I had a D&C on July 12th because I
found out that the baby had died. So I
waited a week before having sex again with
my dh. We have been having unprotected sex
this whole time. About four days ago I
started having cramps and a really sore
back so I thought that af was coming. The
cramps would just come and go. Then this
morning I woke up and felt like I had a
hang-over but I don't drink so I don't
know what is going on. I still haven't got
my period.
So I am wondering if you think that it
could be possible to be pregnant that soon
after a D&C. I don't know how soon you
ovulate after a D&C, and if it would
be too soon to test. I welcome anyone's
thoughts and experiences with a situation
like this.
Thanks.

It is possible though not probable that
you could ovulate on time after a D&C.
On the other hand, it's possible that
your body is gearing up to ovulate about
now--I would often get cramps, sore
breasts, and backaches around ovulation
during my cycles or it could be signs of
PMS and your period will come on soon.
You could probably test now if you like or
wait a week or so and test again if your
period doesn't show (keeping in mind that
your cycle may be wacky because of the
D&C).
Symptoms can be really confusing and don't
necessarily mean anything; they could be
signs of ovulation, PMS, or early
pregnancy. When I found out I was
pregnant, all I had was a missed period
accompanied by period-like cramping--so
very little in the way of symptoms.
