Hey guys. I miscarried last friday and not sure if i'm normal or not but i want to Ttc when my body feels better asap. Is this normal? Nurse said wait til next af but i'd rather start in a week or 2. Some say this is fine but others have said it's dangerous and baby could have neural defects etc. Any advice? I've heard you're more fertile after mc and feel like once cramps have stopped it would help me to Ttc. I've self-certified from work this week but am already fretting i won't be ready to go back on monday. I was off for ten weeks two years ago after some other life trauma so i get paranoid about what they think. I was only 6weeks so they might think i'm wierd needing this length of time! What should i do? X

so sorry to hear about your miscarriage
I think it is better to wait for your period to come because then you can date the pregnancy and also give your chance to get back to normal
re work, don't rush it if you don't feel ready just yet xxx
