Misscarriage and Trying to Conceive Again

I had a misscarriage six weeks before this last easter and we have been trying for another baby for probably about three months now. I have two other children that I conceived rather quickly, like in the first month that we tried. I really want another child and it just seems like since the misscarriage it is getting difficult to get pregnant again. I was wondering if anyone has had a misscarriage and then find it difficult to conceive again or how long it took to get pregnant again.

What can I do next?

I can relate somewhat to what you are going through. I have been trying to conceive for the past year and still nothing. My problem was that I was taking birth control and somewhere along the line I started having problems with my menstral cycle. I have two kids that I conceived rather quickly also. They are exactly 1 year and 2 weeks apart from each other. Now that I want another baby, well it is not happening. I have been taking fertility pills for the past 4 months and still nothing. I am still trying so if you get any respose of any help please let me know...and good luck conceiveing. Hope everything goes well.

Hey, girl, It's L. Beth! Such a small world, huh?!? I, of course, am interested in the responses you get from this, too. Russ and I are "ready" to start trying again, too, but I am scared to death that I will lose another baby. I don't want to go through that again. I wish you and Aaron the best of luck in the future. My doctor told me to relax and not to think about it when we are trying-- just enjoy it and it will happen! Give my boys hugs and kisses....LB

Hi, sorry about that. I had 1 misscarrage on March of 2005. I had no problem getting pregnant again I was expecting by May of that same month and now have a 7 mo baby. As well as my 3 year old boy. They say that strees and worries my be a part not being able to conceive. Don't thnik so much of what happend to you. Relax and think that you will soon have a wonderful baby. Good luck and hope next time we hear from you you tell us u are pregnant.

I too had a miscarriage a few years ago and it did take awhile for my body to get back into the swing of things before we finally conceived. I had 2 children previous to this one as well and now we have a beautiful 7 month old baby girl! So, don't worry it will happen!

Hi. My suggestions to you is, first, make sure you and hubby are eating right. Cut down on caffeine, no alcohol or tobacco. Then both of you take a yoga class and go for walks together and get most all of the stress out of your lives. Decreasing stress plays a very big part in conceiving! Good luck to you both!

A., I'm so sorry to hear of your miscarriage. My husband and I suffered a miscarriage in 2000. We tried again immediately after, I mean 4 weeks later we were trying...I got pregnant 6 weeks after our loss. It is dangerous for the baby to try that early, especially if you had a DNC afterward because of the scar tissue...which might be part of your problem. sometime scar tissue interferes. I'm not going to say "keep trying and it'll happen"...nobody can make that kind of promise. All I can say is keep trying, calm down, reduce your stress...enjoy the children you have and try to forget about it, that's usually when it happens. I'll pray that GOD has another baby in store for your family. GOD BLESS...

My cousin tried to have a baby for 13 years. Miscarriage after miscarriage. Well they decided to adopt. Once she adopted a 6 week old baby, she became pregnant. I believe this is because she was so determined before and she wanted it to bad that it wasn't coming. when the Lord finds it to be thebest time for this baby to arrive for you, it will. Just stop stressing it. The second she stopped stressing, she became pregnant. It was amazing!

I am so sorry, I really do understand.
I have had 3 miscarriages, my last one was the worst. I was two months along and didn't know it. It was a couple years ago and it took me a long time to be able to conceive again. But we finally did it!!! It was when I wasn't trying anymore that our little one surprised us. Try not to think about it, thats my best advice.
