I m/c'd on the 20th and passed the placenta naturally one the 26th of June. I just quit bleeding yesterday. The only question I didn't ask the Dr. was when can I DTD again?? How long are you supposed to wait? He told me to wait 3 cycles before trying again, but it's been awhile.....

First of all, I am sorry for your loss

How far along were you when you m/c?

I would think you could DTD now but just don't really TTC until after your first cycle... but then again I'm not sure. Sorry I am of no big help. I had to wait 4 weeks, but I'm pretty sure that's because I had to have surgery

I was induced at 17w pg and had a d&c after for hemeraging due to retained placenta.

I have always waited till the bleeding stops and never out 5 m/c and 3 d&c 2 after 17w babies have had a prob with infection or anything.

I'm pretty sure the doctor said we had to wait 2 weeks before DTD. I would call your doctor just to be sure. Hope you are doing ok.

I thinking waiting until the bleeding has stopped is good enough, but don't be afraid to give your doctor a call and see what they say

Sorry to hear about your loss

Sorry I didn't see this post before.


I was told to wait two weeks.

I waited two days I didn't care about infection... I just wanted to feel normal. I didn't get an infection thank goodness. It was pretty dumb on my part...but oh well.

I was told to wait till after the first AF to TTC again.

I'm also sorry for your loss. I was also told after my m/c to wait 2 weeks (Which was only a couple days after the bleeding stopped... I bled for like 11 days, i think) and we had to wait for 1st AF after m/c to ttc. Good luck and look forward to getting to know you!
