Hi there. Im sorry to hear bout your loss. To answer your?questin, d&c means dilation & curettage (the procedure used to scrap out the tissue and everything after a miscarriage or some cases abortion). hcg levels are what determines that you are in fact pregnant or if they are low can determine miscarriage. Your hcg leves are suppose to double every like 36 hours i believe. af= aunt flow, dh= dear husband. Hope that helps =)

I am so sorry for what you are going through and your loss.  I would at least wait until you get your period after the miscarriage has completed.  That way you know your body has gotten back to it's normal routine, and if you do get pregnant again right away they can determine your due date easily.  I waited 4 months after my miscarriage more so for emotional healing.  I had to have a d&c procedure, so the doctor recommended waiting 3 months.  I have heard a natural miscarriage docs recommend waiting one cycle for the reason I stated above.  Please let me know if you have more questions and the best of luck to you!
