Hi!
I'm so sorry about your loss!  You are right that no one should have to endure that, but many of us do.  You should be able to start trying again right away since you don't mention any surgery ( after surgery it is better to wait 2-3 months).  The miscarriage proves one thing though, you CAN get pregnant!  Your next pregnancy is likely to carry.

Good luck!
