Well ladies, I had my follow up appt today and it went really well. My doctor said that my cervix and uterus are back to normal and everything looks good. He also told me that when I get pregnant again, let them know right away and they will do blood work immediately and then blood work again after a little while to make sure the levels are rising appropriately. He also said they will do an earlier ultrasound next time (this time, my 1st visit wasn't even until 9 weeks).

I also asked him if we have to wait until after my first cycle (TMI--I've been having lots of creamy CM yesterday and today), but he said *yes*! He said it's better to let the tissue fully heal one complete cycle and also to be able to properly date the pregnancy...Oh well, it was worth a shot

Glad to hear all is well with you and your body! Sounds like your doctor is awesome, very proactive! My doctor was kinda like oh it's so common, we'll wait til you have two or three m/c in a row before we get worried. WHAT?!?! Anyhow, sounds like you're in great hands!

Waiting sucks, but it'll all be worth it soon

My doctor did tell me that 1 miscarriage is common (he told me his wife had 3 in a row before they had any of the 8 kids they have now!), but I am definitely glad he will atleast be keeping a little closer eye on everything!

Glad to hear your appointment went so well!!! Waiting 1 cycle sounds very reasonable as well!!

I've also heard that 1 miscarriage is common, but, hope nobody ever has to go through it!!! I'm also glad to hear your doctor knows first hand what you and your husband went through! At least you know he's not coming to you without the experience, you know?

Good luck after your cycle!!! Hope you get preggers right away!!!
