Questions & Answers

Its really not good to get pregnant to soon after m/c. The doctors told me to wait about 3 months but i should wait about 6 months...i had my first m/c in July of 09' and my second on Easter day 2010. after that i didn't want to get pregnant again for fear i may m/c again...so i waited a little more than a year and de-stressed in that year...and now i am 28weeks pregnant and so far everything looks good with my baby boy Kaiden Rae <3 i wish you the best!

well my doctor said after my miscarriage at 12 weeks pg with a dnc to just wait until i at least had my next period but we didnt successfully get pregnant until our 3rd month after.....

When you have a dnc, it thins out your uterine wall much more severely than a miscarriage without dnc. We had a miscarriage and dnc in march and all the docs we saw, ER, surgeon, and OB said to wait 3 months. It seems like a long time, but it will go by quickly. You want to be as healthy as possible to avoid any complications with the next one....even if you make it through those complications, you will regret going ahead so early and putting your baby, and possibly you, in danger. So sorry for your loss...really. Take this time to heal and let your body heal too. Prayers!

We lost our daughter at 18 weeks and also had a dnc. I lost a lot of blood during the procedure so the doctor told us to wait at least 3 months before trying again. I was also put on iron supplements to help build up the uterin lining for our next baby. While the pain of the loss is still there (and I think it will always be there), having a new baby to think about has really helped us cope. Your doctor cannot tell you when you are emotionally ready to try again, but he should be able to tell you when you can medically handle another baby. Good luck to you. I'm sending prayers your way.

I just want this empty feeling to go away. My doc put me on anti depressents today I don't feel like hurting myself but I can't sleep and I've lost almost 15lbs due to not wanting to eat. So hope these help me get bfack on track until we get blessed again. Pkus I'm tired of cryn about everything

Hey RK,
When we lost our son our at 20 weeks our doctor told us we had to wait at least 6 months to try again. Reason being because my body would take awhile to get ready again and and emotionally we wouldn't have been ready. You should talk to you doctor and let her know what you are thinking and how you feel. I remember after I had my son looking at my husband and saying we are doing this again and next time we are having a happy ending. I have been thinking about you a lot but didn't want to bug you. I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

My friend & I were trying to get pregnant around the same time & we did,about a month apart & a few days after she found out she was pregnant she started bleeding & miscarried,no DNC was needed because it was so early,but she wound up getting pregnant again rite after she quit bleeding & the doctors had told her she was to wait at least 3 months,so much for that! She had complications from the very beginning,there was blood on top of the sac & she was bleeding,she had to go in every 2 wks for check ups because things didn't look good. She is now 14weeks along but she still shouldve waited so that her body couldve cleaned out better & got back to normal. I think its best if you wait a few cycles & then try.

Do what you feel is right. If you want to try again go ahead. Start taking prenatal vitamins now so your body will help get ready =) Good luck and sorry for your loss.
