Hi! Im new to this forum. Hoping someone can have some insight on my situation. Sorry for long text!

Me and my husband startet trying for a baby in 2018. We got pregnant right away, miscarried at aprox 5+0, and got pregnant after my period returned (bfp 11 weeks after miscarriage). I gave birth in 2019, got my period back when our daughter was 6 months, and conceived little sister straight away.

We are now trying for baby no 3, but have been having some issues.

I stopped breastfeeding when little sister was 3 months, and got my period 4 weeks after. Ovulated early (cd10 - I usually ovulate around cd 20-22) but startet spotting at cd17 and got my period two days later. So my luteal phase was only 8 days. I also bled for 10(!) days.

After that i ovulated at cd22, but once again my luteal phase was on the shorter side (11 days). I also spottet for 8 days before my period showed up.

Next cycle I ovulated at cd20 and got pregnant. Started spotting at 6+3. Had an early scan that showed a tiny beating heart, but also a large amount of blood in my uterus. The midwife said she had never seen anything like it. Went back at 7+0 because of more spotting, and the heart had stopped. Natural miscarriage at 7+3 weeks. My midwife said that the blood in my uterus should go away along with the miscarriage.

I ovulated again cd21, whick was last weekend. (Got a positive digital opk cd 20. I had both negative pregnancy test and several negative opks before, plus i checked cm and cervix, so I know it wasnt just leftover hormones from the pregnancy causing the positive opk).

I started spotting only three days after ovulation, and have been spotting since. This is my sixth day of spotting. Took a pregnancy test yesterday (7DPO) due to sudden shooting pain in my pelvic area, but it was of course negative.

Does anyone know if spotting and a short luteal phase is normal after pregnancy/breastfeeding and after miscarriage? We conceived our daughters so easily, Im starting to worry that there might be reasons for concern...
 
I would have it checked out hun. It might still be your body getting back into shape after the pregnancies. But since it seems like a reoccurring event, I would call a GP or gynaecologist to get some answers.
Good luck TTC baby number 3!x
