Periods & ovulation post miscarriage

Hi all,

Had miscarriage 2 weeks ago, wne tto get th all clear today with another scan to ensure no pre conception tissue was left in my uterus....i got the all clear yay. She also told me that my ovaries are up and running again and so to expect my period soon. Hoping that this will arrive in the next couple of weeks. Told me to 2 wait 2 cycles before trying agin which takes me to mid january...i cannot wait to get trying again.... has anyone got any stories of periods after a miscarriage, how long you waitied before ttc and how long it took you to get pregnant? Very intrigued as i am desperate to be a mum.

You name it, we've tried it...LOL.  I have tried the OPK tests and I have been trying to chart my temps (BBT).  If I dont have luck this month I might invest in a fertility monitor.  They are more expensive but more accurate I feel.  Good luck!

Yes this site is so good, you can talk to people who know eactly how you feel. I was 9 weeks 2 days when i went for my scan but the baby had grown to 8 weeks 2 days, I had a natural miscarriage. Well I shall sit here and hope that my period arrives soon. I am sorry that you both have not conceived yet. Do you both use ovulation testing kits?

I'm so sorry for your loss.  All of the women here know the pain of your loss, myself included.

I had a natural m/c at 8 weeks.  My period came back 4 weeks to the day.  You will find varying information from doctors about how long to wait until you try.  Some say 3 cycles, some say 1.  But I believe that some of it depends on how far along you were before your loss and if was natural or D&C.

My doctor told us to wait 1-2 cycles before we TTC'd again.  We waited one.  AF after m/c and than after another AF.  IMHO and from being on MedHelp for over a year, I do believe that it is best to give your body, heart, and soul some time for recovery.  Let your body "reset" itself with an AF or two.

And I do agree with Dmarie, it can take a few cycles for your body to get back to normal.  Your cycles could be a little irregular, longer, shorter, heavier, lighter but its just your body readjusting.

It's has been over a year since my loss last Aug, but don't let my story scare you.  My DH and I have officially been diagnosed with unexplained infertility as we have been trying for over three years on the whole.

First of all, I am sorry for your loss.  I had a miscarriage in February but i had a d&c done so it took me 6 LONG weeks to get my first AF after that.  Unfortunately, I am still trying to conceive.  We are going on 8 months.  We waited 2 cycles after the miscarriage so it has been 10 months total.  But, some girls bounce right back into a healthy pregnancy with no problem.  One thing I will try to tell you is to be patient as your cycles can be a little messed up after a miscarriage.   I am tired of being patient..LOL.  I hope it happens fast for you.  Take care of yourself!  The girls on here are a great support system...
