Yes you can it has just happened to me ! I had a silent miscarriage , a number of weeks  later I had to go back to the hospital due to symptoms and they did a blood test which came back the hormone levels where very high they asked me back for a scan and there it was heart beating away I was 6 and a half weeks gone which was the time I was going through the miscarriage . We didnt have sex during or for some 2 wks after so the baby had been conceived from sperm before my body had expelled the miscarriage . To say I was shocked was an under statement.

Absolutely.  Sometimes, miscarriages are the bodies way of preparing itself for a pregnancy.  Many woman become depressed after a miscarriage, and feel responsible.  Don't this is very common, aften a way of the body practicing for the real thing.  If you continue to have miscarriages, then it is time to get a thorough check out.  In the meantime, you want to make sure everything is cleared out, so always a good idea to get an ultrasound to make sure the womb expelled everything and that there are no obstructions left preventing fertility

Your levels can go down in a   miscarriage but rise again if there is tissue left that did not expel.   Left behind tissues can regenerate and also be a cancer threat so if your beta's are going down and then back up, I would have the Dr. Check you out better...you perhaps have tissues still in there that need to get taken care of.

I started bleeding during my 5th week of pregnancy and soon found out that my hcg levels were extremely low...33 to be exact. I went back for another draw a few days later and my levels dropped to 25 which confirmed that I was miscarrying.  My doctor wanted me to go back a couple weeks later to make sure that my levels had dropped below 5, but to her and my surprise they had gone up to 70. My doctor suspected I was pregnant again, but I have never stopped bleeding from my miscarriage and am still bleeding to this day. I'm confused because I don't think that your levels can fluctuate up and down that drastically if you're retaining something but I don't understand how I could have gotten pregnant when I was bleeding the whole time. Any advice?

Yes, you can get pregnant whilst miscarrying. You will not seriously injury yourself having sex before six week if you choose to. Your body takes a few day to heal. Whether people choose to have sex straight away is up to them, if they feel ready. People really should try doing a little research before popping their all knowing answers on here. It makes a stressful situation worse. 

As for how people are affected mentally, varies from person to person. No one has the right to make judgement on whether it badly affects someone and what they should or shouldn't do. For me I was 10 1/2 weeks when I found out I was miscarrying as I had been bleeding lightly for three weeks. I had a d&c at 11 weeks. I am now 8 weeks , this overlaps with my miscarriage. 

I was not devastated, I was stressed, this is a natural process and I was able to process the miscarriage this way, it was not right, the cake didn't rise in that instance. But I understand that it can effect people more profoundly, who are deeply hurt and depressed by this occurrence. I know we all look to forums for answers, maybe people should take more responsibility and care with their answers.

I was 4 weeks along and startede to discharge and got checked out,they said the baby was ok and my blood test was at 80 and that it could have been caused by stress, but told me to come back. After a week of dischrge -no pain- I went back and my feance went along, as we where waiting for test resalts we had sex in the hospitol room and found out 20 minnuts later I had a miscarrage and my hormone level was below 5. The doctor said to use condoms for at least a month untill we try again (whitch we have) and now a month later I have morning sickness sore chest ext.

Wow this is very interesting to read, on the 7th of jan 2010 I had my 12 week scan and was told my pregnancy had ended at about 5 weeks, I was unaware as my body was still acting pregnant, I was getting morning sickness, I had started to show etc, the day of my scan I started to bleed and over the next few days I had the miscarriage, I lost a lot of blood and clots even though there was only 4mm worth of embryo, I went back to the hospital on the 21st of jan to see if it was all gone, and was told it hasn't which has shocked me because of the amount of blood and big clots that I passed, It was only a small dot there so they are leaving me for now and I have to go back this friday for another scan. I have been wondering if I could actually be pregnant as I have started having sickness again and my breasts have grown and I'm feeling very tired. Me and my partner were having unprotected sex the whole time I thought I was pregnant, which was for about 7 weeks,since the miscarriage we haven't had sex as I have been bleeding etc. Now I'm wondering after reading this if that dot thats there is actually another pregnancy,who knows, I won't get my hopes up as its highly unlikely but maybe.

Yes you can get pregnant while your miscarrying, i lost my baby at 16 1/2 wks and at 20 wks they had to surgically extract the fetus, I was already between three and five weeks pregnant. I never showed positive on a pregnancy test until the 20th wk, thats how they found out. I'm thirteen weeks now and everythings fine, its very rare, but possible. In my case I had placenta previa and it was blocking me from miscarrying, but one determined sperm and my body ovulating, and wham!!

To comment on the comment, not all miscarriages have to deal with pain and blood. There are different types of miscarriages. Yes, it is possible to get pregnant while having a miscarriage just depends on the type of miscarriage you have had. I had a missed miscarriage and got pregnant before everything was expelled from my uterus.

No-not all people have some extreme amount of pain or bleeding and cannot have sex, in my case-you are completely wrong. Please do some more research before spreading your "knowledge" to other concerned readers...thanks.

Under NO circumstances should you have sex during or for 6 weeks after a miscarriage.  Doing so can cause serious injury to you.  As mentally and physically painful as a miscarriage is  how can you even THINK about sex??
