TW: Miscarriage & pregnancy straight after

[weeginger]

Hi ladies 🩷

I miscarried at 7w last month (2nd pregnancy, have a happy healthy 4yo). I started bleeding (on a Wed) and went for a scan, they said I had a hemotoma outside of the sac but scan was healthy with heartbeat. Two days later I miscarried, which was confirmed on the Sunday. Really awful time! Feels sad and raw that we saw a heartbeat and had planned for a Christmas announcement to family.

Anyway, at the scan confirming miscarriage, the midwife made a fleeting comment about women being "back within a few months" 🙃 and I thought "oh God I can't imagine that right now, that wont be me" but here I am having had sex the day of my LH peak this month (24-48 hours before ovulation so have had sex on the days running up to ovulation). First period after miscarriage is estimated for next week but I'm feeling a lot of pregnancy symptoms again. Has anyone on here ever gotten pregnant the cycle after a loss before period? I'm feeling quite anxious about it and counting down the days to a test (currently 7dpo I think) x

Yes, in April this year I miscarried at 7 weeks. On 1st May I got a BFP and was pregnant again without a period (lost that one too but ready many stories of women who had a successful pregnancy after a miscarriage without a period)

Good luck to you 🤞🏼

Oh thank you! I'm sorry to hear of your losses 🩷 One after the other couldn't have been easy

Sprry for your loss, i know its a hard time. I miscarried at 8 and half weeks, and then was pregnant the next cycle (can't exactly remember if it was before or after period) but that second pregnancy is a healthy 8 year old. Good luck

Im pregnant and didn’t have a period after my MMC, I’m only approaching 7 weeks and hoping for the best. I’ve seen many positive threads on this on mumsnet, hoping it can never be too soon for a rainbow x

I am so sorry for your loss.

I had one very short cycle after my miscarriage but conceived on my first proper cycle after this- I think cycles can take one or two to reestablish themselves.

Very anxious but healing pregnancy and have a beautiful little boy now and pregnant with my second.

Hoping better days are coming for you soon.

I'm 39 weeks pregnant and didn't have a period between thos pregnancy and one I miscarried in Jan/Feb around 5 weeks. Good luck!

Yes, DD16 was conceived December after miscarriage in the November
My obstetrician told mr not so bother waiting TTC after miscarriage, she was a miscarriage expert and said people often say that so they get an accurate due date of a pregnancy that is viable , but she felt a miscarriage can help TTC as your body is primed and ready to go - just her own working theory
Good luck

Aw that is great news 🩷 Thank you for your reply!

Oh my goodness, wishing you allllll the luck 🩷 Hope you're feeling ok! I hope this is me soon 🥹

Aw lovely 🩷 Thank you for your reply and advice, I really hope this is the case for me soon!

OP do you have any updates? I’m in exact same boat as when you first posted (have a 4yr old ; miscarried at 7 wks, now about 8dpo & having symptoms)

thanks!

Wow so similar! AF arrived me for today, I was 5 days late 🥲 Must have just been a strange first cycle, but it was hard seeing negative tests and it's not pleasant bleeding again. Maybe have a wee Christmas surprise 🤞🏼

Thanks for getting back to me. All fingers crossed for a Christmas surprise for you xxx

Fingers crossed for you too!! 🤞🏼 Give us a comment either way!
