Has anyone gotten pregnant right after D & C? How soon after?
I had a blight ovum this was my first miscarriage I was devastated. I had my DNC two weeks ago Jan 15. I've had two healthy pregnancies before. It was the hardest thing to go through. My DR said I can start trying a week after as long I wasn't bleeding. I took a pregnancy test yesterday and it was negative so I know my HCG went down. My boobs are very sore I don't understand since my HCG is at 0. Has anyone gotten pregnant right after their DNC.

Just posting to let you know I'm in your shoes. First pregnancy and had a D&C 1/20/15 after medication failed to remove all of the product. This was after I found out I had a blighted ovum as well. Sorry for your loss. I've heard so many mixed information on this topic from when the doctors say you can try again to how long it can take to get pregnant. Sorry I'm not much help but wanted to say sorry for your loss. Did you doctor give you any reason as to why you could try again so soon as my doctor said wait 2 cycles?

I didn't need to have a d&c after my miscarriage, but I had a similar problem. Even though my hcg was back to 0, I still had breast pain, nipple color changes, and my BBT was high. My doctor said those are more due to the progesterone and not hcg, which can still take awhile to get out of your system. I am still waiting to ovulate after my miscarriage, so I know I'm not pregnant again. I do know people who have gotten pregnant as soon as two weeks after miscarriage, but others that take months to get pregnant again. Hope this helps!

Thank you. I really thought I was going to be okay but I've been feeling so down, I guess because we were so happy. Trying to stay positive. Sorry for both of your losses. My OB Doctor told me that there has been no medical proven statistics that indicate that getting pregnant immediately following a miscarriage will cause any issues. My family dr told me to wait one cycle it was just for my mental health. We started TTC 7 days after D N C. Hoping to get pregnant as soon as possible. Good luck to you both.

That's great news wintermom! You're very lucky. I got my period on Feb 13 it was really heavy. But I think I ovulated when my man was out of town. So Ill try again this month but I'm nervous bc I want it so bad and I don't want to miss it... I don't do ovulation tests. I hope it works!
