Getting Pregnant After Miscarriage Posted: 01-15-06 20:36pm
Hi,
i had a miscarriage exactly 3 weeks ago
and the bleeding stopped last week, and 2
days later we started having sex
normally.
Now,the problem is that last night the
condom split and now im scared that im
pregnant again,i mean I do want a baby but
I wanted to wait atleast 2 months before
trying again.
Does anyone know anything about this,or if
its posible even though I didnt have a
period yet and if I was really pregnant
would it cause any problems that I
concieved so early??
Thanks.

I had a miscarriage on xmas day of 2001.
The doctors told me, that for my emotional
wellbeing I should wait about 6 months to
try again. It really had nothing to do
with medical reasons. But more so I
could have time to grieve the loss before
becoming pregnant again.
I'm surprised you were comfortable enough
to have sex so early.
The possibility of you getting pregnant
again is definitely there. It matters
not whether you've had a period. It
shouldn't cause any problems that you
conceived so short of a time after a
miscarriage. It actually happens quite
often. I know people that have conceived
3 weeks after actually giving birth!!!

Docs told me to wait till bleeding stops
and your period comes on so they can get a
rough date when we do try again and makes
it easier. But its best really to let
your body go back to how it was before
trying again as its dangerous. Am just
waiting for my period but am currently on
tablets due to miscarriage back in dec
05'.
What about morning after pill or is that
too late now?

i dont know how safe it is, but I do know
I was pregnant 9 times in 5 years. I
carried 3 to term and one to 18, 19 weeks.
(baby was born alive, but hospital says
they have not the resources to care for it
there--so I guess it just died--idk)
I did not ever have any medical concerns,
and never was told why. I was pregnant
every 2 months for quite a few of these
pregnancy's. Because your body is very
fertile after miscarriage, and after
birth. Dr's never told me anything
about waiting to become pregnant again.
And I was not using birth control very
often. I wanted 3 children, and I
finally had the third child on the 9th
pregnancy.

When I lost my baby, the doctor told me to
have protected sex (condoms or pull- out
method) until I had two normal periods.
Even though the pull- out method isnt
usually advised for long term birth
control she said it was fine for a couple
of months. I asked her whay wait tow
months? What happens if I were to get
pregnant before that? She said that if
you get pregnant soonerthere is just
higher chance of misscariage. I didnt
exactly follow that %100 but I didnt get
pregnant either. Actually a normal
fertile couple trying to concieve only has
aproximatley a %25 chance of conceiving
each cycle-even if they have sex every
day, and during ovulation.
