If you had a miscarriage, how long did it take to get a BFP again

I had a MMC in September last year. It took us 10 cycles for me to get pregnant, and of course it was a devastating loss. AF has just arrived, so this was a BFN on our third try since the MMC.

I need to lose more weight, I lost almost 3 stone before I got my first BFP so I'm carrying on with a lower-calorie diet and 30 minutes of fairly intense cardio 4 days a week plus about 45 minutes of fairly swift walking every day - but I am desperately trying to reassure myself that it won't necessarily take another 7 months or even longer to get another BFP.

I know no-one can tell me what's going to happen, but on average if you had a miscarriage with your first pregnancy, did it take you longer to get pregnant the second time? I'm not getting any younger and I'm worried I'm going to run out of time.

No, I had an ectopic pregnancy, lost a tube. Got pregnant again on my second cycle of trying (I presume the first cycle ovulating on my remaining tube side).

I had a MMC at 9 weeks, had medical management, caught again before my next period, now 33 weeks. I was very lucky
