I suffered a MC last week i was about 9/10 weeks but the pregnancy stopped developing at 5. I had to have Medical Management (tablets) to help things move along that was 8 days ago, i bled straight away. Ive now pretty much stopped bleeding so i took a test and it was still positive. When did people get a negative? I know it varys with people, just looking for others in this situation. Any advice on when i would ovalute now? Obs i know i need a negative pregnancy test before we can ttc again. Just looking for advice please xx

I had a miscarriage on 6th August (started naturally and then had surgical management to complete it), had bleeding and cramps for 9 days and finally got a BFN on Monday 20th so two weeks later. We have started DTD again but I'm not going to bother with OPKs this cycle so will just DTD regularly and hope for the best! I don't think I've ovulated yet as I haven't had EWCM but who knows! There is a ttc after miscarriage thread on the Conception board which has quite a few people in the same situation. Good luck!

@Rainbow714 I have a load of pregnancy test strips that I got from Amazon, so I started testing about a few days after the m/c started and eventually got the negative, and yes I had stopped bleeding by then. It was so weird testing and hoping for a negative, but I knew it meant we could start trying again so I was happy when there was no second line! x

I was advised by the hospital to come back if I still had any bleeding at all after 2 weeks, but I had surgical management so the advice may well be different. Maybe give them a call to check?

So i stopped bleeding 2days ago the day i got a negative pregnancy test, but ive started bleeding again? Any advice please? Or is it AF? So confused & slightly fed up after bleeding for two weeks! X

It took four to five weeks for me to get a negative. That was including almost three weeks bleeding after an 11 week loss.
