Answer
Dear Latha,

Thanks for your question. First of all, I have to say that you should make sure your are healed emotionally, psychologically, and spiritually before you become pregnant again. There is a syndrome of wanting to become pregnant to make up for the baby aborted. This would not be healthy emotionally so please think about what and why you are doing this. I would love to send you some literature about post abortion healing for free if you email me at DCHERYL51@yahoo.com

Usually your periods will be very irregular after an abortion. I can't tell you when you might be ovulating. If you want some information about Natural Family Planning, please lookup Natural Family Planning here on ALLEXPERTS.com and the experts name is Brigid.

Sincerely,
