Hello, I am currently 18 weeks pregnant in a PG that was conceived 2 weeks after a MC.(I got a positive pg test 4 weeks after the start of the MC, if that makes sense).
I have also had other MC in the past and it has taken months to conceive again afterwards although I felt really pregnant before this I wasn't- I think the hormones in first couple of cycles after a MC can be all over the shop and it can be very confusing.
I think your sore boobs, nausea etc could be early PG symptoms, or could be your hormones in a state and trying to regulate your cycle rather than a pregnancy, it isn't really possible to say without a test.
I don't suppose the advice you were given after the MC included the really helpful idea that you should get a negative PG test before you start trying to conceive again, did it? For some reason they don't give this advice often enough.
((The problem is without this negative test it is hard to know whether if you get a positive test now it is positive because of a new pregnancy, or positive because of hormones from the last pregnancy)).
I would say with an early pregnancy loss, you are more than likely to get a negative test by now, as it is unlikely to still be old hormones hanging around, and so I would test to see what it says. If it is negative you know either that you aren't pregnant (and therefore can trust any future tests to be accurate if they are positive) or it is too early in the pregnancy to get a positive, and test again in a few days time.
As a rough rule of thumb, docs tend to add +1 week to conception dates if you conceive straight after a miscarriage without a period in between. eg if you normally have a 28 day cycle and ovulate on day 14, they would assume you had ovulated on day 21. So it might be possible to be pregnant but as it is only 4 weeks since the miscarriage, it might not show up on a test till you are nearly 5 weeks as this would really only be 2 weeks since ovulation.
Does that make sense?
to you...it is really hard ttc emotionally after a mc x
