Again, I'm sorry for your loss. Just take your time, but when you're ready to try again, just try. I am convinced that the trouble I had conceiving after the Cytotec were because my body was exhausted and I didn't give it enough time to heal. I don't think it had anything to do with the Cytotec. I wish you all the best, and hope you will conceive (and carry to full-term) very soon!

I'm very sorry for you loss!
With my first miscarriage, in January last year, baby stopped growing at 7.5 weeks. I decided I wanted to try Cytotec, since I don't really like hospitals that much. I had tp take 4 tablets intravaginally, and a few hours later I started bleeding and lost the baby. I bled for two more weeks, and had my first period about 5 weeks after that.
Then a year started in which I felt bad, I conceived several times but somehow wasn't able to hold on to it. So positive HPT, and a day later my period came.
We finally conceived again, but that baby stopped growing at 6 weeks. Since I felt comfortable with Cytotec, I tried that again. Unfortunately, although I did lose the baby, there was leftover tissue that wouldn't disappear and I had to have a d&c.
We decided to wait three monts, and conceived on the first try after that. All is well now, and I am currently 20 weeks pregnant. Continue above

I'm so sorry for your loss! I m/c in October 2011 at 8 weeks. I chose to have a d&c because I didn't want to sit around and wait on everything to start. I had to take cytotec 5 hours before my d&c, and after the d&c was over I bled for about 2 weeks, then didn't have another period until December 17th, and got pregnant that cycle. Now 35 weeks. When you're ready to try again, go for it. again, so sorry for your loss!
