They usually advise that you wait until you have had a normal period before trying again after having a d&c. Also not to have sex until the bleeding has stopped.
The main reason behind waiting for one normal period after d&c is because it is a surgical procedure and invasive so you are more open to infection.

Hope this helps

Its been 3weeks since i have had a missed miscarriage,me and my partner have decided to start trying again straight away.We have had sex several times before this but last night i had the most awful abdominal pain after.I have never known a pain like this before can anyone help has the same happened to you?

Thanks katie xx

Hey Katie,

I had a medical termination on the 14th aug (17wks) and delivered on the 16th. I didn't recover (i.e stop bleeding) for a further two weeks and it was very painfull bd (after the bleeding had stopped lol) until my af. Since then I have been fine but on monday night I had what seems to be what you had terrible pain in my abdominal area, put it down to my endrometriosis as I used to have similar pain before i fell pregnant but maybe not. This is my second month ttc so hopefully won't experience this for too much longer...fingers crossed.

Hey i had a mc on 9th of August and it was a very natural easy (if you get one) mc, i was due for a scan at 10am on the 10th but at 6.30am, i had passed the baby, i came out of the hospital on the 10th and had sex on the 11th, 12th and 13th. On the 11th it was sore but i just put it to the back of my mind and enjoyed it, 12th it was a wee bit sore but on the 13th the pain had gone. Thats not really why i was replying just really wanted to say good luck with trying again and hope you fall pregnant again quickly like me now 11 weeks pregnant, so heres alot of hope for you. take care

but dont tell him your trying again cuz they can get really arsey just tell him it hurts. ive been generally ok after all my miscarriages but on one i had to have a d n c and they are so roughthat it was a couple of months before the pain stopped but my last mscg was in august i was 6 weeks and it just happened and 3 weeks later i found out i was pregnant again be warned tho the epau staff hed a moan at me over the dating cuz of the mscg saying thats why we tell you to wait! and aparently your ovarys can get confused and both produce a egg on my 6 week scan i had 2 sacs and thats what she said so scan tomorrow will tell me if its the one i ordered or if i get a free one too. he he good luck. and its your body dont be bossed around.

Did you have a d&c or did you opt for the natural option? I know after my first miscarraige it was week before I felt able to start trying again because I still felt very sensitive internally. On the second I was physically back to normal after 3 days.

I think you would be wise to go to see your doctor, just to be sure that everyting is back to normal. It's important not to ignore these things hun, your body is trying to tell you something.

I hope everything is ok.

love
