    After a miscarriage....

    does your cycle kick straight back in????

    I am just really interested to know if we would have much chance this cycle...

    if natural m/c - your body should just keep going - so yes.

    I had 1 natural m/c and had a cycle 2 days longer than normal for me the next time and 1 D & C which made my cycle 35 days instead of 27.

    Hope that helps in some way - and good luck.

    I had a natural miscarriage in Oct 07 and ever since then my cycle has been all over the place... I even got up to CD70 at one stage. Thankfully everything aligned and I fell pregnant with this bubba.

    After my first m/c my cycle went straight back to a 28 day cycle like I always had.
    After my 2nd I had my AF 4 weeks later but my cycle in general was a little shorter, and remained the same after the 3rd. There was about 3 to 4 months between 2nd, 3rd & 4th pregnancies, the last one being the successful one. Best of luck.

    I know someone that fell pregnant 4 weeks after her m/c - d&c. She didnt get a period.
    I have just finished my first period after d&c and did ovulate. Hoping to try for a bubs this next cycle!

    Hi
    A question for those whose cycles went back straight away:
    Did you take the day of the actual MC as day 1?
    Did you use opks? Just wondering if they still work if you have a little bit of hcg still in your system?
    I MCed on Sunday night (9wks) but I was bleeding lightly from last Wednesday and I just want to try again right away.

    I had a D&C and my cycle returned to a spot on 28 day cycle. Before that it was all over the place, and I mean all over the place! I took the day of my D&C as CD01, although I had had my bub a week before my D&C. So, I probably should have taken it from there...

    Took my body a while to get back on track and still is to be honest.

    Hi, After my m/c at 16 wks i had a d&c and i bleed for about two weeks, then i had my period two weeks after that, my first cycle was 25 days then it moved to 28 days.

    Q: How long should I wait to try again? My Dr. told me to wait for as long as I was prenant, but I don't see why can't try sooner..

    After losing DS#1 at 19 1/2 weeks we were advised by our ob to wait 1 cycle - which was 5 weeks - and then could try again. We got pregnant that cycle ( so number 2 after loss) with DS#2.

    Good luck!!

    I feel relieved to have found this forum. I am new here i was 12 weeks pregnant last monday 17.2.09 I started spotting, Tuesday i had an U/S and was informed my baby had passed away 3 or weeks previously, Wednesday I was booked in for a D&C. I feel like like it all happened to somebody else I feel so empty and desperately want to fall pregnant. It's been 10 days since the D&C and I am still bleeding does anybody have any suggestions when I can try again for another baby I was told 2 cycles but at the moment that feels like a lifetime away. I see the OB next week to find ot the pathology results and I feel scared .And then there is everybody making their comments (You already have two maybe it's meant to be) and telling there stories and I just feel like I want to hide from the world.

    Smile don't worry, be happy....

    Charm,
    I completely understand how you feel right now. I have been where you are and it feels like the clock won't move- the days are so long, and so are the sleepless nights. But hope always prevails. It has been two months since my m/c and it feels like a world away some days and other days it feels like it just happened. Just remember not to look too far into the future. I used to get overwhelmed if I thought about anything a week in advance. So I decided to take one day at a time, one breath, one minute, etc. until I could feel comfortable with my life after my loss.
    Just take it easy, and good luck with ttc.
    I have to wait for my husbandto get back home before we can try some more, one month to be exact. It feels like forever sometimes.

Yes definately one day at a time I am sooo glad it's friday I am doing all cleaning and washing today so hubby the kids and I can have a really relaxing weekend.Big hugs to you until your husband comes home and my fingers and toes will be crossed when he does take care CJgurlie.

    Papilion:

    Am i right in saying you concieved straight after your m/c? We lost our little one 2 weeks ago, I ovulated the other day and Im hoping we are lucky like that. Although I think we only did it the day before ovulation and no other days because I just didnt feel liek it a great deal.

    Did you do anything special? If you dont mind me asking please... Did you have a natural m/c or did you have a d/c? I had the tablets to induce a "labour" it was awful but natural at least! Hoping that makes for a healthy uterine lining!
