TTC after miscarriage

[Anonymous]

I had a late first tri miscarriage this summer followed by a D & C. Have a healthy toddler; no problems conceiving before. Been trying now for over 5 months. Anyone else find it's really, really hard to conceive again post-miscarriage? Any tips or words of advice?

I totally understand how you feel. Unfortunately, I have had several miscarriages. After my first miscarriage, I had trouble conceiving and saw a fertility specialist. After about 6 months (and two failed IUIs), I finally conceived a healthy baby. After my second miscarriage, it only took me two months to conceive. So, it was kind of random for me. I did get one of those Clearblue fertility monitors which indicate your high and peak fertility days. Although some people on this board have not found success with the monitor, I have found it extremely useful at least to indicate that I am ovulating. Also, if you are a late ovulator like me, it gives you a better window than trying to guess on your own. So, it could be a matter of timing. Good luck and I hope you are successful!

I had a miscarriage almost a year ago and I'm still trying. I'm just about to start clomid. Good luck!

Are you ovulating/getting your period

We are! My periods are all over the place too--22 thru 28 day cycles. Am giving it 1 more month and seeing doctor. From what I gather I am either not ovulating or have too short a luteal phase.

Good luck. Maybe next time we go to Mexico well pick up some clomid...
