2 miscarriages, do I ttc right away......

I have had two miscarriages back to back. The first one I lost in my 10th week, the fetus died at around 8 weeks. I miscarried naturally. The second one was a blighted ovum and had a scheduled D&C in my 10th week after I started bleeding. My doctor told me that I should wait 2 weeks to start trying again because it's probably a fluke that I miscarried twice in a row because of the variation in miscarriage. She said I don't need to wait for another period and that the only reason dr's tell u that is so they know when u conceived. I wanna start trying again because I think i'm ovulating now but i'm not sure it's the right thing to do. I'm scared to miscarry again. Anybody out there with advice or who have been through a similar situation? Thanks

Thanks everybody for your help and support. It's hard to deal with when friends and family don't really relate and when everyone arounds you seems to get pregnant and have healthy pregnancies with no worries in mind. It makes you feel alone and it's nice to have feedback from those who can relate.

Thanks girls!

I am so sorry for your miscarriages, I too have gone through this process and I understand how it leaves you feeling empty and less, well that is how I feel.  For me, after the 4th I decided to see a doctor and he advised me that an iui would be a good procedure for me. I took the shots and had the procedure on Nov. 23 and waiting to see if it took. I believe God that He will make this happen and Sabby if he does it for me, he will do it for you.  Stand strong and hold on, you will have your baby!

I m/c twice in a row. In Aug, went for 12 weeks scan and the baby had stopped growing at 9 weeks, I had a D&C.  Then I had one cycle and ttc and I feel pregnant again, this time, I m/c naturally at 7 weeks. I can say now that I dont think my body was ready to fall again so quickly.  I I have had 2 cycles now and I am going to wait for another 2 along with with taking more pregnacare conception tablets.  I am waiting for an appt with the Pre Pregnancy Clinic for them to run tests.  I am blessed to have a 2 and half year old daughter, she was born 8 weeks early.  I wish you the best of luck and just do what feels right.

I, too, am so sorry you have had to endure two m/c's, and back to back, no less. I pray that you never have to go through one ever again. As far as trying again, I agree with jeninky. If you're emotionally ready to try, then there is no reason to wait. I have even read that women frequently conceive soon after miscarriage and that it could be due (at least partly) to the residual pregnancy hormones left in their system. I have had a few early losses in a row myself, so I suppose it could be true. I wish you the very best! Sending you tons of SSBD! Happy New Year! :-)

hi, Sorry for your losses.  It is a difficult thing to go through.  I miscarried in Oct.  We didn't actually "try" for my Nov cycle because I was afraid it was too soon.  We started trying again on my Dec cycle, and I am 10 DPO, waiting anxiously to test.  If your doctor says that it is medically ok for you to try, and you are emotionally ok with trying, go ahead.  A lot of women wait a few cycles to recuperate emotionally.  Only you can make this decision, and I think, from the tone of your post, that you are ready to give it another go and have made up your mind.  So good luck to you! This could be a good month :)
