TTC after miscarriage

Valerie
My husband and I found out that I had a MMC at 6w5d when I was 8 weeks along. I miscarried naturally two weeks ago. The bleeding stopped after a few days and I have read conflicting information about when to try again. My OB said that since I miscarried naturally, there is no reason I shouldn't be able to try again right away and to just count my miscarriage as a period. He said that he's a firm believer that my body would not let me get pregnant again if it wasn't ready. 
I was just wondering what others have experienced with this sort of thing? All we want is to be parents.
