My husband i were very excited when we found out we were pregnant for the first time after trying for only 2 months...we told my 'rents and sis/b-i-l but that was it. when we returned for our check up the ultrasound showed the baby stopped growing 2 weeks prior. I had a D&C the next day and was back to work right away as well. Weekends are my hardest times because i just think about "where i should be at this time if i was still pregnant."
It has only been 3 weeks, but they seem the longest and hardest more than anything. I can't wait to start trying again, but want to wait the suggest 2 cycles by my OB. I fear the day of being pregnant again becuase i don't want to relapse to where i am today. I think this way because my sister had m/cm dh brother's wife had m/c and i feel like i will be back to where i am today.

does anyone have the same feelings or situation?

i also wonder when will i have my first mp since my m/c? My doc never informed me when to expect it so does anyone have any idea??

I am so sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss! I know it can be overwhelming to even think of being pregnant again after going through a m/c. There are a lot of feelings to work through and your body has to heal. But you will know when you are ready to start TTC again. You should get your period in around 4-6 weeks.

I'm so sorry about your m/c. I know how devastating it is and how scary it is to get pregnant again afterwards. You'll probably feel like you're waiting for the other shoe to drop for a while, but it IS possible to get pregnant again after a m/c and it happens all the time.

As for your next period, my OB told me it would be 2-4 weeks after my D&C, but it was actually closer to 5-6 weeks, though I can't remember exactly.
