Bless you! I went through a miscarriage at six weeks a few years ago, after a bad car accident. The biggest obstacle is mental, followed by making sure you are getting enough rest and are relatively stress free.
I would advise waiting a while so you can properly greive the loss of your child. Don't hurry or rush to replace her. You have every right to feel grief and anger and please don't let anyone rush you to become pregnant again.
Make sure that you have an examination by your ob/gyn or midwife before trying to conceive again. Mine advised waiting at least three cycles before attempting it again. I am not a very fertile myrtle though so it took a few years before I was able to conceive and carry a pregnancy to term.
I was told by my midwife that most likely my body was rejecting pregnancies because of the stess of my job and crazy hours. When we did conceive we tracked it back to the day I quit my job to stay home with our 5 year old son.
My heart goes out to you, and I wish you the best. No one really feels it like someone who has gone through it. Even though my husband is one of the best, he never had the same connection to our baby that I did. It helped me so much to reach out to others who had gone through the same situation.

I'm very sorry thats happened to you. I "miscarried" at about six or seven weeks. When we went in to hear the babys heartbeat, there wasn't one. We kept waiting for my body to realize things didnt work out, but it took until febuary, and this all started in november for a d&c to be done. All in all my babys heart didn't develope and no one had a good explaination for why it didn't. I was told to wait six months to try again and I just couldn't. I waited 4 years. I think the hardest part for me besides the actual miscarriage was everything I missed out on I guess. We didn't know the sex of the baby so me and my fiance named her Devonny. We wanted to believe she was a girl. And even though we have a son now, every year on mothers/fathers day...and a million other days, I take a second or two to think about her and what she would be like now. So I guess the biggest challenge for me was just moving on, not forgetting her but trying my best to be a good mother to my son.

i had a miscarriage at the end of october, ive had one period since then and now im late...so i recently asked a question on here (u should check out the answers) "are the chances of getting pregnant after a miscarriage higher?" and most people said that yes u are more fertile in the few months/ cycles following a miscarriage...i guess its kinda like how women are more fertile right after giving birth...i hope this helps...good luck and i know how u feel...hope everything works out for u

Im sorry to hear that. I know how you feel I had a m/c Sept of 05 then we really were not trying to get pregnant at all. Then we started and I got pregnant Oct of 06 and lost it 2 weeks before Christmas. I still have not gotten my period yet, but as so as 3 months past we are going to start trying again. I wish you all the luck. And remember dont give up, you will get pregnant again. It might take a year it might take a few months. Good luck!

The doctor advised me to wait at least one period cycle cause that reduced the risk of another pregnancy and gives you time to heal. I miscarried 3 weeks ago with no d and c.
But as long as bleeding has stoped and you are ready then go for it. It can take 6 weeks or more to ovulate but some women do earlier.
Believe it or not but you are more fertile up to 3 cycles after miscarriage.
Im so sorry for your loss.
