Getting Pregnant After a Miscarriage

First off let me say how sorry I am for your loss. As a mother of three who has also experienced two miscarriages in the past, I understand how devastating that can be both physically as well as emotionally. A lot of things are probably going through your mind as to why this happened as well as will I ever be able to carry a child to full term? Especially if this is not the only time you've miscarried! Getting pregnant after a miscarriage is what we will be discussing in this article. First off, you need to understand that most miscarriages occur when the unborn baby has fatal genetic problems that are usually unrelated to the mother. In other words, it is not your fault! Don't blame yourself for what Mother Nature has concluded. It is important to give yourself time to heal both emotionally as well as physically before trying again. It is recommended by most health care providers to give yourself at least 6 months to recover before getting pregnant after a miscarriage. If a woman's body has not had the adequate time to recover and regain its strength, she faces an increased risk of a repeat miscarriage. And because her body has undergone this trauma, getting pregnant after a miscarriage may take longer than expected. Deciding on getting pregnant after a miscarriage is a decision that only you and your partner can make. You'll know in time when you're ready.

Again, before getting pregnant after a miscarriage, you may want to consider one thing. Ask your health professional to run tests to check for diabetes, thyroid diseases or maybe even hormonal imbalances. 

One of the most common reasons for early miscarriage is inadequate progesterone production. Believe it or not, this is also a very easy problem to correct once properly diagnosed. Chinese medicine has known for many years that using treatments for kidney Yang or Spleen Qi deficiency can also help to enhance the woman's ability to carry a fetus to full term. Herbs have been used to help improve progesterone levels in women so that they were able to carry their babies to full term. 

You may also consider finding pre-made herbal formulas for the prevention of miscarriages helpful. You can find them at most Chinese pharmacies and herbal clinics. Preventing a miscarriage takes a two-fold approach: preparing the body before conception and treating any deficiencies once conception occurs.
