More fertile or less fertile after a miscarriage?

Hello, I'm sure this question has been asked numerous times.  I recently miscarried on 9/29/07.  And  I was told that you are more fertile after a miscarriage, due to all the hormones, and so on.  Is this really true?  I have been ttc ever since, and no luck. I guess I am just hoping to get pregnant right away.

I am so sorry to hear what happened. Lord knows i have been there.  Give your body and mind time to heal. After a miscarriage, its best to wait a fw cycles to build the lining of your uterus again. It has to be strong enough for the egg to implant. I have still not luck yet, but hope it will happen soon.  Keep taking your prenatals. They are good for you, and it gives you the vitamins you need to carry a healthy baby. Your time will come. Be strong and stay positive. I know it is hard. But you do need to heal. I am still recovering from my loss. I think about it every day. But in a way it makes me stronger. Everything happens for a reason. Lots and lots of baby dust to you.

Hello Everyone,

I'm so glad I came across this board. It gives me hope.
I found out I was 6wks pregnant on 1/2/08 after going to the doctor for sinus infection. It was a surprise because my husband and I have been trying for almost two yrs.  On 1/23/08 I lost the baby at 10 wks.  My doctor has said to wait at least one cycle, but its soo frustrating.  I am still taking the prenatals, as well as extra iron (I am anemic), vitamin c, multivitamin and baby aspirin.  I feel like a pharmacy but am willing to do anything to get pregnant again.  I keep waiting for AF to show up, but 4wks after my D&C it still has not knocked on my door.  I'm tempted to just start trying right away.

Thanks for listening!

Well, its going to be 6 months TTC, and nothing yet. Still have no clue as to why it hasnt happened yet. Is it stress, depressing, discouragement?  It could be all of those things. My husband tells me that because i am so stressed and so depressed it why it hasnt  happend yet.  My body knows that you are stressed, and that can prevent pregnancy. I know he is right, but it is hard not to think or even want it so bad. And every month i get my AF i cry, and cry.  When will i get over this?

i am 20 and in college and was NOT expecting to get pregnant so soon but my fiance and i said thast if it ever happened then we would be happy and wouldnt mind, it just wasnt planned. well i just had a miscarriage at 8 wks and found out about it friday. i am still discouraged by it and everytime i see babies and children with their parents i just want to cry. we are talking about actually trying now becasue we had our heart set out to this and all of the information you guys are giving out is really helping me out.
