Trying after a miscarriage........?

Question

I had a miscarriage on June 10 of this year, we were given the ok by the doctor on June 19....If I took a hpt today and it was negative, I guess I wanted opions on if you think it was accurate or not? I know I need to talk to a doctor to be sure, just looking for moral support more than anything. We go to the doctor on the 21 for blood work and all that good stuff, just going nuts waiting till then.

Answer 1

So sorry for your loss! :o( I miscarried my first child in Sept. 2002 with in 6 weeks I was pregnant again. And carried my son to term. And we are pregnant again with our 2nd child due in Dec. As my son's Godmom told me. It is God's way of getting your body ready for the real thing! Again I am sorry for your loss!

God Bless and Good luck!

Answer 2

You didn't say how long your cycles are. If your period is overdue, and you had sex shortly before ovulation, then your chances are pretty good. (A woman is more fertile after a miscarriage because of the hormones of pregnancy that are still hanging out in her body.) But most women do *not* get pregnant on the first try.

If you *aren't* pregnant, I would suggest you read _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler. The information in the book will increase your chances of conceiving.

Either way...good luck!!

Answer 3

I lost two trying after the last one I kind of gave up and God Blessed me three months later with the easiest pregnancy at the age of 33 with a beautiful boy that we named Shawn Derek, he's 21 now and never been sick, his nickname is Peanut and has stuck with him to this day. Never give up and when you stop worrying, then it will happen! I promise! Don't sweat the small stuff! Worrying is the worse thing you can do! Good luck and God Bless!

Answer 4

My sister miscarried about two years ago. As devastated as we all were, we realized that things happen for a reason.

About three months later, she discovered she was pregnant again. A few months into the pregnancy, we were all thrilled to find out that she was carrying twins! They are fraternal, and the most opposite boys I've ever met, but they are God's blessing to our family, and we know that He had a reason for ending the first pregnancy.

Good luck!

Answer 5

I got pregnant with my son within a month after having my 3rd miscarriage. I however, did have a + home pregnancy test. Sometimes it can take a month or two, or even longer to get your cycles back on track after a miscarriage. Good luck.

When can I take a pregnancy test?


The most asked question of any woman who is wondering if she is pregnant or not is “How soon can I test?” The answer to this question varies depending on what kind of test you buy. Before we go into the different types lets go over how they work and what they are looking for.

How do they work?

No matter what kind of Pregnancy test you buy, they are all looking for the same thing: HCG hormone. Human Chorionic Gonadotropin or HCG, is a hormone found only in pregnant women and is frequently referred to as the “Pregnancy Hormone”. The purpose of HCG is to keep the estrogen and progesterone at appropriate levels until the placenta has developed enough to take this function over. HCG production begins around 6-10 days after conception, when the embryo starts to implant itself into the uterine lining. Levels of HCG double approximately every 72 hours.

At-Home Pregnancy Tests

At-home pregnancy test are considered to be very accurate with a low occurrences of false positives. If used correctly they are about 98% accurate. The standard pregnancy test is only useful the day of your expected period or sometime after. It is best to use first morning urine since the levels of HCG will be concentrated and easier to detect. If you get a negative result but still not getting your period, you should wait a few days until your HCG levels have doubled and try testing again.

Early Prediction Pregnancy Tests

For the woman more anxious to find out if she is pregnant or not, there are at-home pregnancy test which are more sensitive and can detect lower levels of HCG than the standard at-home test. Most of the time these are more expensive than your standard home pregnancy test.

Since every woman is different and they produce different levels of HCG, there is not an exact day you can test using an early predictor. These more sensitive tests can pick up levels of HCG starting around 8 days after conception. However, HCG is detectible in the blood serum of only about 5% of pregnant women 8 days after conception. So remember, a negative result may in fact be a positive a few days later. Most early predictor tests say they can detect pregnancy about 10 days after ovulation (about 4 days before your expected period). However, the earlier you start testing, the higher chance of getting a false negative.

Blood Tests

Blood tests given by your doctor or lab are the most accurate of all of the tests. They also can detect a pregnancy sooner than any of the home tests. There are a few drawbacks of the blood test however, the results usually take a few days depending on the lab and they are more expensive. Blood tests can usually detect pregnancy about 8 days after ovulation (around 6 days before your expected period). Most doctors wait to give you the blood test until you have received a positive home pregnancy test.


Points to remember when using a home pregnancy test

* Try not to test to early. It is best to test once your period is late.

* The earlier you test, the more likely to get a false reading.

* HCG levels double every two days. If you get an negative test, wait 2 days before retesting. This will help you save on the amount of tests you use.

* Although many test say you can take the test at any time of the day, it is best to use first morning urine. This way, the test will get the most concentrated urine of the day. If you can not do this, try testing at least 4-5 hours after your last trip to the bathroom.

Good luck
