I had a mc in Aug. Had a period end of sep, then 13th of November. Well my AF hasnt come yet. day 28 was sunday. We bd on sat and sun coz i thought we were sfe, but i forgot abou the non af in OCT, if that makes sense. So what i mean is if my cycles are extra long after a mc, was i 'safe on days 28 and 29??? My cycle was approx 45 days between sep and nov!

thanks

What was your cycle like pre-mc? If it was closer to 28, it could have returned to 'normal' this cycle and if you had had sex at the right/wrong time you could be pg.

it's understandable mia, it might be worth either getting a test or using this

I do understand how you feel Mia, I miscarried twice this year too. Even a planned and wanted pg is very scary after mc.
I really would test.

thank you. I was on the pill for 3 years before! but before that my cycles were about 28 days.
It was 43 days between end sep af and nov af, so i thought maybe this cycle would have been longer iyswim. Beacuse if i am back to about 28 days i would have been safe on day 26 and 27 wouldnt i?
According to that calendar link, if my cycles were 28 days i could have been feritle. ooh i dont know. I'll leave it a week or so.

ISorry to hear about your mc. Have you had any tests? its horrible to think ive got to mc again before i can have tests, but thats how i see it

with ds i was 3 weeks when i tested. it was faint, but there. try next week? would it be good or bad?

mia84 · 12/12/2006 16:51

Wouldnt be really bad. I'm just a bit confused as to where i am in my cycle. im such a control freak
