I am so scared of trying and failing again. I was nine weeks and first time pregnant.

I'm very sorry for your loss :(
This happened to me 4 months ago. I was 9 weeks too. My gynaecologist said that I should wait at least three months before trying again for emotional reasons, but that there was no reason why I couldn't conceive again right away. I tried last month with no luck, but will try again this month. I am very scared of losing again too, but it is very uncommon to miscarry two times in a row
I wish you the best!

You may have to wait a bit. Whether you miscarry spontaneously or have the tissue removed, you'll generally get your period again in four to six weeks.
Some practitioners say you can start trying to conceive again after this period, but others recommend that you wait until you've been through another menstrual cycle so that you have more time to recover physically and emotionally.
I miscarried at twelve weeks. I wasn't emotionally stable to try and conceive again, but once I was ready (six months later), I did and now I am four months pregnant!
Don't feel like a failure. A miscarriage is a very common thing, about 15 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage. Once you are ready, you will know.
Good luck!!

I miscarried at 7 weeks and had a D&C because my body didn't get rid of the dead fetus on its own. The D&C was about 2 weeks after the fetus died. My doctor told me to wait just one month before trying again. I did, but even on clomid I didn't ovulate (don't know why). We'll be trying again this month with twice the dosage of clomid. I'm very hopeful right now, but I know that as soon as I do get pregnant again I'll be paranoid at least through the first trimester about having another miscarriage. It will always be a possibility, and like you I'm afraid of failing again - I went into a pretty deep depression the first time. Honestly, there are times when I think I'll never have any babies. But usually I'm optimistic. It helps that my doctor is being very proactive, having me take all sorts of tests and blood tests to track my hormone levels (I have PCOS, which makes it harder to get pregnant and might raise the chances of miscarriage).

My heart breaks for you sweetie. I just suffered a stillbirth at 38 weeks pregnant. It was my first time too. We want to TTC right away, I too am absolutely terrified.
If you know having a baby is right for you then you should do it. I have to wait until my first postpartum period maybe even my second to start trying again. I am pretty sure miscarriage is different in waiting time, so you will have to check with your doctor.
Try not to be scared, I know easier said than done, but when you make it through your next pregnancy it will be so very worth it.
I can't wait to have a baby that I can actually hold in my arms everyday and I wish you the same happiness.
Take care, keep your head up and remember that there are plenty of people who understand.

You are supposed to wait 3 months after having a miscarriage before trying again. Many women have miscarriages and go on to have a baby afterwards. My friend miscarried her first pregnancy in October. She waited the 3 months and is now 15 weeks pregnant. I'm sure next time everyhting will be fine. Good luck.

I had a miscarriage last year in July. My doctor said that I should wait 3 months to TTC. I haven't gotten pregnant yet, but then again, I have only been trying since January.
You shouldn't get pregnant right after you have a miscarriage because you are putting yourself at risk of having another one. However, there are some women who get pregnant right away and go on to have healthy babies.
One of my friends had a baby in February and got pregnant 2 weeks after and had her third child in December of the same year.

I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks pregnant. The doctor told us to wait 1 normal cycle then we could start trying again. I've heard that some women are told to wait as long as 3 normal cycles. It ended up taking 12 months for me to get pregnant again.

I am sorry for you loss I also just had a miscarriage and it is one of the most horrible things you can go through. I was 7 weeks. Our doctor told us to wait for 2 cycles. He also told us that our chances of the pregnancy being just fine the next time was a lot higher than before so don't give up! I will be thinking of you while I am on my journey to motherhood also. Good luck and may lots of baby dust come your way!

You can can pregnant right away- ur capable, but it's best towait like 3 months or so in between, my mom had a miscarriage and "accidentally" got pregnant RIGHT after it, she was going to wait a few months until she tried again, and since she ended up pregnant right after ..she had another miscarriage

my friend had 4 miscarriages over a few years due to poor health. Fortunately, she got pregnant n a year's time after the last miscarriage. Now, she has two adorable children. You should work on your health first. eat healthily, exercise and seek medical advice. Don't give up but have wise planning too.
