__Lavender- how long were you trying to get pregnant before the loss (or should I say.. not NOT trying to get pregnant)?? Also, are you over 35?? (if you don't mind me asking)... if not, then I would definitely NOT take clomid. You should only take it if its been over a year of actual trying to conceive OR 6 months if you are over 35. Yet, since you were just pregnant then its obvious you CAN get pregnant (not throwing that as Allie was just saying, but just for drug purposes)..... So, you may want to let your body heal and go from there. Maybe even have test set up to see whats going on. Like day 3 of your AF, day 7 and day 16 to see if ovulation occurred. TOO many doctors prescribe clomid out like its candy before they even test to see if they even need it. There are so many side effects that can actually make it worse for trying. My friend developed ovarian cancer from it is not trying to get IVF (invetro fertilization) done just because of what the drug did to her. It wasn't a problem with ovulation.. it was actually her tube for the problem she couldn't get pregnant. So her ovaries got over stimulated. Its kinda like the last straw to opt to go do that.. not just jumping at it just because we want baby "NOW" lol.. I'm sure it will happen in now time. I was also in the same boat as you. When I lost my last one at 12 weeks, I was in the hospital having the D&C surgery done while my sister in law was in the hospital giving birth. Really crazy and it killed really bad. I didn't go to their room that day, but I did the next as hard as it was. My brother said whats wrong and I told him things didn't look good with my baby and he made a comment saying, "Ah, shut up! you know everything is fine" I felt like slapping him. Granted he didn't know I just had surgery, but he still shouldn't have said that. Its not a joke to say the baby didn't make it.
