When to try after miscarriage
I miscarried last week at 9 weeks 2 days. Baby only measured 6+2 and the sac only 5+4- so it was a pretty easy miscarriage. I switched doctors in the middle of all of this. The first doctor said I could being trying again immediately. My current doctor advised me to wait for 1 normal period. I emailed the clinic to verify which was preferable, and was told that it’s fine to start trying again immediately. A lot of the things I have read say that the main reason to wait is for dating purposes. I have irregular cycles anyway, so this doesn’t really help with dating, and I track ovulation.
My question is: would you choose to follow your current doctors suggestion, or would you go ahead and try right away as the 2 others said it was okay? I feel so conflicted.

I think I mentioned this before but I miscarried at 5 weeks 5 days naturally so I don’t know if that makes any kind of difference but I did get pregnant between my miscarriage and before my next cycle. I would maybe ask your Dr about taking progesterone and baby aspirin. My Dr said it helps to prevent miscarriage again. I am still taking it daily until my second trimester. Good luck! I’ll be watching for your updates!

Angela- I’m going with that as well. I’m only using OPKs this cycle, so I’m not trying as hard. Kind of relaxing a bit and just seeing what happens. Hoping it happens this cycle! I miss knowing that I’m growing a beautiful little person inside of me. My heart aches for the loss. But it still aches for all 4 of my little angel babies, so I’m very ready to start over and hopefully have a beautiful little baby to hold at the end of this next pregnancy. Your story sure give me some extra hope
