36 blighted ovum mc, can't wait to try again...success?

Hi ladies, I'm 36, I'll be 37 in August and I just had my first pregnancy end in a mc due to a blighted ovum. I went in at 7w3d and was so excited to see a baby, instead it was an empty sac and no fetal pole...never been more heart broken in my life. Two rounds of cytotec and nothing so I had a d&c two days ago.
I can't stop googling everything about fertility, mc, increasing chances, you name it, I've researched it.
I have never wanted anything more than to have a family with my husband. Please tell me some good stories by there are so many that are so discouraging and I need to snap out of this depression.

Any luck with pregnancy after a blighted ovum? Any tips for conceiving at 36?

Thank you :)

I hope I have a story to share that I get pregnant soon! It's the hardest thing I've ever had to deal with! I'm tracking everything, but need to wait now till I get a period since I just had the d&c on Tuesday :(

Maca root is great for increasing fertility. It regulates hormones so if there is an imbalance, it'll help. It'll boost your libido too lol... My friend takes it for a bigger butt. So it's good for lots of things.

You both should eat at healthy and exercise as well. When you do conceive, it'll be easier on the body.

I had the same thing last year and was so distraught and obsessed over getting pregnant again. We tried for 6/7 months and had to go to doctors for anti depressants and so unwilling.  In December we had a break from ttc and on January we were moving house and had sex once..... low and behold I'm 16 weeks pregnant tomorrow!!!!!!!People say to forget about it and it is absolutely true. Relax and have faith if you got pregnant once it will happen again xx

Track your ovulation. Have sex every other day. Your husband should take zinc and folic acid and you should take prenatals. Try not to obsess and stress or else it could make it harder to conceive.
