Hi, I am new to this but feel I need some help. I'm 38 have 1 healthy daughter nearly 4 years. I have had 1 miscarriage May 2013 8 weeks, termination for t21 at 16 weeks December 2013 and just this week suffered a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks from which harmony test and cvs initial results showed t21 again. Consultants have told me that this is just severe bad luck! I really want another baby but don't know if I can go through all this again. Anyone with similar experience please help
Thank you

I don't have any experience with this but I can imagine it's very hard to put yourself through that again and letting yourself want another baby when your worried how things will end up. The fact that doctors are saying it's bad luck is in your favour, I think if you really want another you have to keep trying of there is no medical reason for this to happen. You've had one healthy baby and I'm sure you will have another, i'm just sorry you've had to go through this. My mum had many miscarriages in between me and my brothers and then went on to have my younger brother at 36 with no major issues.


Good luck
