I couldn't find a thread dedicated to this, feel free to link me if there is one already 💕

Is anyone else TTC after loss? I am TTC after a 34 week loss in February due to placenta abruption. I have so many mixed emotions about TTC, the battle of I want my baby but it won't bring her back and the am I replacing her guilt.

I am just hoping to create a supportive thread with people who understand and going through the TTC Journey again 💕

I am so sorry for your loss. There is nothing I can say which is enough, except you are so incredibly strong.

I had a mmc at 18 weeks back in February and have just started ttc this month. I am feeling generally OK but getting quite stressed at the thought of the due date arriving which ie a few days before DD's birthday.

@NatalieSF i am so sorry to hear your story. I can only imagine a fraction of our grief and I sincerely hope you are being taken care of

We lost our baby at 22 weeks, it was a tfmr, and am finding much comfort in the prospect of trying again. Dont think anything other than a baby will replace the pain

Sending lots of hugs

Wow that is a huge loss and I cant say sorry heartfeltly enough, i hope you had someone taking care of your needs and gave you a lot of support, please be gentle with yourself. Your well in your rights to feel very confused and be in all your emotions. Your definitely not replacing her if you try again so please dont feel guilty about that.

I have had 8 miscarriages ranging from 8 to 12 weeks, 1 chemical pregnancy and we had a tfmr at 4months gestation, that one was the hardest loss and we wernt sure we would try again after that and I felt the same as you about the guilt of replacing our son and we already have other children so we wernt going to do anymore transfers but 3 months later we did do another transfer and we got our now 18month old little girl.
