Re: Not sure what board this goes on but, How soon after...

My OB told me to use condoms until 3 months after -- he has a patient who got pregnant 3 weeks aftter her M/C (had not even gotten a period yet) and miscarried that one as well.

So I think you are fertile quite quickly but it is not advisable to actually get pregnant until you hae gone through your cycle at least 3 times -- to help get the uterus back in shape so to speak.... What does your Dr. say?

I know girls on here who've gotten PG a week or 2 after miscarrying - my dr. told me to wait at least one AF cycle before TTC again... but it can happen right away!Chat Icon

Thank youChat Icon

At the time of the MC we were not trying. I didn't even know I was PG. My Dr. told me to wait to be intimate for 2 weeks and then you can go back to "normal".

Re: Not sure what board this goes on but, How soon after...

I had a miscarriage on 12/12/04. Went to my Dr's office two weeks later for a follow-up and he told us to wait 2-3 months. Well, what we didn't know was at the time of the follow-up I was pregnant again! I conceived about one week after the m/c. I was TERRIFIED, but when I saw my ob/gyn again, he assured me that there is absolutely no statistical evidence that conceiving right after a miscarriage raises your risk of a recurrent miscarriage. He even said that the research shows that women tend to be most fertile in the first few months following a miscarriage. He told me the only reason why he recommends waiting a few months is (a) for emotional reasons, and (b) superstition from the old days. Now, here I am 23 weeks pregnant and our little bean is doing just wonderfully. Good luck in whatever you decide! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I was told to wait two months before TTC. I think it depnds on how far along you are. The farther along, the longer the wait.
