when can i try to have a baby again after a m/c?

so i went to the doctor today 9/29/10 and he told me that my u/s dont look good. he said that my sac was measuring 8 weeks but he doesnt know if there is a baby inside or if it is the afterbirth that is in there. he seemed pretty sure that i miscarried. he went ahead and sent me to go have my blood work done just to make sure but from the looks of it i miscarried. i wont know for sure til monday. he is going to check and see if my numbers are going up or down. i havent had any bleeding or cramping. i have had all the normal signs of being pregnant as far as throwing up and being tired and sore breast. i dont know when ill miscarry. if it doesnt happen in the next week then my doctor will discuss with me about doing a d/c if i did micarry. my question is if i do miscarry how soon can i starting trying to have another baby and how hard will it be or will it be easy? (i dont know if my doctor will do the d/c he wants me to try and have the miscarrige on my own but when can i start trying i havent bleed or nothing yet please help?)

I'm so sorry you are going through this. I had a natural m/c in July and my doctor told me to wait at least 3 cycles.

i just saw this on the doctors and they said it better to conceive 2-3 cycles after or within the first 6 months because the body is at the best. And the chances of having a healthy pregnancy are a lot better.

I did a TON of research on that after my miscarriage. After a D&C you should wait 2-3 cycles to let the lining of your uterus thicken again since they scrape it pretty thin. If you miscarry naturally than you can start trying again right away.

I wish you the best of luck and pray that everything does turn out ok.

If you have a miscarriage then once everything is out of your body you can start trying. Until everything is out you will continue to have pregnancy symptoms and not ovulate. After a miscarriage it can take anywhere from like a week to a year to get pregnant again. It all depends on your body.
