Conceiving after MMC - how long?

[GenerallyLost]

Hi all, had a MMC at 10 weeks just over 3 weeks ago. Was my second baby, and am very much wanting to give my daughter a sibling ASAP.

I'm still testing positive on HPTs (faintly), and did a clearblue digital today which says 1-2 weeks. I'm so disappointed, as I was nearly sure I ovulated last week (over 2 weeks post mc); ewcm, typically one-sided cramping I get when I ovulate, and my sex drive was so high. We did the deed quite a few times, and I was feeling hopeful that our chances of conceiving again were good. Now I'm not so sure.

Has anyone been in a similar boat? Any positive stories? Dreading AF returning, just want to be pregnant again

Didn’t want to just read and run, just wanted to say hi, I too had a MMC 3 weeks ago and wouldn’t wish it upon anyone: no advice to give but I hope you’re ok! X

@georginae89 I'm so sorry to hear you've been through it, too. The worst part is that I thought we were safe, I'd had 2 scans and all was perfect, and then at 10w, just gone. I'm still not the better of it all. I hope you're looking after yourself, its really tough

Sorry to hear about your loss. I had a miscarriage at 5 weeks and got a negative test just days after. I then got pregnant immediately after with no period in between and had a mmc. Should have been 9 weeks but measuring at 6. Took 10 weeks for the hcg to come out of my system! I just bought cheap pregnancy test strips and had my beta monitored every week. It's so mentally exhausting isn't it

@chasingtherainbow1 I am so sorry of both your losses. 10 weeks is such a long time! It's so exhausting, and I'm not coping with it very well this week. Just want my body to move on and to be pregnant again. Its been really hard. Hope you're minding yourself x

Hi ladies, sorry you all find yourself in this situation. It is s*....there are no other words really.
I had a mmc last year, baby was 9wks. I opted for surgical management. I had a negative pregnancy test 3 weeks later.
I then had a chemical pregnancy 2 months later but the following month I fell pregnant again and gave birth to my beautiful boy exactly a year to the day that our lost one died.
It is hard, allow yourself to grieve, but know that there is nothing you did or didn't do to cause it and that nature has this way of righting wrongs (as awful and traumatic as that can be).
I wish you love and happiness. Xx
