Hello all! I recently had a miscarriage at six weeks(May 11). I went for a follow-up on June 6th and doc said everything was back to normal and PT was negative. He said I was free to try again after my cycle. Well it's been six weeks since the miscarriage and i have not had my cycle yet. on june 8th i had some pinkish spotting and that was it. i am nervous about taking another test at this point, but at the same time I don't want to wait too long in case i am expecting again. should i just take the test or wait another week or so? the doctor said my cycle should return 2 to 6 weeks after a miscarriage.

First I want to say I'm sorry for you lose. I to had a miscarriage in April. It took me 35 or 36 day after to get my first period. Which was June 1 and it was regular for me if not alittle heavy. But I was suspect that everyone is different. I was told it could take up to 40 to come for some women. I'm not sure what to think about the little spotting. You should ask your doctor. I have a wonderful midwife that I can call anytime to ask these kinds of questions. Anyways, I was wondering if your dr. did an exam on you on the sixth and that were the spotting came from. If that was considered your period on the 8th then it's way to early for a hpt to show anything. Not sure how long your cycles are but if your a 28 day one you probably haven't or is just getting ready to ovulate. If the 8th was implatation bleeding it should show the hormone I would think by now. I hate the waiting game it's driving me crazy to. I'm suppose to have my AF on the 28th of this month and I want to know now if I am or not. I have a good feeling I am but it's just a feeling. We need to make sure if the tests do come back negitive that there is always next month. Let me know how you make out. I hope I helped.
