i have had 3 early mc.....
the HCG from the PG can be out of your system within 7 days if your MC was early, so i would wait a few days then test.
all my MC have been before 6 weeks, i have always done a tests after the bleeding stoppped, and all three were BFN.
After my 2 nd MC i tested after AF hdnt showed up after 28 Days and that was BFP but ended shortly after.
Test when you are ready- if you have any concerns you can go straight to the docs.
Godd luck!!

hi rose not sure i can hold out 10days after af.....i think the wait will kill me! i have 2 clear blues upstairs waiting lol. my cycle is a bit weird as i went to drs in may because af was late all bfns dr did blood test which showed neg, af eventually arrived 18 days late. my jul af was only 5days late so thats good. im hoping this month i wont be too late (or i wont come on at all if ttc has worked this month...well see!) do you have kids already? i have 1 dd 3yrs and a stepdaughter 9yrs from dhs previous relationship

Thanks lisa for letting me know your af was a bit later on your second af.
deeja- like you i mc-ed early july - i tested 4 days after af and then 3 days after that mc-ed. First time im mc'ed before i fell for DS my af returned to normal . Fingers crossed me get our bfp this month - you have to keep me updated as im also just late - think i will test in a total on ten days after when af should have been due if af has not made an appearance.

My 2nd af after mc was 4 days later than usual, if you are unsure hunny, wait another couple of days.
Good luck.

hi rose im in a similar position to you! i mc early july, we had only known 6days that i was pg but it was still very sad. i waited until aug to have a normal af then started ttc after that. now my af is 1 day late and im not gonna test until im a week late, im also not using any early pg tests like i did last time (we used first response) if i hadnt tested and got my bfp it would have saved a lot of heart ache and we would never have known i was pg. so this time round im trying to wait as long as pos. dh doesnt want me to test until af is very late (said hed rather i test when im starting to show lol) but well see Ill prob do a test thurs next wk if af hasnt arrived. good luck to youxx

Hi ladies i mc'ed in July shortly after finding out i was pregannt... my af returned 30 days after mc (first day of bleeding of mc) and my period was light. My af cycle noramal is 26 to 28 days long (normally 27 days it turns up) so if im counting from my last cycle of the 8th aug i should have been due from tue 4th to thr 6th sept. around my due date of af i had symptons of af like normal but not as bad... now its the 07th sept and ive not even told my husband im late as i dont want him to get excited and to be honest im worried if i do it and its neg then i be wondering where af is.
has any one felt when they missed there period will rather wait a week or so before testing after there due date.

deeja - Yes i have one ds whos is now two and half years old.
i think its that suspence of waiting isnt it and not knowing. nearlly another day gone and still no sign.
i forgot to say since my operation my once normal 4.5 days of bleeding have gone and now if im lucky im 1.5 days bleeding and this concernes me that if it just a case of no show period. im 38 this year and .My mum things im on the change (not a very postive lady my mum)
