I HAD to wait 3 months because I had to get an MMR immunization. I WANTED to try again right away, and HATED waiting, but I knew it was the best thing for future pregnancies that I be immune to rubella.

I didn't have an early loss. I lost Rivi at 24W, and I'm STILL not ready! LOL! I think that, in my case, I NEVER would have been ready. Some women here have said that you'll just know when it's time to try again. I never got that feeling.

I'm not emotionally ready to try again. I've had 2 losses this year. After my first loss, all I wanted to do was cry!!! However, I never lost hope and I don't ever want to lose hope about TTC. DH and I were discussing this last night. He's ready to try again. I hope I can catch up with him soon!

(((hugs))) See you on the karma thread!

I just recently went through a m/c as well, and I am hoping to be to the point of wanting to try again soon. I know you said that you are waiting to miscarry right now, and I went through that kind of wait for 3 weeks also. I hated the waiting part! I don't know if your doctors have put you on any medication or suggested any herbs to take to help the m/c along, but if they haven't, I strongly suggest asking about either option. I took herbs to help my m/c come after we found out that the baby had stopped developing, and I don't know if I ever would have m/c naturally if I hadn't had the herbs. I hope your wait is over shortly, and that the healing (physical and emotional) is accompanied with peace from God. {{hugs}}

I have been ready to get back on the horse so to speak within a week of miscarrying each time. That doesn't mean that I'll get pg that month, but I wouldn't want to waste a month I guess.


For me, a m/c just makes me even more determined to have a healthy baby.

I am ready to try again. I want to be a mom. I feel like I have waited long enough for this to happen and don't want to put it off. I am going in to see the Dr in a week to discuss what is next. Last time we talked he said we are going to do the same clomid and Repronex shots cycle. I wonder if my wanting to TTC will diminish a bit after I get started doing the cycle again. It is so time consuming and draining. At this point I am wanting to get the ball rolling. I hope it doesn't change. Every day that passes is one day longer that I don't have a baby to hold nine months from now.

I am sorry that you have so many questions. I can't answer them but give you a {{HUG}} and know that someone is praying for you.

Well although i will say there IS hope...i can honestly say that when i lost my girls it didnt seem like it at the time!! I was an emotional mess...took me 5 months to go back to work, and when i look back on my posts written during that time i sound like a completely different person! Also til i went back to work i didnt even have insurance coverage so the choice was taken out of my hands. I'd say i was physically ready alot earlier then emotionally ready...i had aimee and dana in feb and i'd say by june i was seriously 'thinking' of ttcing again but couldnt start anything til september...dh was worried about my age and seeing me dissapointed again (thats not the right word...devestated maybe) so i would say thats what i call the 'limbo stage'...ready to go but tied to a tree unable to move...thats when the ttc after a loss thread came in handy. When i think of it me and sheri and clarissa and others were all on it together...now look!! But i have to say it was my last go at the rodeo...if it didnt work then that was it for me...so i really put alot of effort into researching and forming a gameplan...i read and asked questions and prepared to do whatever it took (drove my doctors CRAZY ) and my whole existance revolved around having a successful pregnancy...that meant no working, no income...no leaving my house!!! Though supportive my friends and family thought i was nuts, my dh was scared out of his mind and my kids lost their mom and gained a human couch potato...it was a huge sacrifice for my family and absolute obsession on my part but so worth it...not easy...but i wouldnt have it anyother way.

So, now youre prepared!! And its true...when the time is right you just know. My biggest hurdle was the guilt...feeling like i was replacing the girls i lost with another baby...sort of like trivializing their place in my life...that was hard. I asked their help...prayed they'd pick me out a baby soul and i can say i honestly belive Logan is here because of them. Logans due date was august 8 (08/08) My twin girls were born on the 8th (08 and 08) Coincidence??? Dont think so

Good luck!!!

Angelbear~ I'm so sorry for your loss. I had 2 blighted ovums, one in June 2003 and another in September 2003 (waitied a month in between injectable cycles per RE advice) I went thru all the testing and did not want to try again until I had some clue *why*. I don't know what i would have done if they didn't find anything, honestly, but they did see a LPD and increased my p4, which was successful for us. Supposedly the bo is not that common, but I sure see it a lot on these boards. I know my RE suspected it was something to do with poor implantation, but seems that my p4 dropped 3 days after O'ing and they just couldn't keep going without it. Best of luck to you and many hugs, jennifer

I am very sorry for your loss. I m/c in July and began trying again at the end of August. I was ready. This is a personal decision. You must decide for yourself. ((((HUGS))))
