Getting pregnant after MS

Hi ladies,

I stopped the pill more than 18 months ago, and since January I've really been trying to get pregnant.
They say you shouldn't really be rushing into it, but I just can't help myself.
I have a 34-day cycle, which I think is quite long, but we did manage to get pregnant. We were pregnant.
Around 7 weeks pregnant, I got really bad morning sickness, and in the hospital they diagnosed it as HG (Hyperemesis Gravidarum). At 8 weeks and 3 days I had a good ultrasound, but when I was 12 weeks, I unfortunately got the news that the baby had stopped developing at 8 weeks and 5 days.
I was completely devastated. I know that 1 in 10 is a miscarriage, but I felt it was so unfair that I had suffered for weeks only to have it taken away from me. Another hard pill to swallow is that you look forward so much to that 12-week milestone because you're supposed to feel more secure then... well, you just have to move on and carry on...
Mentally, it's not easy for me because they assure me that it really was HG and that I'll definitely be sick again in the next pregnancy, just like the first one. No one can guarantee that it won't go wrong again. Not very motivating, but well, it has to be.
Because I want a child so badly...
In the end, I chose to let my body do its own thing and didn't opt for a D&C.
A week after the bad news, I lost the baby, bled heavily for another week, and then cried non-stop for about 2 weeks...
But now; on May 22nd I lost the baby. And on June 11th, I think I already ovulated. Is that possible? I mostly read stories saying it takes 6 weeks... which for me is definitely not that long...
I'd love to hear your thoughts...
