Q: Menstrual Period after 2 DNCs

We discovered on the 2nd of July that I my baby had died (I was 14 weeks along). We scheduled the D&C for the 4th of July. I was readmitted to hospital a week later with an infection. After intravenous antibiotics for 48 hours, I was released from hospital. One week later I was still bleeding. I went and saw my gynae again and he put me on a strong course of antibiotics to relieve the bleeding. The bleeding became light spotting, but grew heavy again as soon as the course of antibiotics was completed. A week later I was readmitted for another D&C.

2 weeks after the D&C I started my period again. I feel extremely drained and nauseous. The bleeding has continued for 5 days but seems to be dissipating.

I am very confused about my ovulation cycle. This period has come 5 weeks after the first D&C and 2 weeks after the 2nd.

The symptoms are very similar to pregnancy, but I don't understand if it is even possible to be pregnant so soon after a D&C (or 2).

Please help.
