TTC after Termination (TFMR) or 2nd trimester loss

Hello,

I'm wondering if there is anyone out there thinking of, or actively ttc after termination for medical reasons or miscarriage/2nd trimester loss?

I thought it might be nice to connect with other mums to be who might be feeling excited/anxious to ttc again and give each other support.

I'm on my first cycle post surgical termination at 16 weeks for Trisomy 9. It's my 2nd TFMR in 7 years, my first baby had Trisomy 13 in 2012.

I have 2 healthy girls and a new partner (well of 3 years). He has no biological children (he's 10 years younger than me) but we are very excited to have a child together.

I came off the implant in October and fell pregnant straight away. Everything was fine until 13 weeks when everything went wrong. The baby was very poorly and I had a surgical termination mid March. I bled for 2-3 weeks, ovulated and now I'm having my first bleed. I'd like to try this cycle as mentally I'm ok and physically recovering well. I'm taking COQ10, vitamin D and prenatal gummies. I'm 42 so I'm aware time is not on my side, however I feel hopeful for my rainbow baby. Looking forward to connecting with others. Xx
Thanks for reading.

I'm sorry to hear about your loses. How are you getting on? Hope you get some good news soon.
I'm 28 and my first son was stillborn 4 weeks ago at 32 weeks due to Pataus. I have my period again this week (really happy I'm getting to the point where I can try again but hormones on top of grief are so challenging) and I'm hoping for better news soon.
Are you going to have NIPT or anything during your next pregnancy?
