleeding, I did get pregnant. Good luck.. I hope things get more normal soon.

yeah I had spotting for a bit after, then it went away, and it was nearly two months before my period came. my boyfriend isnt taking to the news that i might be pregnant so well, because hes scared, and he doesnt know if he can go through that again, as well as me and him together, it was really hard the first time, but he says he will be there. I want another, but im just scared. but soon we will find out.

i think the thing is that it was weird, for a m/c cause it normally doesnt happen at 18 weeks it normally happens earlier than that.

Sorry jackie to hear about your problems i hope it ends in good news for you i really hope everthing works out fine x you take care now.

Kitty,
I experienced the same thing. Exactly 4 weeks after I miscarried I got my period which seemed to be of a normal flow. Then only 6 DAYS after it ended I got another period. I'm just as curious as you to know what's going on with my body. I was so happy to think things were "getting back to normal" so my husband and I can try again.
