Hi all, don’t know what I’m trying to get from writing this, just maybe some support really or views from anyone experiencing something similar. Was about to start ttc no 2, have a 16 month old and am almost 35 - felt like the right time in terms of life, job etc and we don’t want a big age gap.
We’d just started trying before things really got serious with CV but I’ve just got AF this month and now feel like we’ve got a really tough decision about whether to continue. I’ve had 3 pregnancies, 2 ended in early MC and my DD was growth restricted so resulted in being consultant led, lots of CTG monitoring and scans etc resulting in a traumatic induction at 37 weeks (she was born at 5lb).
With this history I feel like it would be mad to carry on with the knowledge of what’s going on right now, NHS resources etc and hearing about what some pregnant women are experiencing in terms of their care right now. But I don’t know how long it could take. Perhaps it’s a case of waiting a few months and seeing how it all pans out. It’s just hard as I have other friends who haven’t had these sorts of complications who are getting pregnant or still planning to and I know we can’t really do the same.
I just feel so confused and sad. I know we are v lucky to have our DD and others are facing a much worse situation, but the feelings of loss of control about the future are still hard.
