This is kind of a long story but il try and make it quick, I had a 2nd trimester miscarriage when I was just 15, a little girl, it broke my heart and according to doctors it also broke my womb, I was told after id never concieve again, a few years later I met my now husband, after a year he suggested ttc, he already knew what had happened but we went to doctors and they said we had only a very very small chance but if I ate the right foods and took folic acid ect it might work and it did and I lost that one aswell, I was told to give up, if I fell pregnant again id loose it and maybe even myself but I couldn't give up I had to give it one last try and 4 months later we were back at the hospital being told id suffered another miscarriage and had to go back the next day for scan to check the gestation but in the scan we saw that tiny little flicker on the screen that gave us hope, our little boys heart beat, in time a healthy gorgeous boy was born at 8lb4, but I wasn't so healthy and nearly died shortly after giving birth, although I came out of danger I spent the next year really poorly back and forward to the hospital and told I was completely infertile so my boy would never have a sibling, when my son was 16 months old I had a pre-op assessment for an op due the next week which showed I was pregnant I couldn't understand it because despite being 'infertile' I had the implant for menstrual irregularity and used condoms aswell but some how I was and then I was told again id miscarried and again they were wrong I had an awful pregnancy and even worse birth when my second boy was born 7lb 12oz, now I've been told that I'm fighting to not fall pregnant I'm extremely fertile to the point that if its going to happen nothing but steralisation will stop it happening, but if it does it does and if it doesn't that's fine aswell I've gone from believing il never have kids to having 2 gorgeous boys I'd do almost anything for, the point is don't give up so easy, doctors are only human they can make mistakes and be wrong like the rest of us, they don't always know best
