How long did it take you to conceive after miscarriage?

[aimiB]

Hello all.......

I had a miscarriage last Wednesday. I have read a lot about being the most fertile the month after miscarriage as your body is already ready for pregnancy and I have also read about a lot of people becoming pregnant before their first AF but my question is......

How long did it take you to get pregnant in the first place before
Miscarriage?

It took me and DH nearly 2 years to achieve this pregnancy so I haven't got much hope of concieving again so quickly. All I can think is it's going to be another 2 years before we get blessed with another chance!

So I need some hope really. Has anyone struggled to get pregnant, miscarried and the got pregnant again quickly or if it took years the first time will it take years again?



Please give me some advise.

Hello
I am 18 weeks pregnant. This is my 3rd pregnancy since september 2011. 1st miscarriage was 5 weeks, 2nd was at 7 weeks...... this time I got pregnant straight away. No period between. I ovulated on cd20 instead of 14-17 as normal then got a BFP 9 days later. 28 days after my miscarriage. My doc told me it was ok to start straight away and that sometimes you are more fertile after misarriage as body has started to prepare for pregnancy already.

I am really sorry you're having a hard time. I feel for you. Good luck and hope you get your sticky BFP soon

I'm so sorry for your loss hun

My first pregnancy ended in miscarriage and I got pregnant with my son 2 months later (so, before second af after the miscarriage). That pregnancy was perfectly normal and I have a healthy 7 year old.

We didn't struggle to conceive the first time though, so I can't help you out there.

im really sorry for your loss hun ive also heard quite alot that its really easy to get pregnant after a miscarriage but i dont know from experience however it took me three yrs to conceive my daughter but i got pregnant after just one miss hap this time so dont think because it took that long last time it will this time it could easily happen really quick for you this time round x

I didn't have diagnosed fertility issues (besides a shorter LP and low progesterone) and it took us about 6 months to conceive after our miscarriage, but it took us 6 months to conceive the one we lost too.

hello, first of all so sorry to hear about your loss.

I did not have a miscarriage as such but had an ectopic pregnancy that resulted in my right tube being removed. Long story short, i was previously married and me and my ex tried for 2 years without success, due to problems with me and my bits.

With my new OH (been with him for 6 years now) i was always wondering if we would conceive following what i had been thought with ex-husband. We started trying last jan, and in July we got a BFP, only to be rushed to hospital 2 days later with my ectopic . Words cannot describe how i felt.

They advised that we should not try for 3 months after that as I was more likely to miscarry due to my womb etc etc recovering. so as soon as October came we started again, we were on our last try in Feb (after which we were going to pay for IVF as i am 36 and still have my past problems in my head) when we got our BFP!!!!

So far so good and I am nearly 21 weeks, i never ever ever thought I would be pregnant and to be honest if i am having a normal day (no aches or pains) i forget i am as I have not yet got 100% attached just in case this one also gets taken away from me.

I know a few people who have also had miscarriages and they too were given the advice not to try for 3 months. But I know what you mean, we were tempted to try straight away but we waited as we wanted to give the next try the best possible chance.... plus i would never have forgiven myself if we did get a BFP and then had a miscarriage.

So keep going, try and stay positive as it can happen and does... I am proof of that!

sending you lots of love.

Sorry about your loss hun. I miscarried in August 2010 and got my BFP on 17th September 2010 with no period in between, I now have an amazing 13 month old xx

I'm so so sorry for your loss. I m/c at 11 weeks in December (it took us 10 months to conceive) and then got pregnant again 3 months later on our first try. I was shocked as i figured it would take another 10 months. I do recommend following your doctors advice on how long to wait to try again, as I think the body needs a little time to heal. However it may not take you as long to conceive the next time around. Best of luck to you.

I'm sorry

It certainly helped for me. I MC'd at 9-10 weeks in November '11 and got pregnant with twins in January '12

It took us just short of a year to fall pregnant the first time. I had my miscarriage in October 2011 and fell pregnant with this one in Feb 2012.

Sorry for your loss

This is my third pregnancy after 2 mmc. It took us 6 months to conceive the first time, the second time it took 2 months (although we waited for first AF before trying), with this pregnancy my OH wouldn't TTC for about 5 months after the MC but when we started TTC we fell straight away

Conceived 3rd cycle and mc at 5 weeks, we were told we could try again straight away but didn't 'try' just ntnp for a month as we were getting married and I didn't want the pressure. Conceived again (with no period in between) but immediately lost at 4+2 was told it was a chemical. That was April last year and I got my bfp in February this year so I had 9 cycles in between. If they have said you can try again straight away then go for it if you feel up to it! Good luck xxx

I'm so sorry about your loss. It took me 6 months to get pregnant the first time, and miscarried at 7 weeks. Then it took me 6 months to get pregnant again, but sadly had a missed miscarriage at 10 weeks. I had the MMC in December 2011, and found out I was pregnant with this lil babe in March 2012. It only took 1 month because my doctors told me to wait until Feb. to try again. I only had 1 period in-between the loss and this pregnancy. I've taught myself to never ever give up on what I want. Good luck!

I am very sorry for your recent loss. It is very discouraging to be in your position, but there is always hope.

When we TTC for 2nd child, I conceived on first try. I had a MMC at 12 weeks, but got pregnant again 2 months later. We chose to wait that 2 months in order for me to heal from my D&C and pinpoint my O date. We got it obviously, and now I'm back at 21 weeks.

Good luck. Use Fertility Friend website if you don't already

Sorry for your loss, thinking of you xxx

I conceived after my first month TTC but miscarried between 5 and 6 weeks. After that it took a further 3 months to conceive the baby I am currently pregnant with. However, the month we conceived this time around also happened to be the first month we used OPKs and I ovulated far later in my cycle than I thought I would. Therefore, I think we may have been able to do it sooner if I we had BD'd on the right dates on the earlier months. I think we got mega lucky the first time!

So sorry for your loss
My first pregnancy ended at 6 weeks 4 days,it the took me 9 months of NTNP to conceive again.
This was back in '99 and i was 18

 

[MommaDucky]

I've lost 5 and each one was different. After the first and second we didn't try right away.After my 3rd it took about 6 months of active trying, after my fourth it took 8 months, and after my fifth it took 3 weeks. I wish you luck, all my losses were 5-7wks.

 

[akire01]

I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks 5 days naturally. I got pregnant the 2nd time we had sex after the miscarriage (they tell you to wait 2 weeks, so I got pregnant 2 weeks and 1 day after the miscarriage). Good luck!

 

[Feronia]

I had a miscarriage in July 2011 at 7 weeks and then didn't try to conceive until November of 2011. I fell pregnant again in December 2011 and miscarried at 5 weeks. I then fell pregnant again 2 cycles later in March 2012 -- so far so good at almost 16 weeks!

Best of luck on your next pregnancy, and my condolences about your previous losses.
