miscarriage

[Tracey71374]

Tomorrow will be two weeks since I've had a miscarriage. I was 8 weeks and 6 days pregnant. I was bleeding heavily so the doctor in the ER said that I would probably not have to have a d & c done. I had blood work done and they never called to have one done. When can I have sex again? When can I try to get pregnant again?

Also, if you were as emotionally crushed as I wad, I'd suggest waiting a couple months. This is really hard to deal with so soon after I lost mine.

When I miscarried at 7 weeks they told me I could try again but suggested I wait two normal cycles. I waited one and I'm pregnant again. As for sex they told me I could have sex as soon as I was completely done bleeding.

Thanks for responding about the miscarriage. This information is helpful. I hope that you have a healthy baby.

After my 2 d&c's my dr said no sex for a month-6 weeks I think it was and after a miscarriage that expelled on its own she said no sex for a month and no trying to conceive for at least 1 good cycle. It took a couple month for my periods to get back to normal. I would say to wait at least 2-3 cycles. I know it's hard not to try to get pregnant again so quickly but you need to let your body heal even if mentally and emotionally you are ready to try again. But in the end it all comers down to timing. It will happen when it's the right time. Not when we plan it to :) I'm the worst about listening to that but it's true :)

I'd say wait 6 weeks for your uterus to heal before having sex. I had a mc and got a d&c done. I waited until my 6 week checkup to have sex. My Dr also told me to wait 3 periods before trying to conceive. That way my uterine lining thickened and uterus healed. It took me almost a year after my mc to finally conceive. I'm 9 weeks and still scared of it happening again.

If you didn't have a D&C then most Dr's want you to wait a month. And that's only for dating reasons  I say if you feel physically and emotionally ready, go for it. As long as you were told otherwise by a Dr, or there was complications.

Everyone is different but my friend has a miscarriage and her dr said no trying for a year. Your body goes through a pregnancy and it's hard on it. But no two ppl are the same!
