Pregnancy after D&C

I had a D&C nearly a month ago and just got a faint positive.

Has anyone else got pregnant immediately after a D&C or is it more likely left over hormones?

Going to test again in a few days!

If it was a month ago I'd be surprised if it was hormones left over from the D&C. I got pregnant two months after mine but had a period in between.

I got pg 1 week after a d&C following a missed mc. My periods hadn't returned when I tested but I did get my GP to double check as I didn't quite believe the home test. I was effectively pg for a year!!
She's 11 now and awesome

Eek! I'm definitely getting my hopes up.

I might phone my GP and see if they can take bloods to check my levels tomorrow.

We only dtd once!!
Apparently the consultant did mention that a D&C can make you super fertile but I wasn't paying attention and DH " forgot" to tell me!!!
Fingers crossed for you

Oh wow, that's a good timing then!

We've DTD 3 times since the D&C, but I always fall pregnant really easily so fingers crossed.

I've had 5 miscarriages so hopefully this is our rainbow.

Thank you!!
