Trying again the cycle after a loss?

When I first found out I was pregnant, both DH and I were excited. Then I had a miscarriage. I tried the next month and succeeded. I then ended up delivering a stillborn, in which I didn't really try but got pregnant the next month again. I want a baby...

My son is going to be 6 when this one is born and I really didn't want to have my children spaced that far apart. I am tired of being pregnant and not having anything to really show for it yet. I have a son who isn't with me, but I want another that I can get to know I guess...

I don't think I would change anything. I love all of my experiences and the time I have had with my babies. I just hope this one will last a little longer...

After my first m/c my midwife told me to wait until i had had 1 normal period. I had my m/c at 12.5 wks. I actually didn't have af until 10 wks after the m/c and did not o for a while after that. I got pg the first time that i o'd. I lost that baby at 6wks. my midwife told me i could get pg whenever. No need to wait. We were not trying but not avoiding and got pg right away. I am not sure if i am emotionally ready for this yet. I don't feel very grounded. I certainly do not regret that i am pg, i want a baby so bad. I just want to be able to relax a little. This is just my experience. I think each individual person is different and each loss is different. Do what is in your heart, mama.

My first pregnancy ended at 4 months. We were overwhelmed, shocked, sad and so, so afraid. Yet we also knew we were meant to be parents...we just KNEW.

I decided not to wait, and within one month of that delivery was pg again. That pg is now a 32 MO amazing boy. His younger brother is 7 months this weekend.

Regardless of what any professional says, YOU know your heart and emotional state -and there are endless stories of happy endings where pgcy occurred right away.

You will find peace, and your time will come.

I considered it but my first period was a whole 8 days long and extremely heavy which told me I still need to heal more. I usually bleed 3-4 days and I'm done so decided against it. Like others have said my midwife said there is no reason to wait and to go for it if you feel it is right.

Do you know if this is assuming you've had a d&c?

I was about to post the same exact question.

Just mc recently, and have this feeling that I starting to O (havent been charting, but cm is getting close). MW also told me its best to wait a month...also to let the lining replenish and for my beta to drop back down (I didnt have a dc)

So, my beta was 80 early this week, Ive stopped bleeding/spotting, dont have another beta til tues...but my heart is telling me to do it now. I honestly dont think I have the patience to wait a whole month. It took us forever to get this far.

(and I have had dreams that I have triplets from tcc after this mc...not sure what that means...but Im interperting it to mean go for it!)
