Pandagirl - I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Losing a baby is one of the most difficult things I have had to go through in my life (twice so far unfortunately). After my first m/c GP said no reason to wait that we could ttc straight away. I asked for tests after my second m/c (actually Ob offered I was lucky) - nothing was really found but I was much more confident when ttc again. Many doctors will not order investigations until you have had 3 m/c but I believe that if you want tests and are willing to pay for them then you should be able to get them regardless. If you really feel that you would like some tests before ttc again then there is no harm in asking (or you may need to demand). The minute you find out you are pg you have a connection with that bub so that precious week you knew you were carrying that Bub will be in your heart forever.
Good luck - some days seem really dull but the sun will shine again and you will have a healthy bub in your arms one day. Some days I never thought it would happen for us and my precious little man is now just over 3 weeks old. He is worth everything that I've been through to get him - it's a tough journey but it is worth it.
Are you taking folate & or a pregnancy vitamin? Might be a good idea if you are not doing that already.
Good luck - I hope you have lots of good support. The ladies in here are great - I found it so much easier to cope once I joined BB.
