TTC After M/C
Are you trying to conceive after one or more miscarriages? How long did you (or will you) wait until TTC again?
Who or what has been helpful to you during your difficult time: faith, the support of your partner/friends/families (or did you find them unable to relate?), others who you now found out also m/c'd...

TTC After M/C
We lost our baby angel on Sept 11th 2009. I was 10 weeks and 5 days. It was one of the hardest things in my life that I have had to face/deal with it. Everyday is a new task at hand to deal with it! It makes me angry when people say, "well you can try again, or If it was ment to be!" then they turn there backs on you! They are so sentivite to the fact only for a second then forget the next. It has been really hard.
Thank God I was able to find some help in a book! It called " The Christmas Box Collection" by Richard Paul Evans. This book touched home on all the things that my husband and I faced. I suggst that all that have had a MC read it. It made me realize that yes it happened and it is real, as much as try to live and love our angel always. That my DH and I will always hold our Angel like no one else! I am not sure if I am still able to TTC but I have to! I have such a void that I am not sure if this is going to help but we have to try! Wish us luck and here baby dust for all ~*~*~*

Second miscarriage
My husband and I had our second miscarry at ten weeks on 12-29-10. Our first was 3 years ago. I just started aunt flo today after 35 days no D & C. I can get pregant but have not been able to carry past ten weeks. I will be 40 in approximate 5 months. So I have said that either I will be pregnant by then or I am getting me a convertible bmw z4 (happy birthday day to me). I am now focusing on preparing my body for another pregnancy by taking a folic supplement, progesterone and two natural supplements to make my uterus stronger. I have been advised not to try to conceive until 3 months have past so the vitamins can build up in my system. I pray for favor and restoration from God in 2010.

Bleeding after D&C
Hello everyone
I sadly MC last week at 10 weeks, we had to go for an emergency scan due to light bleeding, and the awful news was then given to us that our bean stopped growing just over 8 weeks... so had a D&C the next day (wednesday 6th Jan 09) my blood tests turned out to be resus negative.. so now I have the antiD injections for when we try again.
Reading your stories today has giving me so much hope for our next steps in life.....
Myself and hubby we just thinking "what will be will be" then we were lucky to full pg.. but now knowing how overjoyed we were, know we really want a little person, so when it didn't work out we were crushed!!
My body is already telling me I'm (O) which I read it a great sign, but know in my heart I have to hold fire for my body to get herself up and running.
I have a quetion.. how long after the D&C,did it take for the bleeding to stop?... and how long did it take for your 1st cycle to start?
Hugs to you all

TTC After M/C
Two painful m/c and no children.... :(
My husband and I have been TTC for about 4 years now. Very early on I had my first m/c. I started my period on exactly the right day I should have and it kept going and going and going. Ususally it lasts 4-5 days but at 8 days I was sooooo exhausted and started to worry that I had a serious medical problem. So on day 11 I saw my doctor and he tested me and told me that I was having a m/c. It was the last thing I had expected to hear, I had never even thought about the possiblity of that being why i had been bleeding so long. I was crushed! I climbed into my bed and cried for days and eventually ended up in the hospital because my cramping became so intense I thought I would die. I was very very dehydrated and had to stay off work for a few days. Then about a year later I just knew with everything inside me that I was pregnant so I went to the doctor and yahoo positive. I can't tell you how happy i was and how paranoid I was that it would happen again. Well about a week and a half later I had some cramp-like pain and ended up in the hospital thinking I was constipated (sorry). They did a blood test and yep I was having another m/c. I had to stay overnight at the hospital so that they could continue to do more bloodwork and confirm that the number was for sure dropping. They were they worst things that ever happened to me and the doctors say 'well at least we know you can concieve'! Well now I feel gunshy and really want a baby but so afraid that it will happen again and again. How much can one person take? Now two more years and nothing. This sucks.

TTC After M/C
Trying within days
I JUST got through my miscarriage. It was a frightening time for me. I thought I couldn't have children and went to the Dr. because my "period" was on day 18. We both (Dr. and I) thought it was cysts or hormonal. When the test came back positive- to say I was totally freaked out is an understatement. At this point (due to irregular cycles) I could have been up to sixteen weeks along. Luckily I was not. However, I still felt a deep loss. In a way, though, I feel lucky now. Now I know I can be a mother. My husband also found that he truly does want a child (he's not just OK with being childless anymore). I quit bleeding three days ago. I starting on vitamins and folic acid. I'm eating better and doing some exercise. His job is getting me in the mood. ;) Last night we had sex for the first time. We are ready and are letting my body and God guide this. Was I scared last night? YES. Would I trade jumping in to it with both feet for anything in the world? NO. This baby was not meant to be. My next will be. I have hope in a future that will bring the right blessing into my life. It is still tender to think of the "what if." I love that little twinkle, because I made it regardless of how small it was. But there is nothing that can be done to change that. I know that I can have a hand in the future. I will do my best to conceive and leave the rest up to my body and God.
