Ovulation after m/c question

I think I might be ovulating now because my CM is EW and stringy but it's only been about 12 days since what might have been the start of the m/c. Do you think it's possible that I'm ovulating so soon after a m/c? Do any of you see any reason why I shouldn't go ahead and try now? I started taking my temps on 8/29 (I've never charted before) because I thought when I started bleeding it was AF (now I know it was the beginning of my m/c). Anyway, my temps went from high to low and have been jumping all over the place ever since. If we do start trying again right away, will these temp changes cause a problem? I'm a little confused, can you tell? :) Also, when I got what I thought was AF on 8/29, I bought an OPK. Should I go ahead and test with it or will it be inaccurate because I do still have a slight hcg level? I've never used an OPK either so I'm not exactly sure how they work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Susan

Yes, you can and some do O right after a m/c. This was my third m/c (just 17 days ago) and I definately O'd this month. We are TTC and so ALL w/e we BD'd like crazy (partly just b/c we were in the mood.) And, I've had CM (not as much as normal) but I have had it for 3 days now!
Take your chance! You are most fertile RIGHT after a m/c. Go for it!!! I have no idea about your other questions. I've never used an OPK and I've never done BBT.
GL to you and start BD!!!

First of all, I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it is.
But I have a happy story! I had a very early m/c on August 10th (I was at 11dpo). It's now September 9th and I'm pregnant again, and this time I'm 16dpo. My cycle post-m/c was pretty normal (bleeding was heavier and slightly longer). I ovulated on CD15, which is normal for me. I didn't go to the doctor after the m/c because it was so early. Maybe I should have, but when I went to the doctor to get confirmation of this pg, I told her about the suspected early m/c and she didn't even comment on it!
Anyway, my point is that if you feel emotionally ready, go for it. I was told that your chances of conceiving during the two cycles following and early miscarriage increase by 50%. I'm living proof!!
BEST OF LUCK!!!

Just so you know, generally "true" EWCM comes the day before ovulation. If you're DH can muster the strength, BD, BD, BD!!!!
GOOD LUCK!!!
