Hi,
Thanks for the query.

Yes, now you can plan pregnancy as it is already six months over after the miscarriage.
By this time all systems like hormonal, blood hemoglobin levels, uterus etc. might have returned to normal state.
Usually first trimester miscarriages will occur due to chromosomal abnormalities, defective implantation etc. But these will not usually recur in next pregnancy.
So you track your ovulation in this menstrual cycle and plan unprotected intercourse around that period.
If you cross your expected date of periods, wait for 4 to 5 days and go for pregnancy test.
If the test comes positive consult gynecologist and continue the pregnancy with regular antenatal checkups and ultrasound examinations.
Start folic acid supplementation from now-onwards.
Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer your follow up queries. If you are satisfied with all my answer, please rate the answer after closing the discussion.
Take care.
