Sorry to hear about your loss.
When you are mentally ready to try again, I'd say go for it. The hospital said that they preferred I waited until I had my period, but as we were already trying again she said there was no risk to any future pregnancies. I had a miscarriage around the same time in my first pregnancy as you and I got pregnant immediately after (actually with twins!). I didn't even have a period after the bleeding of the miscarriage stopped, I too had a natural miscarriage.

I m/c naturally on jan 16th. I was only 4wks and 3days. I say if your body isn't ready right after a m/c then it won't happen. I was only 4wks so my body didn't have to go through a lot to get rid of the tissue. I passed several small clots and 1 walnut size one on the 16th. Bled light on the 17th then spotted on the 18th. My status right now is my LH is rising. If I do ovulate it will happen in about 2-3 days. I just hope my uterus is ready to except a pregnancy so soon. I will keep you posted.

I'm so sorry for your loss! A friend recently told me that most women have at least one miscarriage in there life, not all even know it. I was amazed how many of my friends and family have suffered the same thing as me, and there really is no good answer. The thing that makes me feel the best is just to tell myself that it happened for a reason, and that if I had the baby to full term that something may have been wrong with it.
Having a miscarriage is hard, and it does take time to recover emotionally (and physically), but after a while you'll realize that it's made you a stronger person.
As for when to try again, it really depends on a few different things. How far along you were(and the baby), and if you had a D&C/D&E or a natural miscarriage.
In either case, you need to make sure that your uturas(sp) is back to the correct size (you can find this out on a follow up apt, or sometimes you just know). If you were in the first trimester, from what I heard it doesn't take that long, maybe a few weeks? If it was later in the pregnancy, I'm not really sure as mine was early.
If you had a natural miscarriage, as soon as you are back to the right size, from what I read there is no reason to wait to TTC, and the only valid reason is to easily date the next pregnancy, and to make sure that you passed everything as some women think they get pregnant again then find out there having a miscarriage and didn't realize it was still from the previous miscarriage.
If you had a D&C I've heard to wait at LEAST one cycle, because they scrape out the lining and by having a cycle it will flush and replenish making a safer environment. I've heard many times that if you'r not ready to get pregnant then you won't, however if your lining is scraped out, and you really aren't ready that won't stop you from ovulating.
That all being said, many women have had good, full term pregnancies getting pregnant before they got AF. If you had a D&C I do strongly suggest you to wait at least till you get AF to start trying.
Also, you will find that dr's don't all say the same thing, don't be afraid to ask why. My first dr said 3 cycles and when I asked he didn't really want to tell me, but later said it was for emotional reasons. The midwife was the one who actually told me that waiting at least one or two cycles after a D&C is to help the lining as they do scrape a lot out. Some women also have other conditions where the dr may suggest they wait, for example if you've had several miscarriages, then they usually suggest a longer period of time.
