Miscarriage/getting pregnant again

I had a question for anyone that can maybe shed some light on my situation. My fiance and I have been together for 4 years and engaged for almost a year. We got our own place and we've been trying for 9 months to get pregnant. It finally happened last month but they said my hormone levels were not rising, so they said it was going to end in a miscarriage. Unfortionately, I started bleeding and lost the baby. I wasn't that far along so I didn't have to have a D&C or anything. The only thing that worries me is that I had an abnormal pap in July 09 and got a colposcopy in Dec 09, in which I got pregnant in Dec 09. Did I maybe have a miscarriage because my cervix wasn't completely healed after the procedure? I take  pre-natal vitamins on a daily basis as directed by my OB. I've been very depressed because we were trying for so long. :( I guess in some ways you have to think maybe there was something wrong and that was the bodies way of getting rid of something that could have not been healthy. Even tho they say to wait a month, or until you have your first normal period, we've started trying again. It's also depressing when everyone is pregnant around you and you wonder why, did I have to be the one to have a miscarriage. Is it possible that I can get pregnant right away after a miscarriage? I hear about it all the time but I dont really know if it's true or not?

Yes its definately possible to get pregnant right after a miscarriage!! I started to miscarry on November 13th of '09 and concieved the baby im pregnant with now on Christmas eve. I'm 8 weeks tomorrow now! My doctor told me that you are easier to concieve after having a miscarriage and it proves to be true.

When I miscarried in Nov. My bleeding started just before 4 weeks and I miscarried just before 5 weeks. My doctor also told me that because it was so early that it was probably chromosomal abnormalities and sometimes when it gets implanted into the uterus it doesn't happen properly and ends up damaging the egg. I'm sorry for your loss hun!! I know exactly what it is like. The ladies on this site are wonderful and really helpful, They've helped me through all my rough times and now I feel so much better about this pregnancy!!  If you ever want to know more feel free to message me!! Good luck!!

I'm so sorry for your loss!  I too have dealt with a miscarriage, I had a D&C, then waited one cycle, and now I'm pregnant again!

most miscarriages happen for no reason, I already had a healthy pregnancy so when I miscarried I was shocked it was happening to me, especially when so many of my friends (and even a few co-workers) were also pregnant!  It's hard dealing with everything, and the one thing that has helped keep me going is ladies in the Baby Dust group, seeing and hearing all of there success stories, and seeing how strong all the women on there are.

Sending some baby dust!  Good luck, hope you are pregnant again!

Let me begin by saying how sorry I am for you loss.  I also had an early m/c at 6w3 or 4d back in August.  I tried to think of anything and everything that might have caused it.  After talking to my doctor, he ensured me that we did nothing wrong and that something was wrong from the time the sperm met the egg.  Doctors do colposcopies on women all the time and though I have never had one, I really don't think that could be what caused it.  You are completely right when you said that the body saw that something was not right and stopped it from going any further.  I know what you mean about other people being pregnant around you, their everywhere!!  My sister in law and I were supposed to be 3 weeks apart, I lost mine and now she is about 36 weeks.  It is so hard to look at them and wonder what would I be going through.  She complains so much about everything and to me, finally one day I just told her that I would trade her in a heartbeat...she cut her complaining down after that and not that I would wish that on her and she knew that, I just meant I would love to feel everything she is feeling and when I finally get the chance to, I will savor every movement and every pain!  It is possible to get pregnant right after a m/c, a friend of mine from this site just had a D&C 5 weeks ago and just found out last week that that she is pregnant again!!  I am part of the group Baby Dust - Trying to Conceive after a loss and the women are wonderful in that group.  Please feel free to join us!  Once again, I'm so sorry for you loss and it was not your fault!  I'm sending you prayers and SSBD for when you start trying again!
