I miscarried on 20 August, had the D&C on 21st August, period came on 26 September and even tho it's only been 1 cycle, we decided to start trying again. Is this ok? Has anyone else not waited 2 cycles and started trying quite soon after miscarriage? We are just keen to start trying

Hiya, as long as you have not been advised for medical reasons to wait and you feel physically/mentally ready then go for it! Best of luck to you :) xx

Thanks ! No medical reasons no. I had a miscarriage before and waited 2 cycles but this time now I'm older I just want to get cracking

Hi!
I had a miscarriage in March, period finally came in April and got pregnant after that.
Then that one ended is miscarriage too. I didn't get a period again after that one before I got pregnant again - that time we wasn't trying, we were careless on a special occasion one time and it just happened, currently 20 weeks pregnant with a little boy.
Apparently you're most fertile after a miscarriage so can happen easily for some people and I believe a lot of people can scare you, try to control you by saying you should wait 6 months, but really, it's your choice - my hospital just said wait until you have a period to ensure everything is ready again, but that didn't help me the first time after miscarriage and I apparently didn't need it after the second.

Hope you get a positive outcome soon enough!

I had one period between my miscarriage and conceiving again. It took 9 months of trying for my first pregnancy, so I do believe that fertility potentially improves after a miscarriage. The EPU Dr told me I only needed to wait for one period, and that was mostly for dating purposes and as long as I was emotionally and physically recovered it was fine to try again.
