TTC after first AF?

in Pregnant after a Loss

Is it crazy for wanting to TTC after my first AF since m/c?  DH and really want to go for it again, but I just don't know if I can go through this all again.  Did the majority of you on this board wait two or more AF's after your loss to try again?  TIA.

    I waited for one full AF cycle after my D&C.  But my initial m/c was two months before D&C.  Do what you feel is right for you.  I don't know that one month post m/c I would have been ready -- by three I definately was.  good luck to you!

    First off, I am so sorry for your loss.  My Dr told us to wait 1 cycle, which is what we did.  We started trying after my first post m/c AF.  It took us 4 cycles of TTC before I got a BFP.  Which turned out to be 6 months after my m/c.

    GL!

    m/c April '08

    DD#2 born April '11
    TTC #3 as of July '14

    you're not crazy.  Each person has to do what's right for them.  We only waited 1 cycle & tried again.  It still took us a couple of months to be successful anyway, but we were ready to try again.  Hope this helps!

    For my first m/c (a blighted ovum), I just waited 1 cycle and got PG right away. Unfortunately, I had another m/c. After the second m/c, I waited 2 cycles but that was mostly because I was still waiting for my hcg to go below 5 (it took forever) and got PG right away. I always wonder if I should have waited longer after that first m/c.

    I have heard that if you had D&C, it's better to wait 2 cycles to let your lining really grow back again. I have no idea if that's true or not. I had a natural m/c for the first and took misoprostyl for the second.

    My m/c was pretty early at 5.5 weeks, and I passed it naturally. Also my hcg level was down to 16 before I had the m/c, so my Dr told us to go ahead and try and we got pregnant first go without an AF cycle at all.
