Conception after MC - irregular cycles?

Hi all, I suffered from a miscarriage in December. I’ve had a period and am now ttc, I’m at the point of my cycle where I’ve missed the first 2 days of my period. I’ve taken 2 first response rapid results tests and both were negative. I’m wondering if my cycle is just messed up and it may be too early for a positive result? I promised myself that I wouldn’t be impatient and make ttc a chore but it’s taken over my life since my mc, as it’s all I want. Any help or advice would be great.

Are you charting? Do you know when you ovulated?

Rapid response are the least sensitive tests available. I’d try with a FRER.

I think I ovulated around day 24/25 but it was hard to tell. I just went off my cm. is that too late to ovulate?

Sorry I meant day 17/18. I was looking at the dates on the calander lol

Not at all, but it will push your expected period date forward too.

You can ovulate any day of your cycle but the Luteal phase (days between ovulation and period starting) will always be the same amount of days.

If you have a usual 28 day cycle and ovulate on day 14, then your luteal phase is 14 days.

If you ovulate on day 24 then your period will be due 14 days later, so on day 38.

It’s likely you’ve not missed a period yet.

Okay, Thank you. It’s difficult to know if my cycle is regular or not after the mc so I will wait longer. Then I’ll try those tests you mentioned if there’s no sign of my period. Thanks for the help!

I think you should start your own thread Littlestarr, it's quite rude and insensitive to make a post like that on a thread about cycles after miscarriage.

Kal194 my cycle has been all kinds of messed ups since my MC in December, luteal phase and follicular phase are different lengths plus I get two week wait symptoms I never got before which so closely resemble how I felt when I was pregnant.

I’m really sorry first time on this

Kal194 · 07/02/2019 11:24

Same here! I’m having mild cramps and real tiredness which was what happened when I got pregnant. But they could also be symptoms of my period coming so it is purely down to “time will tell”. I hate waiting though lol
