late ovulation after miscarriage

I had a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks.  I waited, per the doctor, for 2 cycles and now have begun tracking my ovulation again with Clearblue Easy Ovulation monitor.  

Before the miscarriage, I ovulated on day 15-17 and now I am on day 20 and still have not ovulated!  I am getting worried and don't know if I am not going to ovulate because my body is still screwy or if I am just going to ovulate on a different day now.

I am nervous and frustrated...

I am very sorry for all of your losses.  I too had a m/c last year.  I have spent a lot of time over in the m/c community and a lot of what I have read from women, is that a m/c can cause your body to do some screwy things.  It may just take a little while for it to get back on track.

Hi Hilly,

I also always ovulated around day 17 and I had a miscarriage in December. During my first cycle afterwards I ovulated on day 17, during the second cycle I stopped testing around day 18, but had a 40 day cycle, this cycle I had a positive test on day 21.
I am really worried about this as well.
I hope you had better results in the meantime?

Thank you so much for your comment...makes me feel better knowing that someone else has experienced the same thing.

I will get the sticks too-agree totally...the monitor worked like a charm when everything in my body was working-the miscarriage has wreaked havoc-

I wish you lots of luck.  Are you actively trying again?  We are and I am very nervous..aAgain, thank you!

Hi hilly.. I too nomally have a very exact cycle, with ovulation on days 13 or 14. and I had a m/c last months (6 weeks) and my monitor NEVER showed a high or a peak this month.  I went in to see my RE this Tuesday and had my progesterone checked and it was over 20, which ,means I did ovulate, but I still have no idea what day.
I also used ovulation predictor strips and I did get a few positives on those (cycle days 22-24), and I think they were right and NOT my monitor (worthless $150 gadget).  Normally my monitor is exactly right, but I guess b/c my hormones are all messed up, it didn't pick up ovulation.
So... you may have already O'd.  Or.. if you think you haven't, I would suggest getting some pee sticks, OPK.  :)
Im sorry about your loss.
