Miscarriage and D & C

[lynzw]

Hi
I had a miscarriage at 9 weeks and had a D&C. This is my first miscarriage I have a 2 year old daughter already. I would like to try to conceive again as soon as my body is fit. I am just wondering if anyone has been though this and any advice? Also I would love to wind down chat to a friend and have some wine. I want to have it and relax and get it out the way then go back to no drinking to prepare my body in it's best state before I try again. Is this ok or is it best to avoid? Any opinions are welcome and any stories anyone would like to share about their experience
Thanks

Been there, done that and it is horrible. I’m so sorry.

Absolutely, have a glass of wine and a good long chat with a friend. That will not have any impact on conceiving again. (Although, it may relax and distress you and therefore be a good thing).

I was advised to wait until after my first period to try again to ensure that dates are reasonably accurate.

Me too - at 9 weeks as well. So sorry, it is just so awful

Definitely go for it and have a couple of glasses of wine and chat with your friend. I'd say definitely try to give yourself a break for a little while.

My consultant did tell me if you do happen to get pregnant again immediately it doesn't have any impact on the likelihood of the pregnancy being viable, it's just a dates thing, so it's up to you really.

Thank you both for your response. I had a drink and spoke to my friend for a good 2 hours. I'm feeling a lot better today and getting my head around it. Feeling positive and will always remember this but when I feel ok I do want to try and conceive again and stay hopeful for a healthy pregnancy. Thanks for your support
