Question

Pregnancy after Miscarriage

Just a quick question,

I recently had a blighted ovum and had a d & c on the 13th of July 2017. The bleeding lastest around 13 days with the last 3 days of that being very light. I took a pregnancy test on the 26th of July and it was a strong negative. Me and my partner starting trying again as soon as the bleeding stopped.
It's now 25 days since the d & c and I was wondering when I can take a test to find out if i'm pregnant again. I was going to do it a month after the d & c (which would be the 10th of August 2017), but is that too early? I'm really eager to be pregnant again so I don't want the disappointment of a negative if I tested too early.
My AF is normally spot on and I am always a 28 day cycle so I'm just wondering whether it's a good time to take it?

A MC can do all sorts of interesting things to your fertility, from immediate ovulation to delayed ovulation. If you aren't tracking your fertility (ovulation prediction tests, temping, etc.) then it's a bit tough to know for sure! I'd say go ahead and take a test now, because you could potentially be pregnant already. Good luck!

It may still be too early. I've just had a miscarriage about the same time as yours and my ovulation was delayed afterwards. I'm currently only 5DPO now, which is certainly too early for a pregnancy test. That being said, there's always a chance! All the best wishes for us both to get a BFP and all the sticky vibes!
