Does anyone have a success story conceiving after a very early 4/5 week miscarriage? I was 5 weeks on Friday and started to bleed Saturday. I think everything is out. My hcg levels was 231 Tues then 29 Friday. So I assume by now it's almost out of my system. I really wanted to try this next ovulation. Anyone every had luck with this? I really want to try again asap. I'm super impatient.....

ETA: I’ve been there and had to wait. It is really hard and I don’t know your back story. There is a TTC after Loss board and thread here, but beware that the journey has been long for some and has resulted in repeated loss. We use a TW or trigger warning for mention of loss around here. Good luck.

We are ALL here anxiously and impatiently waiting for babies, whether we've had miscarriages or no miscarriages in the past.
We are here to support each other no matter what our story is. Please read the pinned posts because they would have told you don't create your own thread and to introduce yourself in the newbie intro thread and get to know everyone. We don't appreciate people who come in here unknown desperate for answers when we don't know them or their back story. It does no one good.
And as someone who has had multiple losses, shouldn't you know the recommendation on when to start trying again? Give yourself some time to grieve your loss and when you feel ready, start trying again.

As for impatience. Nothing you can do about that. You really gotta figure out how to live your life and not worry about the timing of these things. Trust me, I've got 5 MC and we were on the TTC track for over 4 years. Now I've got an IUD in and looking at IVF or adoption if the monies ever came together in YEARS from now. It's all out of your hands and the sooner you accept that, the better off mentally you will be, especially when you realize that not everyone 'win's' the TTC lotto... some of us walk away empty-handed.
Please intro yourself and join in the TTCAL threads to support and gain support from the wonderful ladies there.
Not sure exactly what quantifies a "success" to you. My 1st pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks. I was told by my dr to wait 2 cycles to let my body recover. I, too, was impatient and instead got pregnant the next cycle. I dont know any of that correlates with what happened next but I cant rule it out. My 2nd pregnancy was ectopic and it took almost 7 weeks from when I found out I was pregnant to in the middle of those weeks getting cancer shots in my butt to stop the growth and then still end up with my insides blowing up and losing a tube, leading me to fertility treatments for my family planning needs. After the ectopic i was medically benched for 3 more months bc the cancer drugs would have deformed any pregnancy. So, I almost died, I lost a baby, I lost a tube, and I lost 6 months because I was impatient. Not saying an ectopic wouldn't have happened any other time but still....bodies aren't machines, they need some time. Work on that impatience, it will be worth it someday.
