[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone help me understand.  I bled for 4 days like a period, heavier than normal, but not crazy.  Yesterday was day 5 which was just a tiny bit of spotting. If it had been a regular period I'd be ovulating in a few days.  Is that right?  I feel like I may or may not ovulate but in not sure if it would be 3 weeks from now or days away.
I guess the best way to tell may be to monitor cervical mucus when it returns and there is zero bleeding.
When people say they got pregnant again right away, do they mean literally in 2 weeks?[/quote]

Sorry but there is a lot of variation here.  You may see more bleeding in the next few days, or not.  Then you may ovulate on time, or late-- even several weeks late.  It just depends on when your body is ready to re-start the process that leads to ovulation.  Your body will do it when it is ready.  You may also have an annovulatory cycle with some mucus signs but no actual egg, and that is normal too.  So follow the mucus and temp if you temp.

Some people mean literally in 2 weeks, but they may also mean they got pregnant at their next ovulation, whenever that was.  Or that they chose to skip a cycle and then got pregnant right away on the next one.

If I may tell you something-- I tried to get pregnant immediately after an early miscarriage, and I really regret it.  I placed waaaaay too much pressure on myself to get pregnant and basically gave myself an anxiety disorder that has taken a year to get over.  It really is amazing how one little chemical pregnancy caused me such distress, but it did.  I was desperate to get pregnant, and still am, but I really wish I had taken the longer view and given my body time to rest.[/quote]
