How long to wait after miscarriage?

Hi all,

Wondering if I could get some opinions/advice on how soon to begin TTC again after early miscarrage....

I had a chemical pregnancy in February of this year, and an early miscarriage almost 2 weeks ago at 6+3. The bleeding has now stopped and pregnancy test is negative, I think I will probably ovulate this weekend. Is it too soon to try again then, are there risks to getting pregnant again that soon?

When I went to the EPU for my scan after miscarriage she said to ring them immediately when I get my next positive pregnancy test and they will offer me early scans and to see a consultant who may put me on progesterone and aspirin. I feel a bit reasurred that extra support will be offered, I am also waiting to hear back from the GP with results of bloods that were taken during my pregnancy.

I've read online but research seems to be mixed on how long to wait and if its safe to try again immediately.

Grateful for any advice!

Ignore me I've just re read and you've said 6+3 so similar to me 😊

There are so many mixed messages aren't there? After my mmc in January er waited until I'd had a period again, to be fair I wasn't ready before then anyway.

Just a few weeks ago I had a chemical. As that was so early I used that as my cycle and tested as normal, ovulated so am in the TWW again.

I did see a GP last week who advised me to wait 3 cycles if I'm not pregnant again to allow my body to heal but I'll be 37 next month and feel like it's such a long time to wait. It'll be a year in September since we started trying for our 2nd so feel like we've not gotten anywhere in that time if I wait.

Thank you to those who have shared their success stories, it does fill me with hope, and many others I'm sure.
