To ask for a handhold I feel so alone

I'm due to have a 6/7 week scan tomorrow after multiple miscarriages (double figures) and I've got period like cramps and bleeding.

I've been bleeding on and off for 2 weeks, no clots.

I feel so alone and I just want to cancel my scan in the morning. Time and time again I've sat in that waiting area, I've had to listen to the "I'm sorry" words, I've had to sit in the family room with a useless leaflet about miscarriage and a box of tissues.

I'm not religious but I could really do with some positive thoughts being put out there for me tonight, I'm not sure I can endure another loss 😢

My little ones are now 21,19 and 15 - 3 out of 8 pregnancies that made it - it goes so fat!

Hi MN Aunties!

Tilly is almost 6 months and the light of our lives. She is a happy, content, giggly baby who loves the teletubbies theme tune, laughs at doing "horsey horsey" on our laps, fascinated by our dog and laughs if he brings her a toy. She loves mirrors and anything sparkly (like her mama 😉). We went to Portugal in September and she slept both plane journeys! She is a joy and I can't quite believe just how much I love her. She is a daddy's girl through and through and beams at him when he comes home from work and picks her up for a cuddle.

Here are some new photos ☺️
