Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Did your doc tell you to wait a cycle after your M/C? (note: DS pic inside)

Hi ladies:

I had a M/C last week (at 7 weeks). Everything passed naturally but I'm still bleeding. Once this stops, I assume my next cycle will go back to normal.... or do you think it'll take another month before we should try again? My doc gave us her blessing to start trying when I felt ready so hopefully my body will cooperate and get back on track. Did you all wait a full cycle before trying again or no?

I am SO sory for all of your losses. My story is in my blog (see siggy).

  • My doctor's nurse told me to wait a cycle or two.  We will end up waiting 3 or 4 because we want to avoid having a baby in the fall.  I am in the middle of my first cycle post m/c and I feel like emotionally and physically I'd be ready to try again.  Good luck with whatever you decide.

  • We were told to wait one cycle.  Like you I was almost 7 weeks and the bleeding is finally stopping (started last Friday).

  • I had a D&C but my doctor said once I got my period we were okay to start trying again. We likely will start trying right away, unless I change my mind between now and then.

    Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
  • After my m/c and D&C in June we were cleared to try again after I got my period.  We wound up waiting an extra cycle after that because I just didn't feel back to normal.  We got pg right away (after the 2nd AF) but m/c again.  I'm not sure what our marching orders will be now.  So sorry for your loss.

  • I had a very early loss at 4 weeks and I was told I could start trying immediately or wait a cycle.  I had my af almost immediately after the c/p (my hcg levels were <1 really soon after the c/p).

  • My OB told me to wait one cycle before TTC again.  She said we needed to wait until I was ready emotionally, but that one cycle would be good for physical healing.  She said it's just too hard to be pregnant again if the previous hormones aren't out of your system yet.  We did wait & just found out we're pregnant again!

  • I had my D&C on 11/8 and was told to wait one or two cycles. I'm not sure what I want to do yet. DH wants to try as soon as we can but I'm not sure yet.

  • My doctor said as soon as my body O's its ready to be pregnant again, so we started trying right away. 

    I stopped bleeding on 10/30 and o'd on 11/7.  I am 8dpo today and hoping hoping HOPING that it happens on our first cycle!

  • My doc prefers me to wait until after a normal cycle, so presumably a couple months.  It's been 4 weeks since I delivered and no sign of AF yet, although I have been spotting this whole time, arg!  We are tentatively planning on starting ttc in January.

  • So sorry to hear of your loss.

    I literally just got back from my first appt.  They said pelvic rest for two weeks once the bleeding stops (should stop before 2 wks are up).  Beyond that they said if we're TTC that they said they generally recommend waiting 1-3 cycles...said 3 is the general rec, 1 the minimum.
