Pregnant after a Loss
Options
How long did it take you?
Hi there-- I don't know if this is the right board for this question, but I thought I'd take a shot at it-- I was just wondering how long it took you ladies to get pregnant after a m/c? I started m/c a few days ago, when I was 8.5 wks preg, and I'm just trying to look forward and think about the future. How long did you wait to try again and how long did it take? TIA

Re: How long did it take you?
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I had an ectopic. We waited 2 cycles to try again & I got pregnant again that first cycle trying.
GL to you!
My m/c was in April...took 7 weeks for AF to show, then 2 non ovulating cycles and 1 cycle on clomid resulting in BFP. Good luck!
I had one AF and got pregnant right away. Good Luck!
I'm sorry for you loss <<HUGS>>
I had a natural m/c at the end of January, AF showed in March and we got preg in May after 2 cycles.
I had my m/c in April, at 10w4d. We waited 2 cycles, and got pg right away.
GL!
At my 8 week appointment (yes the first appointment) I found out that the baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks. I had no signs or symptoms and no bleeding. I ended up having a D&E on 03/24/08. My doc said after 1 full cycle I could try again. I didn't get my period until May. We got pregnant in June.
I am still nervous and skeptical. But I know every day makes it less of a chance and I owe it to this little one to be excited. So I am trying and less nervous as the days come! You have to do it when it is right for you.
Dont let anyone tell you different. I am very sorry for your loss.
This is what happened for me, too. I am also sorry for your loss!
This is a great place to post a question like that as you need reassurance that although things are disappointing now there will be light at the end of the tunnel!
I miscarried at 13 weeks right around Halloween. We got our BFP in February but it did take me 8 weeks to get a period after the miscarriage. I am so excited to know that this year Halloween will be such a different one!
I'm sorry for your loss.
I had two losses and got PG quickly after both. Unfortunately, one ended in another m/c but I am 29w along with the other!
I got pregnant before AF ever showed after my natural m/c. It took my body over 30 days to ovulate, so it would have been a long cycle after the m/c.
Good luck.
I'm really sorry.
My two losses were earlier on (6.5 weeks and 5.1 weeks), but I would say the first took about six weeks to get back on track and the second took five. So about the length of the pregnnacy, if I think about it.
In the cycles I was allowed to cycle (the clinic enforces one break cycle after a m/c), I got pregnant both times, which means I had three BFP cycles in a row. (December, March, May.) It was weird, like my body had finally gotten the baby bug or something.
I read that increased levels of progesterone during pregnancy can contribute to increased success after mc. I clung to the hope that my body really wanted to get and stay pregnant, but needed practice for some reason.
I wish you luck in your future cycles, and again, I'm sorry.
