No medical benefit to waiting between MC and TTC

in TTC After a Loss
My last period ended 4/19, had my Paraguard IUD removed 4/28, and positive HPT 6/2, which ended in MC 6/9. My OB said there is no medical benefit to waiting to start trying again; as soon as we are emotionally ready, we can try. 
I have read a few studies about MC rates being higher in people who get pregnant as soon as they have their IUD removed, because even with the non-hormonal IUD,  your uterine lining still isn't able to build up enough to support a healthy pregnancy.  
I want to start trying again as soon as possible, but I'm worried about trying before I have a regular cycle or two, to allow my body to get up to "baby-ready" standards. 
Anyone lose a pregnancy early on (especially after IUD removal) have luck getting pregnant soon after? Or is it best to have a period or two before actively trying again?

    Welcome and I'm sorry for your loss.

    Unfortunately you aren't likely to have a ton of success on this board finding people who conceived successful pregnancies a month after loss. You probably want to ask your question on the Pregnant After Loss board.

    That being said, I think it's extremely important to listen to your body. I got pregnant 2 cycles after MC when my body was all out of whack. I wish I'd listen to my body and taken another month to wait for things to settle down because I got pregnant with a baby with a chromosomal abnormality due to a bad egg.

    First I wanna say I'm sorry for your loss. I got pregnant with my first child in January 2015 I miscarried in February and on March I was already pregnant again, I never waited a cycle, that pregnancy I didn't carry to term but because I went into premature labor hours shy of 22 weeks, not because my uterus wasn't baby ready, everything was fine, the baby, the placenta, everything. Just one of those things that happen. 

    That being said, I would always take the doctors advice, my doctor also told me there was no medical reason not to get pregnant right away other than having a LMP date. The emotional aspect is the most important thing.

    I waited the 2 months but I feel like a ton of people get pregnant immediately after which I'm sure is great for them emotionally to not be stressing getting pregnant again. On the down side, you could miscarry again if you had something retained or whatever. I mean, I'd think
    that would matter. Anyways, I waited like 4 months and regret it now but I wanted to go on vacation/ get my mind of it and enjoy life so I waited.
