How long did it take you to conceive after a MC & D&C?

Hi Bliss,

Glad to hear the good news, you are so lucky to fall pg so soon and that the scan and bt's have all been good.

I had an early m/c in Jan 05 at around 6wks, didnt have a D&C cause the doc said I didnt need one. Fell pg during the second cycle after m/c and had yet another early m/c at 9 weeks in April 05. Once again doc didnt want me to have a D&C. After the guy I was with then was told to politely leave, I met another man and we had unprotected sex for years and finally I fell pg in April 2007 only to have yet another early m/c at 11 weeks. The doc didnt want me to have a D&C yet again!

I was referred to a specialist and he got me in to have a D&C asap. I only had very light bleeding after the D&C (even tho this wasnt after a m/c) and af arrived 28 days later as if it was a normal cycle. I had all the tests that they thought was necessary and Im a "normal" woman!!! So anyway, after having that m/c in June 07 I still havent been able to conceive. Im not exactly sure, but I think that my dp has a fertility problem cause he hasnt got any children and the baby I lost to him wouldve been his first child.

Well all the best for the rest of your pregnancy and I hope that all goes well for you.

Good luck
Lindy.

I have got my fingers sooooo crossed for you. I know that my biggest fear is going to be another m/c when i get my next BFP.

I read your posts and kept scrolling up quickly to see your updates. So far so good....... My thoughts are with you

Did you lose twins?
It is nerve racking, though the signs are much better than last time. My last pregnancy was filled with drama, that having heavy bleeding and 48 blood tests, followed by a scan all by 6 weeks didnt seem too crazy compared to last time! : ) I feel MUCH better now that I have seen a heart beat and know everything is the right size. However at the same time I am well aware that I am only at 7 weeks and things can change. I am just hoping that all will be great. Also, the odds are against me having a second MC in a row (though I know many of you have them), so am trying to keep that in mind too.
When will you try again?

Yes..... I had twins.... did my heart skip a beat when i first saw a twins pram..... unfortunately the pram ended up being irrelivant. But yes, I was having twins.

Wow Lindy, what a journey.
I am amazed at the strength of all the woman in here and feel blessed to be able to share your stories. It makes my experience seem small to a lot of yours.
I am surprised that you didnt have any D&Cs for the 3 MCs that you had. I have had two since Sept, one as the gyno just wanted to have a look (I had very long cycles) (though I was actually pregnant when he did it!!!!...another long story I posted on here), and one for my MC. I think my OB does a D&C once you are after 6ish/7ish weeks.
I am thrilled that all seems OK and hopefully it is just time before you get pregnant again. Would your partner have a test?
