Post miscarriage

The first week after my miscarriage - when it was physically happening - was painful of course, but then that eased and I want having any pain. It's now 2 weeks and 3 days since the miscarriage started and I am hurting today. It's not the same pain, not cramps. It feels more like when I was doing Clomid cycles and the pain/discomfort leading up to ovulation. Like my whole uterus is just sore.
My mind immediately goes to worst case scenario - infection. So I'm wondering if this discomfort/soreness is normal?

I would ask your dr. to be on the safe side. But I do know from my experience that ovulation was extremely painful a couple weeks after one of my losses. So that is one possible explanation--ovulation. Hope you feel better. So sorry for your loss.

Thank you so much. I was kind of wondering if that might be what it was, but it helps to hear others' experiences.
I had been doing opk's since last week. The familiarness of the routine comforted me, I think. Plus I wanted to be able to know if my body was healing and getting back to a normal cycle. It was positive this morning, so that was reassuring that the pain is probably associated with that. Knowing someone else had a painful first ovulation probably kept me from panicking about that too. So thank you!
