But then today I have had a tonne of ewcm and O pains (I always get those around ovulation time) and I looked at my FF chart (which I have only been doing for the last 3 days) and it has possible ovulation for the next 3 days - so it made me google 'can you get pregnant with low levels of HCg in your system' - and to my shock, a lot of people were saying Yes!
Does anyone know much about this? ie - been through a miscarriage and know when they next ovulated etc?

I also tested on an OPK and it wasn't positive, but there was a darker line there than on the hpt..... interesting.....

I had a natural miscarriage, not a D&C, but this was my experience:

I had red bleeding through CD7, then spotting till CD10. I started taking opks on CD10 like I normally do since I tend to O on CD15. On CD14 and CD15 I had +opks like I normally do (they were negative from CD10-13) but no temp rise and I think my cheapie hpts were still super super faintly bfp. I then had negative opks from CD16-18 before they again turned positive on CD19-22. I ended up O'ing on CD 21, confirmed with a temp rise, so basically a week later than normal and I know my hpts were finally bfn at that point. My LP that cycle was normal too at 14 days long, but my best friend who had a m/c 3 months before me and a D&C ended up only having a 5 day LP and basically bleed and spotted the entire cycle post D&C.

Oh essnce, it's good to hear from you! I'm hoping and Xing everything I have that one healthy (hopefully X sperm) got through!! I'll be checking in more often now!!

I'm still crossing my fingers for a miracle for you. I'm glad you are getting hcg tested and another u/s on Monday. What were your latest hcg numbers? Mine were 6000 at 6.5 weeks when I started bleeding and just over 2000 two days later when my miscarriage was for confirmed for sure.

I am 6w2d I think. They did do a transvaginal u/s in the ER. My hcg at that point was only 513. It is extremely low. Yours was much higher than mine. Thanks for thinking of me! :)

Praying for a sticky 🎀 bean!

After emergency cs with ds1 I wanted to try for vbac for ds2 but allowed myself to be pressured into scheduled c-section (was thrown the whole think of your baby not your ego and it wasn't that anyway) and then I got shifted back due to a failed vbac so you can only imagine the comments I got then.... I actually shed a few tears today knowing that even if I'm lucky enough to get a bfp I'm not going to experience natural child birth and it just doesn't sit right with me. My mum gave birth to 4 kids, my sisters 5 between them why can't I????? I loved my ob for ds2 (went private) but she made it clear if I ever went back for dc3 it would be cs - no negotiation. We live in a relatively small city/large town so its not like I've got many options :(

I can completely relate. It's sad to know I'll never get that experience with a live child (VBAC'd my 20w5d stillborn). And I have had a good cry or two about that but honestly, I have done enough research to know that, while completely possible, the risks grow with each c/s. While risks are still small after 2 c/s, I seem to be the queen of hearing "it's unlikely" only for the "unlikely" thing to happen. So, as sad as it is to know I'll never experience that I have decided to focus on the positives of c/s :) You get to pick babies b-day, to a point anyway. No chance of you going overdue. Minimal, if any, false alarm trips to OB. AND since you just lay there and let the doc do all the work you have plenty of energy to spend doting on baby instead of being wore out from labor. It'll always be sad that we won't get that experience that, but how we look at the c/s could mean the difference between a pleasant memory or a bitter one. :hug2: You could always ask your doc if the curtain could be lowered for a moment when baby is pulled out. I did with my youngest. It's not exactly the same but it was nice to actually see him the moment he came out. :) Going to ask for the same next time!

Back story on me:
I'm jumping over here from the Aug 2ww thread even though I've pretty much been a lurker since my miscarriage in Oct 2014. DH doesn't want any more kids (we have 2 boys ages 12 and 6) and baby #3 was planned by me only (swayed for 7 months) and then ended in a m/c just shy of 7 weeks. I told him I was not going back on the pill so he's been doing pull out and sometimes even using condoms since my m/c. He even went for a vasectomy consultation, but luckily didn't go through with it yet! Both boys were oopsies after living a very boy friendly lifestyle, so I've continued to slightly sway since my m/c even though my chance of getting pregnant at 34 years old with the pull out method is pretty slim. I'm now 2dpo and DH just informed me yesterday that he doesn't think he pulled out fully 4 days ago, which would have been 2 days before O. So here I am in the 2ww hoping with all my might that 1 little sperm found it's way! I've been on the boards since November 2013 and have been swaying in some form or another since February 2014. Fingers crossed!

Oh, and DS2 was conceived during my August 2008 cycle and my last pregnancy was conceived during my August 2014 cycle, so I'm hoping August is the time of year my body likes to get pregnant and that August 2015 is lucky too!

So hopeful for you Essence!

Hi ladies. I'm not in the 2ww yet so I feel bad being here but I have a question you might be able to answer. I want to take my opks twice a day but have a REALLY hard time not consuming liquids. I honestly drink all day and feel miserable when I have to withhold liquids for hours. Is it really bad to test first thing? I know someone said they tested in the morning (Two maybe?) but I've read the hormone is really concentrated first thing so that's why. Does anyone have tips on how to get two rounds of tests in while still being able to drink?
