Waiting on AF *sigh*

krisztina33

So I had a "normal" period, the first month I was pregnant, and then one after my MC but while my HCG was still over 25.

Now that everything is back to "normal", no sign of AF (please do not take this as a "drive-by" or AW "I think I might be pregnant" type of thing--I am definitely not pregnant--tested this morning, and DH and I have been TTA this month anyway).

Did any of you ladies have cycles at all while you were pregnant and then experience a delay after MC??  I know cycles get wonky after MC but I guess I was just hoping since I had one right after the MC (which clearly wasn't a normal one) that I would be lucky...ugh

It's just such a slap in the face (especially after yesterday).  Like the universe is teasing me

TIA for any shared experience!

What cycle day are you on? Do you chart? Did you O this cycle? 

Even 7+ months out from my m/c and D&C I still have the occasional crazy cycle. 2 cycles ago, it was only 16 days (mine are normally 28-31). I was not charting that cycle, so who knows what was going on in there.

After m/c, you might have a new *normal*. If it's been 60 days since your last cycle, and BFNs every week, call your doc. Until then, I think you have to wait it out.

I'm on cycle day 26 (mine are always 25 and I usually start spotting around 23/24)--I didn't chart anything this month (TTA), but pretty sure I O'ed around CD 11 (I always have O pain and definitely had EWCM).

Ugh.  I figured it was a waiting game.  Thanks for the info!

I had the same thing happen with my first mc.  I was 4 weeks out of D & C in starting the first one, then month 2 35 days, then back to 4 weeks.  With this mc, I am on cycle day 43 and started prometrium a few days ago to get a jump start.  Prior to the prometrium, I felt like I was starting but nothing was coming out. Cramps and moods and no AF has me worried.  Good luck and so sorry for your loss.
