TTC after miscarriage

So I am def. going to TTC after this miscarraige is finished.  I have been reading different things about when to try again.  Some things say 3 mos, some say as long as the m/c was early you can try right away because it is just like having a normal period.  I think that I would like to try right away.  I am not even a full 5 weeks, so if I weren't trying I probably would have just thought my period was 1 week late.  Has anyone else ttc right after m/c?  What was the outcome?

I'm soooo sorry to hear about your m/c. I'm a little behind. It gets hard reading everything on here sometimes. You are in my prayers!!

I am currently in the process of having my 4th m/c.  All but 1 were natural.  They were never back to back just over the years.  I had to be on progesterone with my 2 girls and this time round my doc didn't seem to think that I would have a problem and didn't put me on meds - guess I need a new doc.

Thanks guys.  You are all so wonderful and it is nice to know you're not alone.  My hubby sure doesn't give me the support that I can get from you guys - he is not and never had been a talker.  We did talk about TTC again and we are both ready to try again - I think if I had been further it would have been harder to try again, but I know that being less than 1 week late for my period it was prbably a chemical pregnancy. And since my hcg went from 199 to 40 in 48 hours I don't think it will take long to get back to 0. (I hope).  I just want to be preggers again so badly - We know that everything happens for a reason, it's just sometimes hard to accept that.

I think to wait for 1 cycle is normal. The body (uterus) needs time to recover, the level of B hcg to decrease to 0 and you cant start from the begining. I don`t know, maybe is just my opinion but I had 2 miscrr. and I needed pauses between the pregnancies. Now I`m pregnant for the third time and it happened 4 month after the second miscarr. and I was suprised and scared because it was too early for me.

The only reason docs say to wait, is so they can tell how far along you are.  As far as I know, it isn't unhealthy ttc immediately, it's just harder to know how far along the pregnancy is.

I just had a m/c on Feb 7 it was a chemical pg (natural m/c). I was told to wait for AF anyways. We did not wait and just 4 weeks later I am pregnant again, except I had my first blood draw this morning and my hcg level was only 10. It might be another chem. pg. Will I think I should have waited if I m/c again? Yes, I will wish I would have waited. I am praying though that on Monday, my hcg is higher. I will keep you posted.

I've heard of lots of people who have had luck after a M/C.....some say that you're more fertile right after one, although I'm not sure how much truth there is to that......I had a D&C in Dec. and have had no luck since, but everyone is so different....I just figure that when my body is ready, it will happen...same goes for anyone else who has gone thru this........So sorry that you have to go thru this and tons of luck TTC!

I had my m/c in Jan & I wasn't that far along either, but I waited for my one normal cycle, which was last mth & my husband & I will start ttc again this mth, so hopefully BFP this mth. My doctor told me to at least wait one normal cycle & I thought that was good for me b/c that way you'll know your body is back on track. Did you have an natural m/c?
