Anyone conceive quickly after coming off pill then miscarry?

[Kate8989]

Thread title says it all really....

I miscarried under a week ago, never in a million years did I expect us to fall so quickly. Now I’ve lost baby I just don’t know how to feel.

A big part of me is optimistic that we fell so quick; but other part naturally devestated I’ve lost our baby and not sure how to move forward....

Kate - yes I did. Conceived within 2 months of coming off the pill, but then had a missed miscarriage (blighted ovum) and at 12 week scan there was no heartbeat. I had to have an ERPC.

I then had lots of problems - lengthy cycles, polycystic ovaries, cyst that burst. It took about 18 months to conceive again. But that time all was fine and we now have 3 DC.

I am so sorry for your loss. But hope next time round you have more joy.

I did too. Came off pill, immediately fell pregnant and had a mmc. Waited 2 cycles and then immediately fell pregnant again and had dd1.

Sorry for your loss

Thank you for replying to me.

How did you cope with the subsequent pregnancies? X

I continued to fall pregnant quickly. After my mmc I had dd1. Went back on the pill, had 2 mmc's and then dd2. Went on Mirena, had that out and then took about 4 months to conceive ds.

Yes - first time I came off the pill, got pregnant after 2 months and it was missed mc and I had to have a d&c, and they found nothing, so it was all a bit like a rollercoaster, hormone and emotion wise.

2nd time I came off the pill to get pregnant, wanted to wait and DH didn't so ended up pregnant after first period. This time it was twins. There is just no knowing

Thanks for all replying. How did you relax in the pregnancies? I mean I didn’t even l know I was pregnant so it’s been such a rollercoaster of emotions! X

Now I’ve lost baby I just don’t know how to feel It is always a shock and your hormones go from one extreme to another. There is no right or wrong way to feel. You need to be kind to yourself and kind to other people and it will come right. I think that it is by going though these things that we understand other people. I met others who had been through many multiple miscarriages etc and it gave me a lot of respect for them.

I remember after my mmc, I wondered why I was putting myself through this and why I ever wanted any DC anyway, but I read my pregnancy book (Sheila Kitzinger - very gentle tone) and there was a black and white drawing of a newborn in a hospital blanket, and I thought 'oh yeah' and it gradually got better. I was on tenterhooks with DS1, especially as I had episodes of bleeding where I thought it was all over, but I did gradually relax.

Thank you for the lovely words. You are right, I have been shocked at the amount of people I’ve told who have been through the same. I’m making sure I do talk about what happened and not sweep it under the carpet.
When we do conceive again and find out I’m pregnant (as didn’t know with this one). I wanr that elated, excited let’s plan feeling. I don’t want to be scared every time I go to the toilet!!!! X
