I seem to have gotten some conflicting information from my midwife, the doctor who is in practice with her and my GP. I have seen all within the past 4 weeks or so. They all were helping to deal with my loss and health during the MC and D & C. And they all said a different time when we could start trying again.
So now I am utterly confused!! My midwife told me to wait three months from my D & C. My GP said there was no reason to wait at all, as long as I was past the two week point (from the D & C) that we could try for another. My doctor who did the actual procedure said to wait a month, one cycle of getting a normal period and then we could start trying.
Anyone on here have a definative answer? I mean, all of those are fine, but I don't want to risk another loss if I concieve too early. There was no blatant reason for the loss, I don't have any uterine issues, it wasn't hormonal, and it implanted just fine. They said it was most likely an unhealthy egg. So...any light to shed?? I would re-ask a doc...but I got three different answers!! Lol.
You should atleast wait until your next period. Only because it helps date the pregnancy. MC bleeding doesn't count as a period, so it can't be used to date the pregnancy...
My doctors told me different times with my first m/c too. One said three months, one said one, and another said I could start right away. With the first one I waited the three months. The second time I started right away and got pg with DD. There really isn't a definitive answer, it's about what's right for you physically and emotionally, but waiting until you get AF is a good idea so that it makes dating the pregnancy easier.

Thank you *Kiliki* for the beautiful tag in memory of Jenn!
I was told 2 cycles by one and 1 cycle by another but have read that there really isn't a set amount of time you have to wait. I'm waiting for my first AF just so I can have a better date. I'm hoping my cycles will regulate or I may be waiting a very long time.
Thank you so much ladies. It looks like the general consensus is to wait one cyce and that is what I will do I appreciate you clearing it up for me, I understand better now. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long to leave this room behind (not that you aren't great! Lol).
My doctor and midwife both said wait one cycle and then go ahead and TTC again. If your body isn't ready I don't think you will get pregnant.
I hope you are out of here soon!
