My cousin is only 22 but has been trying for children for a few years now, because she has been unable to fall pg she was allowed IVF anyway it was successful & she was carrying twins, this morning at 3.30am she went into labour & it could not be stopped, they tried to at least save one twin but she gave birth to both & they died

She is devastated & besides herself all she has ever wanted is a baby, her & her partner were over the moon, i feel so so sorry for her, life is just so cruel some times

My heart goes out to her... it is the worst feeling in the world..

We had problems conceiving aswell and then had our Baby boy at 24 weeks and he died the same day. Why is it the people who want it so much...seem to be the people that life is cruellest too. There are so many people that have child and don't want them and then the couples that do, struggle to get them... so unfair!!
