Wanting another child after dealing with a lost.?

Question

I had a miscarriage back in may of this year an I started taking birth control pills to help regulate my period. I would like to know when would be the best time to get off the pill in my situation an try to conceive again? If anyone can help me I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Answer 1

I think when you are feeling ready.  I have had two miscarriages and one was harder that the other so they were different on how soon to start trying again...  I had a very hard time emotionally with it and I also had to have a d&c with one and I had very bad periods after with lots of cramping sorry tmi.  I think just do it when you feel emotionally and physically ready.  I would at least wait 3 cycles (which you already have) just to let your body heal and get your hormones back to normal.  I am terribly sorry for your loss, I know it is a very hard time.  I still have a hard time seeing babies because I am still waiting for my baby.  Good luck!

Answer 2

First i am sorry for your loss. Physically you should wait about 3 months. Emotionally when you think you are ready. If you dont feel ready dont pressure yourself or stress your self out. Good luck

And to the @$$hole above, if you are going to be an insensitive jerk, dont bother answering questions like this willie green

Answer 3

Answer 4

I would give it a good three months.

I'm sorry about your loss, but at the same time I'm glad your looking forward.

Good luck.

Answer 5

Hi,

I hope you ignored the incredibly insensitive response you received to this question which has now rightly disappeared.

You are doing the right thing to look to the future and if you really feel ready to begin trying for another baby and have lots of support around you then go for it! It will be difficult for you because of your sad loss but don't let your past experience taint your pregnancy - enjoy it as much as you can. I wish you all the best in the future!

Answer 6

give your body some time to adjust but its up to you and its when you feel ready no one can really answer this question as no one knows your mental state but yourself some people copevery well haing another baby so close to a miscarriage others dont ...good luck  

Answer 7

Don't be dense. The loss of one child will bever be replaced with another child. Th living child will always be compare to the lost one, who will never meaqsure up. See your clegy before you place another child in your incometent, unbalanced care.

Answer 8

If you want another child I would go ahead and start trying.

Answer 9

sorry to hear about your loss, since it's been a few months it'd be ok to you to start trying to conceive again, since it can take a while to conceive again you could start getting off the pill now :) good luck! also you can find other women going through this and ask doctors questions online for free, try fertilityties.com
