Pregnancy&Lupus

Hello, I got pregnant in June and had a miscarriage in July. I was 7 weeks. Everything was pretty normal since I was in bed rest and took actions quickly. My biggest concern is how soon after can I get pregnant after a miscarriage. I have Lupus and during this time I was not taking care of myself but now I am being more careful. I am taking Prednisone 30mg and Plaquenol 400mg. Are they safe to take while Im trying to get pregnant? Do I have to see an high risk doctor before getting pregnant?
Thank you for your attention hope to hear from you soon.

I took plaquenil through my entire pregnancy with baby #2. I was told I could also take it while nursing, but chose not to. Have you been checked for Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome / Lupus Anticoagulant? This frequently causes m/c. I take 81mg asprin every day, especially while pg. You should see a Maternal Fetal Medicine specialist before taking prednisone while pg. I have heard both ways on it. Usually there is no harm in getting pregnant right after a m/c, but you should ask your Dr.
