TTC with recurrent miscarriages

Just looking for others in a similar situation to myself as I feel a bit lonely on this journey.

A bit about me -
TTC for my first baby for coming up to 2 years
3 missed miscarriages all found at 10 or 12 weeks
1st loss - no idea why
2nd loss - partial molar
3rd loss - this was only 2 weeks ago so waiting on genetic testing

I’m already under the recurrent miscarriage clinic & will have another appt once genetic testing comes back. Already had tests for sticky blood, thyroid etc. And was on progesterone.

I’m not actively TTC at the moment as we’re waiting for the test results before trying again. But feel I have no one to talk to anymore about how hard this journey to becoming a mum is, and if it will ever happen for me. Everyone around me is moving forwards while I feel left behind.

It’s the toughest journey I’ve ever been on and not many understand. I want to just go to sleep and wake up when I have a healthy baby.

1x missed miscarriage
1x chemical pregnancy
1x blighted ovum
1x TFMR at 16 weeks

currently just had my 4th surgical management for retained products and now scared about scar tissue as I’ve had so many procedures. Awaiting a follow up hysteroscopy to check and also been referred to genetics from my TFMR, desperate to ttc again but aware it might take a while as I need to get the all clear.

Whilst no-one can say what will happen for you, I wanted to give you a bit of hope.
I had 3 x miscarriages, the first two were prior to 12 weeks, but the middle one was borderline stillborn, as she died at 18.5 weeks gestation.

I had everything against me, no previous children, older mum, bicornuate uterus, PCOS, needed clomid to ovulate.
It was 4 long years & I had every test all of which came back normal. I had given up hope.

My fourth pregnancy was really tough & I expected a further loss…however, it stuck & now my beloved 14 year old DS is sitting at the end of the sofa!

Recurrent miscarriage is a living nightmare & the scars remain. My heart goes out to you. Stay hopeful!
I am sure others who are going through the same thing will join your thread - I just wanted to wish you every bit of luck!
