Hello, I am new to this site, and glad I found it. I have been disdraught for days. I can't seem to wrap my brain around the fact that I miscarried. History: I became pg in July after trying for 4 yrs. So you can guess I was estatic! Went to my Dr appt. last week (was 10 weeks). I was sent for an ultrasound because he couldn't find a heartbeat. The tech told me that she baby didn't have a heartbeat, and that it was 7 weeks old. So I had lost it 3 weeks earlier. I have an 11 yr.old, and she was born healthy. I had no problems with her. I know that God takes care of those babies at that early stage. I know it is too early to talk about getting pg again. But I was just wondering how soon is too soon? And I know the odds of having miscarriage is higher since I've had one. I am 38, and facing less yrs of waiting. Any advice???

Most women who have a single m/c go on to have a successful pg.  At your age, I would guess your dr will only ask you to wait 1 cycle before you are able to ttc, unless there is a specific problem they find in your baby that will  require you to wait longer.  If it is a molar pg, you'll have to wait a while....  Good luck to you, and I'm very sorry you have to experience this pain.
