Hi, has anybody got pregnant straight after a missed miscarriage? Or have people tended to wait for a period before trying again?

Yes, I had a missed miscarriage on 14th Feb, passed everything naturally luckily and then ovulated on 5th March. Found out I was pregnant again last Saturday
They did tell me to wait for my first period but I am impatient and thought if it happens then it happens! 😂 also it’s not unsafe for you to wait for your next period, it just makes dating the next pregnancy a little harder however like I said I was tracking my ovulation anyway 🙂
thank you for sharing and huge congratulations!! Hope everything works out all ok for you! My pregnancy test is still showing a faint positive and it’s been 2 weeks. Hopefully I get a negative soon

I tried after my first cycle, my cycles were off at first so my timing was off at first, but the second month I got pregnant, I had a chemical pregnancy. That was in August, I'm still trying... But I know 2 other people who got pregnant right away after their miscarriages.

After my second miscarriage I tried again as soon as I ovulated (before the first period after) and didn’t get pregnant but did the following full cycle. I wasn’t able to try again right after my first or third miscarriages because I needed to wait for unrelated reasons

Between my first miscarriage back in July of last year to when I got my next positive pregnancy test was 7 months, last month. However, I'm currently going through another miscarriage currently so we will see how long it takes again.

I had my first MC and got pregnant with my second-born right after. Then I had an early MC, got pregnant immediately after and had a missed MC, had a period, then got pregnant after that. I’m almost out of the first trimester but it’s been unbelievably stressful knowing that the worst could happen at any moment and I wouldn’t find out for some time.

I had a d&c on Monday after having complications from miscarrying. I honestly have no idea when we’ll try again. The earliest we would is June just to give my body a break but a part of me is just too scared and we might wait till September or October after our baby’s due date.

I had a miscarriage August 2021, then got pregnant again Sept 2021- she is now 3 nearly 4- I didn't wait for a period. I also had a miscarriage last Jan/Feb (2025) which was slightly more traumatic and got pregnant again in the March after having a period in between. I now have an almost 4 month old x

I was told by the hospital to wait to get a negative test and for my period to return before trying again. I miscarried near the end of Jan last year, period returned in Feb, avoided March because I did not want a December due date, got pregnant again in April and found out in May.
