Are you more likely to miscarry if you get pregnant straight after a miscarriage?

I am a 27 year old female. I want to know if you are more likely to miscarry if you get pregnant straight after a miscarriage?

Yes, you are, wait for one normal menstrual cycle and menses, then start trying again.

Hello, 

Yes, there are some studies that reveal an increased risk for miscarriage if you get pregnant within 3 months of a previous miscarriage. Obviously, this does not always happen, but it is the reason we recommend waiting 3 months to get pregnant after a miscarriage. 
I hope that this helps.
