I just ovulated on CD39 post miscarriage!! Now in TWW- My story

I have read a lot of forums about women asking about ovulation post miscarriage and I thought i will share my story here if it helps anyone. Especially when it is very different from the standard google answer of 'ovulation can happen in 2 weeks after miscarriage'.

I miscarried at 9 weeks (baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks) on May 29th through induced medication. This was my second pregnancy and i have a 3.5 years old son. We conceived on first try both times and i am now 34. Dr tracked down my HCG through blood work and it took almost 5 weeks to come down from level of 45000 to level of 2. I started tracking ovulation when HCG hit 20 on cd27 when I also got the first negative pregnancy test. I used clear-blue digital OPK. Finally, after a very long wait, i got the solid smiley on CD38 and based on ovulation cramps, i think i ovulated on CD39 and now I am in TWW at 2dpo (my dr allowed us to try again after HCG drops). I did not get proper period since miscarriage but i spotted for 4 days in between. Normally my period is always 30-32 days and i never used OPKs before.

It has been a painful and long experience. Miscarriage alone is physically and emotionally draining and on top this whole process of tracking and waiting is very painful. I hope that with ovulation happening, i will either get my period in the next 12-14 days or a BFP. I will keep you posted.

My sincerest best wishes to all of you who are also trying to conceive, with or without prior loss. May you get your baby soon.

Hi @SZ12 just wanted to say sorry for your loss, good luck.

Little bit about my ttc journey, i am 27 fiancé 28 getting married in august, been ttc for 11 months now.

Unfortunately had a missed miscarriage end of January at 12.5 weeks found via our scan. D&C was required, period took forever to come back.
Amazingly end of march found out was expecting again unfortunately naturally miscarried a 6 weeks.
Been trying since and had no luck just negatives and AF making a appearance with a vengeance, have you found you've had worse periods since??, I'm so much heavier and cramps kill me every time.

Due for ovulation this weekend been tracking and line is getting darker so hopefully my peak will be 11th/12th really hope July is our month, my due date for first pregnancy is end of month so getting my BFP will really help me get through it.

Good luck sending baby dust to you.
