Just had mc at 7wks and Dr. advised waiting until after 1 cycle before ttc again. Just wanted to see if this is typical advice. Feel both physically and emotionally ready to try again so if I actually ovulate is it a big deal if you conceive before getting your period or any higher risk of miscarrying again?

If you do not wait one cycle it is hard to tell how far along you are so it could cause undue stress(i.e you go in for 7 week visit but can't see a heartbeat, could be because your not really that far along or it could be your about to miscarry) but that is about it [ Reply | More

that is what I was told as well as being a PITA patient to the doctor. You need to do a gut check and see if you are really over the miscarrage. [ Reply | More

OP - having trouble posting. My mc was 7 weeks, but because my HCG levels were so low I think that development stopped a lot earlier so I in terms of the actual miscarriage it was natural and really only felt like a period. I guess that is why I feel ready to try again as it almost feels like I just had a late period... [ Reply | More

I think they tell you this for purposes of dating but also to let you get over it emotionally. There is also some evidence that the uterine lining might not be sufficient to sustain a pregnancy after a d&c if you don't go through one full cycle first. FWIW I got pregnant accidentally immediately after having a d&c at 16 weeks and had a healthy pregnancy. However, I had a lot of bleeding first trimester and it was very stressful. [ Reply | More
