I'm almost 8 months out, and it hasn't been true for me. I O and have good timing with BDing, so I have no idea what the issue is.

@drea101: I had heard this as well, & hoped this would be the case, but having just finished 2 cycles post mc without a BFP, I feel like whatever "advantage" I might have had if that even is remotely true, is likely lost by now. Just hoping to not waste too much more time & certainly not experience another loss once we do get our BFP. Wishing you the best of luck in healing physically, mentally & emotionally, and getting your BFP as soon as you can.

@drea101: I'm so sorry for your loss.

I did read that some women are more prepped to be pregnant following a loss, but nothing with hard facts or studies, just anecdotal. I got pregnant with my son 3 months after I miscarried.

I had a weird cycle that seemed anovulatory right after my miscarriage, then had a pretty normal for me one, then got pregnant with my son. So I felt like I was kinda off at first but it didn't take a long time after. I'm very sorry for your loss but I think you are right. It took a little while for me to feel completely confident in my next pregnancy but over time that really took away all the pain and sadness. Plus if I had had a child three months earlier, my son wouldn't be here and now I have him in my life forever. That makes it easy to be at peace but I don't forget the pain so I feel for you.

My dr said your body can release extra eggs. I stopped ovulating after my first one, though.

@drea101: I had to wait two months after mine, but I was really far along and had to deliver. It took us 6 months after that to get pregnant again.

Sorry for your lost but I'm not sure if it's true or a myth but I think I read somewhere that it was a myth, but I have heard and known so many ladies including my self to get pregnant after a mc. I had a mc in late march/ early April last year and wind up pregnant the following cycle which was 6 weeks later and now my son is 5 1/2 months so I wish you luck and hope you are successful very soon

I have read, and was told, that following a D&C you are more fertile for 6 months. Something about cleaning you out, in a way. I don't know if this is actually true or not.
