Hi Ren, you've already got some good advice here, and I'll say this as well...
My questions are -
* Is this bleeding basically now my AF? does it count as my AF?
Yes. Remember, a m/c at that stage is the failure of the embryo to stay attached to the endometrium. The embryo was a cluster of cells (100s/1000s) and wouldn't have been visible to the naked eye. Therefore, in theory, your AF shouldn't be significantly heavier than normal.
* Is it safe to TTC so soon after having an early m/c?
I believe so, given how early this one was, but check with your doc. As you said in your other thread, this happens every day to women and they don't even know, and therefore don't modify their TTC. I think it may have even happened to DW and I pre-IVF (wonder of wonders)
* Do i need to have a D&C? (i don't even know what one is?)
No. A Dilation and Curettage removes foetal tissue from the uterus when it cannot be effectively expelled by the body. This is more likely to occur towards the end of the first trimester, and certainly not in your case, so don't worry about that.
* Should we wait 1 more cycle before trying? (we really don't want to).
I wouldn't have thought so.
* I've been told that when you have an early m/c, it's almost like "flushing" your system out in a way hence some women fall pregnant straight after - is this true? (for some)
Have heard this - don't know. Doesn't sound like fertility is an issue for you guys so it's a bit irrelevant!
Good luck, Ren.
