Trying for a baby after having d&c

Hey... I just wondered if I could get some experiences from like minded people who have had to have a d&c and when you started ttc afterwards? I had mixed advice from hospital after my recent d&c (unfortunately my second) baby was 7+6. Did you wait 3 months or 1 as I was told both time lines ? Have you had success? I'm 31 and I lost my first baby at 6 weeks in September 2019. I'm obviously very keen to try again but scared about trying too soon.... Any opinions or experiences would be great to hear. Xx

Thanks farfaraway its been a very long month for me as I had a mega bleed at the beginning then it calmed then came back then had to go gp then to hospital for scan and then had confirmation of what I suspected. I am finding it hard as my partner works away... And one of his friends who hasn't been with his partner very long just announced they are pregnant so I'm feeling green... We didn't announce we were waiting for 3 months. I hope you have success soon and thanks again for getting back to me. Keep me posted on how you're doing x

Hi lovely, so sorry to hear about your losses 😔 I had a D&C about 8 months ago and unfortunately still trying for baby #3. We waited about a month before ttc after the surgery. I felt ready, had stopped bleeding etc and just wanted to be close to my partner again by that point.. 💖 x
