    ttc after a miscarriage! and terrified

    Well  thursday night i notice when i went to  the bathroom after i wiped i  was spotting pink never been through this situation so when i seen that it instantly scared me although people say its o.k me seeing it for  myself it still caught me by suprise.. but after getting over the shock I went on with my day ...Last night around 7pm the same situation occured with more this time still the same color and still having it right now as i speak ... so here i am  in shock again... We got ready and headed  to the e.r only to find out that i wasnt bleeding much from the pap smear results and after the pap smear but in all reality it was bad enough to the point where i needed a pad... i was sent  for an ultrasound that ended up making me lose my mind the couldnt find the baby.. she also said that it could be to early or either im in process of having a m/c and thats scared me so bad ive never been in this situation like i said before.. but this really hurts me to my heart to know this.. i well i ended up head back to the e.r before i made it o my appt in 2 weeks for another ultrasound and found out i lost the baby .. well ive stop bleeding and no spotting at all now its been like 4days since i stopped spotting... my doctor told us its fine to try again soon but i rather wait until i at least have 2 cycles before going through with again..  well has anyone here had a m/c and expecting or had a healthy baby after a m/c .. and how soon did you get pregnant after the m/c...

     Missb08,

    I am sorry for your loss! It is very hard! I had a miscarriage at 11 1/2 weeks about 5 years ago, and it was devistating. However my doctor told me to wait 3 months and try again, so I agreed. However we werent doing anything to prevent it from happening if it did. My periods were a little out of whack after the miscarriage and finally I thought something wasnt right. So I took another test and it was positive. I was shocked because I had a light period each month still, however when I went to the doctor they told me I was about 3 months along. Which meant I conceived exactly 1 week after the miscarriage. This pregnancy was a perfect one and he is now a rowdy loud almost five year old. Have faith, if it is meant to be it will happen for you!

    Missb08.

    I am sorry for your lost. I know how you feel.  About 13 years ago I TTC going through 5 years of infertility treatment.  At the 5th year, I was available to concieve.  Six months into the pregnancy my water breaks and I by the time I made it to the hospital it was to late to save my baby girl. I tried again 3 months afterwards but nothing.. I got a divorce after  that. Now 8 years later me and my husband we thinking about starting a family some time in April of this year.  We were getting ready to see the speciality so that I could start treatment.  To our discover last week when my period was due I started to feel sick.  My husband kept on saying that he thinks I am pregnant because of the way I was feeling and the way I looked.  I did not believe him.  After 3 positive tests I decided to make a doctor's appointment.  Long and behold we are six weeks and 2 days.  What I am trying to say is it is okay to be scare.  I am and it's been 8 years for me, but the moral story to this is when it is meant to be it will happen.  The less you think about it the less stress you will have the easier it will be to conceive.  Take me as an example and a miracle.  I was told by 6 doctors that it I did not do the treatment I could not get pregnant.  I guess I proved them wrong....  By experience you start to love your child the moment you know you are pregnant and no matter what happens you never stop loving them.  I still to this day miss my daughter dearly, especially since I was able to hold my child for a moment. You just need to learn not to let that effect you so that next time it will be that stressful.

    Hi I am new here..I had a m/c  last month. We were so excited it was a surprise and his first baby. I already have a son. anyway, then we lost  it.. It went pretty quick,  within a week all was done.  I didn't have a d&c. The doc. said my body handled it perfectly ,I have been given a clean bill of health.My HCG levels were back to under  5, less than 5   days after the loss.  Amazing how quick it can be gone and how long it takes to have a precious one. I am just waiting to finally get my AF , but I have had nothing but butterfly cramps for the last week. Could I possibly be pregnant this soon. Yes we have been intamiate  twice.   I am  a bit scared as  I dont want to loose another one. How long does it take to get AF after an MC?

     Whne should I  take a test. I know  don't stress it makes it worse, and i  do try to focus on the positive things.. This site has been a big help in  my greiving . My deepest prayers for all tht have lost. baby dust to all.

    I kind of know where you are coming from I found out that I was pregnant last June then I was bleeding but not enough to soak a pad.  I called my doctor and they said that my baby was fine.  Then the bleeding stopped.  Everytime I went to the doctor they could never find a heartbeat for my baby so they had to order an ultrasound.  Then I had my Quad tests done and they called me on my birthday and told me that there was a chance that my baby could have down syndrome.  Then they set me up an appointment at a hospital 2 hours from my house for a 3 D ultrasound.  At this point I am 17 weeks pregnant.  When I went for the ultra sound I found out that my baby had died and I had carried it for 2 weeks.  So then we went back to my doctor and they scheduled me to meet with one of my doctors the next day so he could insert a pill thing to help me dialate.  Then they scheduled me for D&C on September 14.  Afer that whole thing my doctor told me to give it like 2 months to try again.  I have been trying for like four months or so and I am not pregnant yet.

    Tori,

     Hello Sorry to hear of your lose. I have learned thru a family member who has gone thru 4 MC's that it takkes time and not to stress.  Her last Mc she had to have a D&C done and   found out a few weeks later she was pregnant again and now she has a beautiful baby girl....

    I got my AF 4 weeks to the day after my MC and i called my OB and she said all is a go. but to not get over worried if it doesn't happen right away. My husband and I have decided to just put it in  god's hands at this point. This was our first together and it was a surprise and he feels that if we put forth a big concentrated effort in trying he doesn't want to see me get upset when it is time for AF to come and it does so we decided to just  enjoy our quality time together in the bedroom and not make it into a  job sotra say If that makes sense.. .  Yes i know that all of us that have  gone thru this want nothing more than  to become pregnant again I know I do,  but I also know that if I dwell to much it will drive me nuts.. Good luck to you dear...   I will keep you posted please do the same..  angel baby dust to you  ********

    Sorry for your loss, a really sad time for you, give yourself a big cry, then a big hug, you deserve it. I had a m/c in Oct. of 2003 of identical twins at eight weeks. It was sad too. I had to have a d&c cuz my body didn't know exactly what to do. I think most of the time when a doc says to wait three cycles is when you had a d&c cuz they have to clean the uterus, and then it needs to heal, otherwise they say to wait usually one cycle if you did not need a d&c. I also had two babies born with anencephaly.  Only way I could get through the loss of my babies is to say to myself, that I know who will be waiting for me at the pearly gates when God decides it is my time to go to Heaven. My babies have angel wings, and now so does yours. Please know I will say a prayer for you and yours. Peace.

    I found out I was pregnant on January 20, 2008. My fiance and I were very excited and immediately began planning for our baby. All of that came to an end for me on February 18 after my second ultrasound at almost 7 weeks and there was no baby in the sac. Two weeks before that my fiance had to go away and he will not be back until next month so I decided not to tell him until he gets back. I feel like I am all alone although I have had my mom to comfort me it is just not the same. I plan on ttc when my fiance gets back if everything works out with us. I'm praying that it does. I hope everything works out well for you also.

    I am sorry to hear about your loss. I Miscarried back in November, i know exactly how you feel. I am currently a week late and believe that i could be pregnant. I have heard many successful stories but i have also heard the other end of that too. A friend of mine went through at least three miscarriages but now has a 2 month baby girl. Hang in there, it gets better. I personally waited until i had one normal cycle before trying again.

We have been trying since Oct cuz I want our children to be close in age and I am petrified to start trying again! It's the scariest thing I've ever been through! I hope you are ok! I will pray for you and your family!!!!

    Well after being two weeks late I started. SUCKS. My cycles have been all messed up. I am seriously out of wack now. When I first miscarried I didn't have weird periods but now I am having them. We have decided to try again but with the way my cycles have been its made it extremely difficult. Well I hope to here back from you.

    So, were you still bleeding from teh miscarriage when you concieved the healthy baby?  The reason I ask is that with my cycles, I usually ovulate around day 12 and have a longer lutneal phase.  I had a m/c on May 8th and am still bleeding, although more gummy and older blood that I was (sorry if TMI).  I thought I had to wait until I stopped bleeding completely, just to avoid infection.  We have no desire to wait 2-3 cylces on purpose.  Plus the clock is ticking as I am going to be 39 in Aug. Smile

    Any thoughts would be great.

    Thanks!
