Hi ladies! I had d&c on February 23rd at 15 weeks. I'm wondering if any of you know when ovulation should occur after a miscarriage. We decided to start trying asap. Thanks!

Unfortunately it all depends on your body. I got my first AF 42 days after my D&C. So I could have ovulated about 2 weeks before that point. I started temping again about 2 weeks after my D&C so I would have an idea as to when AF would show her face. We were told to wait one cycle and we did so I wasn't worried about catching ovulation for pregnancy purposes.

Agree with @bntfroggie. It will depend. Please first make sure with your provider that it's ok to try again so soon. Providers have different recommendations based on each patient's specific scenario. I was told to wait for two AF's. For me, I don't believe I ovulated after my D&C/first AF. The first full cycle after D&C I'm not sure I ovulated either (I wasn't temping at the time but based on odd CM/CP). I started temping the second cycle and it confirmed ovulation, and I got pregnant that cycle. Luckily for me, my cycles went right back to 27-29 days, but many women have irregular cycles after D&C, so don't be surprised if that happens to you. I highly recommend temping, using the Fertility Friend app, and reading Taking Charge of Your Fertility if you haven't. It's life-changing! Also, if you haven't been there yet, the TTCAL board is full of awesome ladies with lots of experience and knowledge to help you. I wasn't there long, but the community there is great.
I was told to wait a cycle after my d&e, but it took two months for my hcg to drop. (My d&c was at 11 weeks.) Everyone is different, like the PP's said. I wish you luck.
P.S. If you use opk's, be warned that lingering hcg will turn them positive.
