Default pregnancy after miscarriage

I am what's 95% sure going through a miscarriage right now. It's my first miscarriage but my first pregnany I had a healthy baby who is now 2 1/2. I am 13 1/2 wks. and devastated. Anyhow, how soon has women who have had miscarriage gotten pregnant after? I am hoping to get pregnant as soon as possible, as my sure and doctor say as soon as I feel ready I can try again.

I am so so sorry you are going through this right now.
I think that every woman who has survived a miscarriage hoped to get pregnant as soon as possible.
If I could give you one piece of advice, it would be don't set yourself up for disappointment. I am not saying that you can't or you won't fall pregnant right away, but you need to give yourself time to heal emotionally and physcially.
Some women's bodies get right back into the swing of things very quick, others don't.
I am one of those women who's bodies didn't cooperate the way I had hoped. I had high hopes of being pregnant by now, and having a big belly on me by the time of our due date (late Feb 2008 ). That isn't going to happen , and I had a very hard time dealing with that emotionally, mainly because I had some unrealistic expectations. Don't make the same mistake I did. Allow yourself and your body time.

I agree with 2girls, After our lose I did want to have a baby right away but you need to give yourself time to grieve the baby lost, they deserve that much. I felt at first that I got pg too fast after losing our daughter but that's the way it is and now I'm just happy to have another chance BUT I'm still grieving our daughter very much. It's hard on you emotionally. Let your body heal, find some comfort, then decide. I'm so sorry you're going through this, I hope you're not alone and you have someone to lean on. take care

I am so sorry that you are going through this. When I lost my baby, 7 almost 8 months ago now, I couldn't imagine being pregnant again and risking it all over again. So I asked my doc for some birth control and he gave me the depo shot because I can't remember to take a pill and basically needed something they would remind me to do. But after getting the shot twice I decided that I do want another baby and I can go through it again and it is worth it....but now I can't get things to start back up. I hate waiting....my sister suggested that if af doesn't come back by the end of Jan I should go to the doc. I just want you to know that you're not alone in wanting it right away but sometimes things have to take time to give your body time to get back to normal. I hope you do get to have another baby and that your next baby is born healthy. Good luck!

so sorry you are going through this. it is very hard. as for your question, i think it just depends on the person. my doctor has told us after both miscarriages that we could start trying right away. sometimes a miscarriage can throw your body for a loop. for instance, after my first miscarriage i didnt ovulate for a couple of months, but i know people to get pregnant before they even get their first period. everybody is different. we are all here for you if you need to vent/talk things out/need a hug....

I'm currently 16 almost 17, and going through a miscarriage. It is very hard. I feel it was somehow my fault. it's been about a month now. The baby's father is locked up so it makes going through this even harder. My mom tries to help, ahving 3 miscarriages of her own after having me, but nothing seems to help. I love kids. I'm going to be a preschool teacher one day. I want another baby, but I don' know if i'm emotionally or physically ready. I just has to get that out

Hello and welcome. I am so sorry that you are going through this. One thing I can say is being a teen mom is not anything I would wish upon any person not in a commited relationship. It is hard...I had my first as a teen and can tell you that being a single mom is not easy. If you want to go to school to be a teacher you should do that first before having a child. You are young an have so much of life left to live. to you. I hope you surround youself with people that love you at this time.

I completley know what you are going through. We lost our baby (Madison) last month. Everything was going great. i was having ultrasounds every 2 weeks (I'm diabetic so I'm high risk) 14 week ultrasound was great, 16 week ultrasound no heartbeat. After tons of blood test I found out I also have a vitiaman B deficency and a blood clotting disorder on top of being 36. We ask my doctor when we could try again and he told us to start trying ASAP. as long as I was mentally ready.
Good luck
