Pregnant straight after M/C - Has anyone done this and had successful P/G?

[coolkat]

I had a M/C in early December and did not bleed for long. Different people advise you different things. Anyway me and DH have you know quite a bit since. I was wondering whether it is possible to get pregnant straight the way again and if so is this a bad thing.

I feel fine emotionally and Physically but am wary that I may have been silly not using protection. Obviously I do not know when / if I have ovulated so how long do I leave it to see if I am pregnant / my body is returning to normal.

I would be delighted if I was but did not know whether anyone had got pregnant straight after a miscarriage and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy.

Many Thanks for reading this.(Ths is the first time I have started a thread - wooo!)

I got pg after early m/c (@ 7wks) - got the BFP about one month after. Healthy baby now 21 months!

just wanted to post my positive experience

good luck to you all

I had one period after my last mc and then got pregnant. The mc damaged my cervix so I did have some early bleeding but I'm 19 weeks now and it's going well so far.

Thanks ladies, just wondered whether it was possible as me and DH not used protection since m/c and no AF yet. Will give it another few weeks and then test. M/C december 2nd.

Wish me luck!!

had a mc at 6 1/2 weeks in may, had one af then found out expecting again. im now 29 weeks . we did start trying straight after the mc but i did find it a bit confusing as to whether the bfps were due to a new pregnancy or not so im kind of glad i had an af (though i was gutted at the time) good luck to everyone whos ttc

I got pregnant stright after a miscarriage and was terrified but gp said statistically the pregnancy had the same risks/chance as any pregnancy - no different because I had just had a miscarriage

He is now 6 and a half and I always call him my miracle baby

I had a second miscarriage a few years later and since then have had a healthy baby girl.

So been pregnant 5 times and had 3 wonderful kids out of it - good odds I think!

I had a miscarriage in Aug 07, at 12wks. I wasn't ready to try again straight away, and it took a while for my cycle to go back to normal, so I have been happy to wait a few months. AF in Sep, Nov, Dec, so feel like my hormones have settled down a bit more now and I feel . I'm like you Expat, 37, so was thrilled when I fell pregnant last May, as the baby would have been due next month. I think I should be ovulating in the next week or so, so hope dh is feeling rested

Yes pregnant 4 weeks after MC twice. Resulted in gorgeous babies!Best of luck to you xx

So sorry cece and coolkat. I remember the feeling of just wanting to get on with it after my mc. I think that there is no issue with trying straight away after a "straightforward" 1st TM mc, but it is probably better to wait a cycle or 2 after a 2nd TM mc.

I mc at 10 weeks (complete, no intervention), waited one period (4 weeks) and got pregnant straight away. I'm now 34 weeks pregnant.

Good luck to all of you who have had mc's and are trying.
