Anyone who was TTC before a miscarriage?

if you were trying to concieve for a long time before your miscarriage, are you or were you finding it hard to conviece the second time after your loss?
i was TTC for over 4 long years and sadly it ended in a loss at 8 weeks pregnant. I'm still recovering but hoping for my rainbow baby. I'm worried i'll be struggling to concieve again, would love to hear other people's experiences.

I'm so sorry to hear of your TTC journey and your miscarriage, it's such a cruel and heartbreaking thing to happen. We had unexplained secondary infertility, tried for a couple of years and got pregnant after IVF. Discovered a MMC at the 12 week scan. That happened at the end of January last year, I gave myself a couple of months to recover and got pregnant naturally the first month of trying. I'm currently awake with my ten week old.

I think the fact I had been pregnant helped with being more fertile to get pregnant again quickly, although that's not proven, just my thoughts.

Look after yourself, book a holiday or a nice trip to try and focus on something else for a little while as you recover, that's what we did. Hope your rainbow baby joins you before too long.

I also had an MMC found at my 12 week scan. Once my cycle got back to normal it took me five months to conceive again and that was a chemical. After that I caught in tge fourth month but that was a chemical too. Now likely about to start 7th cycle after that. I think the time between is a bit random to be honest. Depends on luck and timing, etc.
