I had an early loss when trying to conceive my dd #2 and we did not take a break. I got pg immediately and she is 7 now!! My doctor did not advise waiting (except for dating purposes). So glad we did not! :)

Most doctor's recommend waiting at least one cycle before trying so that your body has time to heal and your lining can build back up. That is what my OB recommended for me. Some even recommend 3 months. That being said there are women who have ovulated a week or two after m/c, conceived and went on to have happy, healthy babies. I truly believe it is whatever you are comfortable with and what your heart tells you. I believe if your body is not ready then it won't get pregnant. I m/c in March at 13 weeks and this is my first cycle post m/c. I was one of the few that did not ovulate immediately after m/c. I am on 6dpo now and in the TWW. I am hoping we have conceived again but we shall see what happens. I have heard and read that your body is definitely more fertile the first 3 months after m/c. I recommend giving yourself time to grieve, a little time for your body to heal and then start when you feel you are ready. Hugs to you my friend. I am truly sorry for your loss.

I am really sorry to hear about your loss. I too miscarried last week at about the same...about 5 weeks. I just stopped bleeding last night. I feel the exact same way! We are going back and forth on weather or not to start trying again right away. I really want to be pregnant again and it would be an awesome suprise as I should find out right around Father's Day. At the same time, I'm not sure if we'd be able to get as excited with it being so close to the miscarriage. Its a really hard decision. As for me, I'm really thinking that we will just go with the flow. I was concidering trying ovulation tests for this month...I've never used them before and thought it might help my poas syndrom :) Also, to keep me looking forward to something instead of focusing on being sad. Let me know if you ever want to talk! Good luck!

Thanks for the comments.. Iv thought about it so much and if i'm ok to try straight away then thats what we'll do.
I hate this whole situation.. eurgh.
