TTC after 2nd trimester loss

We just lost our sweet boy Elijah at 15 weeks gestation almost 3 weeks ago. I ended up in the hospital for almost a week on IV antibiotics and a week more of oral antibiotics to kick an infection I got from the miscarriage. Still dealing with some issues from that, but that’s another story! I have two older children who were perfect, healthy, full term pregnancies. This was our first boy and first loss. Just curious how long after a loss did you wait to try and conceive again, and how did you battle the anxiety that comes with getting pregnant again after a loss? Losing him was unexplainable as to why it happened, so I’m terrified of losing another. I see a maternal fetal medicine dr soon to ask more questions and such, but wanted some input from other moms who may have gone through similar situations ❤️

I’m so sorry

So sorry for your lost. Lost my little one at 13 weeks, a missed miscarriage in May. Had a D/C and carried debris 5 months after it so I had to undergo another procedure in October. When I met with my OB she said that you can wait 1 period and then start TTC again. Now pregnant with my rainbow baby 16 weeks (we were very lucky coz it didn't take us long). Everything is going well so far but I still feel anxious and scared that the rug is going to be pulled from under me. I wish you the best in your journey. 🥰
