Getting pregnant after D
I just had a D&C yest. I hear different dates as to how long to wait to try again. Anyone have any advice? I also heard you are more fertile immediately after a D&C. Is this true? Anyone who has been through this I appreciate the feedback.
I did d/c on d 19th of nov then had an unprotected sex on d 4th of dec but used pills immediately..av done several pregg tests all showing negative.. Pls wen shld I be expecting my period... Am really nervous
I know exactly how you feel. I just wish it would have been different, but things happen for a reason, however heartbreaking it may seem. I wish you the best of luck and I hope for the next pregnancy to be a healthy one :)
I'm going threw the same thing and feel the same way...
I really want to try again now cuz i feel like i want to replace what is missing. but i really am scared of having to hear bad news again and doing a d&c all over again.

Hello,
Im 24 years old and I found out I was pregnant 9/12/11. On the 30th, I was told I was 7 weeks along and that everything looked healthy. I started going to a doctor in near me because the drive to my other doctor took a good hour and twenty minutes. Little can I say that that was my first mistake. I am a vet tech and I did my best to stay far away from anything that could hurt the baby and I was so careful about what I ate and everything because I have always wanted to be a mom. I had my blood tests ran and checked for everything, but I never recieved a call from the doctors telling me what the results were so I called and their excuse was that they had just recieved the results.. 2 weeks later. So at my 9 week eval to see the baby everything looked great.. For the whole 3 minutes I was in there. The ultrasound tech didn't say a word once while she was measuring and doing her thing. She printed off the pictures and said, "Looks good". I then proceeded to get really emotional, because I had gone to my sisters and they spent more time looking and explaining everything to her (She went to my old dr.) So more tests were run and I never got the call back and when I called they told me that they didn't have them yet. It was two weeks later that I started noticing dark brown blood. I called and they said that it was normal and to drink more fluids. The following saturday I started cramping horribly and called the on-call dr and he said it was normal as well.. I knew something wasn't right though, so I went into the er and when they did the ultrasound the poor tech was trying so hard to find that little heart beat. But at last, it measured out to still only be 9 weeks and no heart beat. I have never been more crushed in my whole life. I have polycystic ovaries and was told when i went in the first time to these idiots that I probably wouldn't get pregnant.. So when I did it was a miracle in my mind. The doctors gave me Misoprostol and said it would take 12 hours to miscarry the "material". I was really offended because regardless of if my baby was dead, IT WAS STILL MY BABY!! So 5 hours go by and I am in so much pain. We called the doctors and left a message and still to this day haven't heard back from him. I got in a hot bath and that helped. I called my other doctor the next day to ask questions because I didn't see a whole lot of tissue come out after the baby so I was worried and the idiots down here said to wait two weeks. My amazing doctor told me to come in asap and I went in the next day to find that I needed a d&c because there was still a lot of tissue in me and he didn't want me to get an infection. So on 11/4/11 I had my surgery. My doctor (not his nurses) called me 2 days later to tell me the results from the biopsy's they sent off and to just see how i was doing.. Everything was normal. Along with finding that out, the other clinic called me to "tell me the results from my blood work and that my progesterone levels had dropped low and they recommend progesterone suppliments to help the baby.." I lost it.. Is there not a pop up on the computer or a sticker in the chart that would say, "Patient lost baby"???!!! Way to throw salt in my wounds JERKS!! It's been about four weeks since the d&c and I honestly feel pregnant again. I am having strange cravings, exhausted by 2pm everyday, moody, morning sick, urinating a LOT, smells get to me again, and more. I have read many stories on here about women getting pregnant after a d&c, but I am too scared to test and get a false positive. I am wondering if its my hormons trying to get back to normal, but I'm hoping for only good health. Has anyone ever gone through something like this and could it be possible for me to be pregnant already? I find comfort in knowing I'm not alone in this horrible time and I wish all of you mothers health and healthy babies!!

I found out I was pregnant on oct 14th and then went to the doctor when I had my first ultrasound they said that it looked like a 6week pregnancy but I should of been at 8 weeks. I went back 10to days later and they told me there was no baby and I would miscarry. 2 days laterr it started on a Sunday by friday they told me I needed a D&C. It has been a week tomorrow I had bad bleeding at first then spotting. Now I feel like im having my period and I am bleeding very heavy. Can it be my period after only a week? And if so I want to start trying to get pregnant right away. Does anyone have any advice?
hi! i had my 5th d&c last nov. 15, 2011. i was 8th weeks pregnant but the heartbeat stops at 6 weeks and 4 days. i was shocked! i couldn't believed that it will happened again. back in 1997 after i gave birth to my first son 9 days after i had D&c because i was bleeding. then, after 5 years i got pregnant again for 2 consecutive years. and have miscarriages and d&c with that pregnancies. then, on 2007 i got pregnant but it's a blighted ovum. so i had d&c again. now, 6 days after my d&c i still couldn't believed for what happened and why. I really want to have another child but i'm already 42. i don't know if i can still have. and besides i'm thinking if my uterus is still good to get pregnant after 5 d&c. and how long should i wait.
