D & C advice needed!

Hi,

I’m having a D & C tomorrow. How long after can you try to conceive again? Some people say that you’re very fertile after a miscarriage.

Thanks

Hi hifer. I would wait until you have a period. I'm sure they will explain to you. Hope all goes well with the procedure. Thinking of you. Diane

Thank you, very kind. They actually said wait for 2 cycles. I just know loads of people who got pregnant the following month so just wanted to hear peoples experience. X

Hi hifer. Yes, that is the text book answer, as the first bleed may not be on time! Diane

Thank you xx

Hi Hun, when I had one in Dec 17 they told me to have at least two clear cycles before trying again. Sending you big hugs at this difficult time xx

I think your question has been answered but I just wanted to say that I hope all goes smoothly today. I’ve been there. Rest up for a few days. Sorry for your loss xx

Thank you very much. Yes all over and done with now so just need to rest and sleep! Xx

Sorry my experience is a bit gloomy, I didnt wait for first period after both of my miscarriages I ovulated straight after bleeding (natural mc) didnt conceive. Sometimes your body needs time to heal so dont be dishearten if you dont everyone thinks theyre extra fertile so have big hopes then crash when you get your period Ive cried so many times after, Some people do tho if theyre super lucky . Took us 6 cycles after our first mc to conceive again but we have lost that one too at 13w so onto cycle 3 again not giving up tho. Do take care of yourself after d&c and rest xx

So sorry for your loss. Also thank you for managing my expectations. You’re right, it’s very dangerous to get your hopes up so that’s appreciated.

Wishing you all the best for the next cycle
