2 mmcs in a row, how soon should I try again?

[HopefullyOnedayzz]

Hi I'm currently recovering from a second miscarriage that was a blighted ovum and had medical management.
My first mc was in November which was a missed mc resulting in a d&c.
I was just wondering how long is best to wait to try again because it's the only hope I have that's keeping me going?
I was hoping for some support from others that have been in this situation, and also give some support and help any1 that has to go through this horrendous journey

Hopefully I'm so sorry to read your post. It's just the shittiest of things to go through.
I had two miscarriages within 4 months last year, and it physically and emotionally knocked me sideways. So make sure you feel strong enough to cope with seeing that BFP, as you'll know that pregnancy after miscarriage is a stressful ride.from a medical perspective it is easier to date the pregnancy if you wait for a normal period after a miscarriage. It's entirely possible to fall pregnant in the cycle between a MC and before your first post MC period, but can make dating harder and this could cause anxiety when measuring growth in scans etc.
I'm sure you've heard that the 6 months after a MC yiu could have higher fertility as your body has already been kickstarted into being baby carrying ready. So you have a few months to play with.
I suppose my best advice is to do what feels right for you.
My last miscarriage was in November and I have just found out I am pregnant again. This is my fourth pregnancy, and I'm not yet a mother. It's terrifying! But the fear of miscarrying again is out weighted by the possibility of holding my newborn baby in 8 months. That will keep me battling through.
You have a great attitude and I'm glad that you are determined to keep trying.
I have a little phrase that keeps me going in these tough times which is:
'Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, it's not yet the end.'

hopefully I agree with size three. I had my second m/c confirmed as complete on wed. It does depend on where you are emotionally and if you'd rather be clear about dates etc but there's no reason not to get on with it. We are going to go unprotected until my first period post m/c then start tracking again. But I feel good enough to do that, after my first I couldn't contemplate anything for a good few months. Do what feels right for you and your partner. The staff at the hospital were very clear to give us the message to get on as soon as we felt ready and not to delay. They also reminded us to get back on folic acid etc which I'd already done anyway. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply sizethree and maverick that quote brought a tear to my eye, and also sorry for your losses. Sizethree it's really nice to hear a story with a positive outcome. Emotionally I think I'm ready I just hope my body is ready for it, I'm booked in the doctors next week to see if the doctors can help with any tests but I've heard that slot of people have to wait until 3 mcg before any action is taken, hopefully it was just a bit if bad luck that i had and I have to go through it again.
Maverick good look and I have my fingers crossed for you, iv decided that I'm going to start tracking again after my next period aswel, I don't think I can wait any longer, my first mc would have been due in June so it would be lovely to be pregnant when that day comes around to make it easier x

Thanks for your kind words.
I'm glad you're being so positive and proactive.
My mentality is that as horrific as miscarriages are, it's always worth taking the chance to try again, as the benefits of holding my own baby will always outweigh the pain of losses.
I stamped my feet a bit and my doctor agreed to do the blood tests for repeated miscarrages after my second one. All results showed no problems. Which was a relief.
I was told that the reasoning for not testing before the third loss is that sadly it's not that uncommon to have two losses (that by no means is meant to come across as trivialising it though. It's just statistically not that uncommon so medically they are keen to not investigate when the likelihood is that it's just been awful luck and your chances if having a healthy baby next time are far higher than suffering a further loss.)
Definitely go to your doctor as having that extra support is always a good thing and you should also be offered an early reassurance scan.
Wishing you the best of luck and the most sucessful, smooth and uneventful next pregnancy.

So sorry for your losses hopefully I had 4 consecutive miscarriages and the first 2 were mmc, we were told to wait one cycle before trying again so always waited until I'd had a proper period and I was lucky in that I fell pregnant easily, normally within a couple of months. I was like you the only thinking that kept me going was the thought of getting pregnant again but in hindsight maybe I should have given myself longer to recover emotionally, I had all 4 mc in 11 months. We did get our rainbow baby eventually and she's now 8 months old, I don't think I dealt with the grief and emotion of my mc's until after she'd been born it was almost like I'd been holding my breath I think I was probably borderline for postnatal depression, my health visitor did warn me that those feelings might reappear after the birth so make sure you give yourself time to recover properly
We weren't allowed any tests until I'd had 3 in a row but we did pay privately for a consultation as I had a lot of questions I needed answering, we were lucky that the consultant then transferred us back to her nhs clinic and we were well looked after. I had all of the tests done and no reason was found which I know is a good thing but I found it difficult at the time as I wanted to know why it was happening. With my successful pregnancy I was offered lots of scans from very early on and it helped massively so I would see if they can offer you some reassurance scans, I was also prescribed progesterone pessaries on the off chance they would help, I will never know if they made a difference but I was willing to try anything. I wish you the best of luck and hope you get you rainbow baby very soon, the miscarriage boards were a life saver for me it's good to talk to people who know what you're going through x

hopefully hope you are doing ok, I've done the same as sizethree and stamped my feet, my epu agreed to a consultant referral but no guarantees they will do anything other than have a chat. Ive also pushed for an mot with gp, not sure as still need to research my demands (!) but will include thyroid etc. I also plan to push for what they will do when I next get pregnant eg progesterone - my thoughts are if it cant hurt it can only help. The epu will give me regular early scans too. Come over to the recurrent miscarriage thread, the ladies are supportive and between them have a ton of helpful knowledge x

Well I went to the doctors today and after lots of tears and tantrums I'm being referred to the fertility clinic. I did have a referral last year because we had been trying for 18months but the I got pregnant with my first mc, so it got cancelled. In total now it's around 2yrs of trying with 2miscarriages so my doctors said its best for me to get seen. She also said there's no reason why I shouldn't try again so after next period Im goin to start tracking.
Butterfly thanks for the reply and congratulations on your rainbow baby, my first mc didn't hit me until a few months later when I got really down about it, I feel that I have coped a lot better with this second mc as I'm still grieving from the first, I just hope I continue with this positivity. Going to the doctors has helped me as I feel like I have got the ball rolling and some reassuring words from the doctor made me feel better.
I can't thank you all enough for taking the time to reply to me, it's much easier talking to people that have been through this and know exactly how ur feeling xxx
