Trying after a miscarriage

Hi Everyone, just wanted some advice as I am starting to get slightly nervous and stressed out!

I had a miscarriage 3 months ago (the baby died at 7-8weeks). Last month I decided to track my ovulation during the time I normally ovulate and got no smiley so I gave up testing and put it down to my system not being back to normal.

This month I was supposed to ovulate yesterday but still no luck (faint line on OPK and no smiley on clearblue). I have been getting my periods on time. Prior to the miscarriage my body was like clockwork, both period and ovulation.

Has anyone been through this?

Thanks!

Sorry for your loss. I can’t offer advice but yes I am going through the same thing. Except I am ovulating waaaay too early:( Before I was also like clockwork. I had a MMC, failed medical m/c followed by d&c 6 1/2 weeks ago. I am hoping my body is just getting back to normal. I hope you get your boy! Sending my blue dust.

Thank you! I’m sorry for your loss too :( hope you get your baby girl soon 💗
That’s interesting, I didn’t track my OV from AF, only after a week and a half.. it’s been negative since. When are you ovulating at the moment? I wonder if that means you can still try but just earlier on?

I wonder if you may have missed the positive.

I like you guys to start testing before the earliest you may surge before an early ovulation, so this is CD 7-8

Will try that if there’s no luck this month, thanks Atomic. Is it true miscarriages sway girl?

I ovulate normally around day 11/12 so I start tracking around day 8 usually. Last month I had some ewcm early so I tested. This month no cm at all :( but I tested because things were so weird last month. We dtd the morning after my positive LH but I’m not convinced I actually ovulated and apparently a very early ovulation (before day 10) is not good because the egg is immature so I don’t have high hopes. Trying to convince DH to do PGD with donor eggs or adopt because I’m really starting to lose hope.

I have read many times m/c sways girl but only the first cycle after m/c. Then I think the effect may not be as strong.

I swayed girl for over a year and miscarried a boy. So I’m kind of resolved that if I get PG again it will be a boy. Especially because I’m trying to do things to support ovulation like eat healthy fats and have acupuncture. I adore my boys so that’s ok if it’s a boy but if I can convince him then I’d rather guarantee a girl.

If you were not tracking maybe you missed the surge like AS said? Miscarriage can mess up your cycle. My miscarriage before this one, I didn’t ovulate for 30 days! So maybe you haven’t missed it, just keep checking. :)

Yes, but yours was long enough ago so we don't need to worry about that any more. :heart:
