How soon after a chemical were you able to conceive a healthy pregnancy? Please tell me your story.

I’ve had four earlier losses, so definitely an outlier to the norm. I conceived my oldest on the cycle right after the second one. My second, about 3-4 cycles after one. I’ve always had issues but I think it got longer with age, I had a later loss with my third and then it took a lot longer to get another healthy pregnancy. So much is just luck.
It’s hard but to some degree it’s a numbers game once you’re older. There are a lot of genetically abnormal embryos that might turn out to be losses or just bfns ... but that doesn’t mean your sticky bfp isn’t waiting if you keep trying

Chemical in September, pregnant again in October. I'm due in June.

I got pregnant 5 times in 16 months across 8 cycles of TTC and one cycle off after an ectopic. The last one was good and was separated from loss #4 by one bfn cycle. Two of the four duds were known genetically abnormal -- so there's no way that waiting longer would have given a better outcome. I just plugged away it as quickly as possible since AMA related problems weren't going to improve by waiting.

I agree with the others that TTC is ultimately a numbers game. There's few things I enjoy less than first trimester, and it absolutely sucks to have to go through it (and the aftermath) repeatedly to get a viable pregnancy. I got viably pregnant the cycle after a chemical, which itself followed a later first tri loss and some BFNs.

I had a chemical at the end of November and then possibly another in January (lines on blue tests 10-12DPO then they went away) and then I got pregnant with DS in March. My cycles were also pretty long at this point. I was seeing an RE and doing clomid and femara and it was taking my ovaries forever make eggs. The cycles were more like 6 weeks until the one we were successful with, which was four.

I had a chemical in October but got pregnant again in November. I'm due in August. My friend though had two chemicals over the same of 5 months but finally got pregnant her 6th month. It's just a numbers game as it's a numbers game.

@CatchAFallingStar: I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you're able to feel at peace about it eventually.
I had a confirmed chemical in Sept while NTNP. I was pregnant again as of January but miscarried in Feb (6 weeks). Got my period in March and am now 7 weeks pregnant. So, I've been able to get pregnant fairly easily but staying pregnant has been the problem.
For me, I started feeling better with some time and distance. Having a (so far) healthy pregnancy has been healing as well.

@CatchAFallingStar: my first ivf transfer was a chemical. I was crushed at first largely because it had been 2+ years of trying but was able to refocus on next steps. It’s differnt but we had to wait a cycle in between before trying again. So essentially that was a period, I had one more, and then I transferred before the next. Luckily me, I have long cycles so it was actually a long time. For me it wasn’t different seeming than a normal period which are already heavy. Hugs - allow yourself space to grieve the loss and the idea of what could have been, and also know that hormones are a bitch and you may feel much better once you get back to neutral.
