Trying to conceive again six weeks after miscarriage, is it too soon?

[MamaB12]

I would have been 12 weeks tomorrow and it’s hit me like a f**king train. 😩
is it selfish of me to be TTC so soon🤦🏽‍♀️, i am currently 1 day past ovulation and 6 weeks post miscarriage😩 im praying to fall pregnant again this year.. has anyone got any positive stories about successful pregnancies after miscarriage 🤞🏻

just had my period on the 6th may

I conceived twins after a miscarrige, good luck!

We did wait a couple of months, we felt we needed the time emotionally; then got pregnant within 4 months, and was successful. If you feel ready, go for it!

Go for it, I know lots of women who have done just that, and your uterus is ripe and healthy now

No need to wait if you want to try. On the miscarriage charity website it says some studies show you are more likely to get pregnant within 6 months after a miscarriage. I don't know what the actual stats are though.

I never understood people suggesting I wait. For me, healing was TTC as soon as I could.

I'm sorry for your loss

I've had 3 and will never have my own children. I did a huge amount of reading including medical papers. Are you still bleeding from the loss? Have you had a period since your loss? If you have completely stopped bleeding from the loss and had a separate period, then yes TTC if you both feel ready. You might need a little lube because things can be drier than usual.

IF you haven't had a period, then I'd wait until you have. I've read so many times of those conceiving straight away who sadly then MC again because the uterus hasn't actually fully cleared and isn't ready. There will be successful cases obviously, but having also been on MN many years, it does seem to follow a pattern. Wishing you all the best. x

Not at all selfish. We don't have infinite time. If I could pause my biological clock I would take a break honestly. But on my 39th Birthday I miscarried. And had it been 12 months ago I would have waited a few months. But 39 and near the 40 drop off in fertility. So we are TTC for 6 months and if no luck cart ourselves off to the Drs.

I miscarried in March and had bleeding on and off for 5 weeks. Had a proper cycle in May and we TTC and my BBT chart looks great ovulation was super late at CD21/22. Now 13DPO and believe my Period will atart soon. A little deflated.

Go for it. My daughter had a missed miscarriage at 9 weeks on 22nd march. Finally got her period 2 weeks ago. She's trying again. It's a really tough time but I wish you luck.
