Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi SaraTJ, I totally agree with you when you say that it is comforting to know that other people are sharing the same problems. These are painful times for us and only can really be understood by those who have exprienced what we have! Have you been ttc since your D & C? The whole hcg thing is so confusing isnt it? Luckily my doctor is really supportive, both she and all of the other health professionals i have spoken with have told me that there is no evidence to suggest that waiting to conceive lowers the risk of mc. The only reason that some women are advised to wait is either because dating the pregnancy straight after a mc can sometimes be difficult or that the woman may not be emotionally ready to get pregnant again so soon. With regards to getting pregant if hcg is still detectable, like i said my g.p said that this was possible but that you wll not get your period until your hcg reaches negative levels. She said that i would probably be ovulating 2 weeks after my D & C (although i had signs that i was a week after??). The human body is such a complicated thing - i suppose that anything is possible. Hope you have some luck with your hcg levels this week- am having mine tested again on thursday so will see what that brings!
