I had a D&C last July the baby dies at 9wks but I didnt found out until a week later. I had the procedure done and it took between 6-7wks for my period to return. I was also very worried about them maybe making me infertile but everything went well. I fell pregnant November I was told to wait 3 cycles before trying and I am now 27wks pregnant. I am so sorry for your loss and wish you all the best in the future.
