How soon after a misscarriage can you get pregnant?

went to the doctor on Wednesday October 4th, 2006 and had a sonogram done, the lady told me I was at 6 weeks 2 days. I told her that was wrong and I asked her when I got pregnant she told me around Sept. 3rd. I told her that was wrong because i knew 2 weeks before that, that i was pregnant, because I had taken a test at my regular doctors office that came back pregant. The nurse left the room and came back and told my husband and I that the doctor will take my blood today and that i need to come back that friday. So needless to say I left the doctors office knowing that something was wrong. On Thursday afternoon the a nurse from the doctors office called to tell me over the phone that i was having a miscarriage. Schedule told me to come in Friday morning. I went in a spoke with my Doctor and he told me that I had miscarried sometime in September, but he couldn't understand why i had no signs of a miscarraige, so we scheduled a D&C for that afternoon. He told me to wait at least 1 month before having sex, we waited 4 days. How soon can i get pregnant again? Keep in mind that my Husband is 22, I am 21, we have been married for 3 years and this is our second miscarriage. We hand aonther one in January of 04 at 6 weeks as well. We are so devasted. We thought for sure that things were going to be right this time. Has anyone else gone through this and do you have any advice. I go back to the doctor this Friday.

And to answer your other question- no, you can't be pregnant if you still have hcg left from your last pregnancy.

im sorry for your losses. im a military wife as well so i understand your wanting to concieve before he leaves. the first thing you need to think about though is your health. will he be gone for  a year? one thing to consider is you are both young. yes going to iraq is a scary thing. being pg is scary too when dh is far away. im not telling you to wait or do it now, but spend the next few months loving each other and having some time for yourselves. the added stress of concieving right now may not be the best for you. best of luck to you and to him! may he return safe.

I think you should wait atleast 1 cycle.When a d&c is done their is no lining in cervix.Weather your at 0 or not does not make a diff.If you get preg. to soon & there's no lining ther cant be adicuate implantation resulting in m/c.I m/c in 8/25 & will be waiting till dec-jan...nanis
