TTC after miscarriage - bleeding after sex

After learning about my MMC I had an ERPC last week and started TTC 7 days later when bleeding stopped. I know that some people told us to wait 2 weeks but others said we could start when we felt ready and the bleeding had stopped. I’ve felt so so so low and desperately wanted to feel close to my DH and also wanted to be one of those miracle women who conceives again before first AF due. I’m almost on a mission to be pregnant again - like nothing makes sense unless I am. Anyway, we’ve DTD a few times over the last few days and the day after there’s sometimes a bit of blood when I go to the loo - not loads and sometimes 24 hours later. Is this just a bruised cervix? When I had my ERPC the doc said that they perform the surgery using ultrasound so they’re confident that they get everything so it can’t be any remaining tissue, can it? So confused. Wish to be back to normal/pregnant/sane/happy. Appreciate any similar stories.

Didn’t want to read and run. I was advised from the hospital to wait 2 weeks or until the bleeding has stopped as dtd before the bleeding stops means you’re at more risk of infection. I don’t have any experience as I didn’t need medical intervention but the bleeding could be just be cervix irritation as it was so recent. If you’re comfortable and not experiencing pain you should be fine. If you have any concerns you could speak to a GP to confirm. Good luck TTC xxx

Just thought I would jump into this thread as I'm starting to feel the same as you @SARmum14, about desperately wanting to be pregnant again. For me it's only been 1 week today since I naturally expelled what feels like my entire uterus after being told no heart beat at 8 week scan. Still so fresh. The bleeding has finally started to slow right down, but too soon to start trying again due to some bright fresh blood every time I go to the toilet... but I just keep finding myself looking at my calander and doing the math so I can try get a head start or something? Frequently searching for information online about conceiving after miscarriage etc. Its consuming me.

This is my second miscarriage, we have no children. Yet 🤞

I hope you've since recovered and your issue has resolved itself, otherwise I would personally go to the doctor just to check all is well. Good luck x
