Are You More Fertile After Miscarriage? True or False

[BearHitch]

Hey ladies... I recently had a miscarriage and DH and I are looking to try again.  I've heard that you are more fertile after a miscarriage- does anyone know if this is true or just rumor for someone who would really like that to be true (me)?!  The bleeding has pretty much stopped, though it picks up a bit after sex but then stops again, so I think my body is done getting rid of everything...  Has anyone else had a m/c and conceived shortly after?  I'd love some stories that would envoke hope :)  Thanks!

I hope this helps. I found out (home test first) that I was pregnant what I assumed I was about 4 weeks along. Then a week later I started getting a dull pain in the lower part of my belly and began spotting. Went to doctors and they confirmed I was pregnant but could not find my pregnancy through an ultra sound. I was hospitalized for 3 days because my levels kept on rising but no sign of baby and i was in pain. They had to do a laproscopic procedure on me and found my pregnancy to be in my right tube. Doctor said it could have caused a lot of damage if I would have waited any longer...hope everything work out well..listen to your body because only you can feel when something is truly wrong. Take care

LADIES! BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL LADIES.....Im 39, I truly thought I would never have children after being told myself and my partner collectively only had a 5% chance of conceiving...(long story)....I found out 3 weeks before my IVF programme was about to begin that I was pregnant....and now have a delicious little Girl...we felt SO blessed to have her that I felt guilty to even WANT another child...but deep down prayed I would....I found out on 16th January 2012 I was pregnant....and miscarried on the 1st February at around 7 weeks. I was unprepared for the physical pain or the grimness of it all....and yet still feel lucky that it happened so early when I hear devastating stories of much later losses (including my own dear Friends, who lost their first child at 6 months pregnant the week before me....Ironically they had already decided to call their little Girl Hope)...Life is often cruel, but also full of blessings...even the fact that we all have partners who we love enough to actually WANT a child with is a blessing...some people never even find that special someone. I truly believe that we are NEVER given dreams without also having the ability to make them happen, so I am trying to relax, enjoy reconnecting with my wonderful man who is also beyond devastated....and trust that miracles happen. My lost baby was perhaps meant to be my guardian Angel (my M/C happened on the same day my Partner had heart surgery) so either way the this child will always be with me...Im not naive nor in denial. This has been devastating, but time is a healer and I only hope that you Ladies will just allow your body to fully get over the internal trauma of what has happened....Dont get me wrong, Im DESPERATE to try again, but equally I know that pressure and stress will not help me emotionally so Im going to try and chill out about it....and just believe it WILL HAPPEN...Much love to you all from a Mother of 1 beautiful Daughter, 1 sadly terminated Child (which I lost as a very young woman)...and 2 miscarried babies....Each and every one of them Angels...x

These comments have been very helpful I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks i am 25 and very healthy when we found out we were very devestated and  cried for hours But after hearing how some people got pregnant right away it has made me very hopeful that it will happen again it has made
Me feel so much better because I thought we were going to have to wait a while next time I post I will let you know the next time I am pregnant

I just found out yesterday that me and my husband had miscarried our first baby at 9 weeks or so. I was supposed to be 10 1/2. I had no bleeding or cramping at all, nothing that even made me wonder if something was wrond. We went to the doctors at 9 weeks and they tried to get a heartbeat but they said it was probably too soon to hear it on the doppler. They told us to come back in one week, Still i was not worried. Then my morning sickness went away at the click of a finger and the next week they still found no heartbeat. I was taken to u/s and they still found no heartbeat. I had the D&C done today and i have mild cramping and some bleeding. Although this is an extreemly rough time, i know that God will take care of us. I have heard that you are more fertile after a D&C because your cleaned out and everything is super "sticky" i guess would be a way to describe it. Like it's easier for the fertilized egg to implant. They told us to wait a week before having sex and a cycle before trying. I'm giving this over to God now, i figure he will have whatever is supposed to happen happen. There are plenty of people that go through a miscarriage, even multiple miscarriages and still have healthy babies. Where there's a will there's a way. God bless all of you, everything is going to be okay.
