Second miscarriage

Hi everyone.

Just a bit of background about me

I have 2 sons. From my previous relationship.

Me and my partner have decided we want to try for a baby. He has a daughter too. But we're at a point now in our relationship we'd like 1 of our own. We caught in the month of June 2019 but sadly I ended up with a missed miscarriage which I finally bled out at 9 weeks even though the fetus had stopped at 4 or 5.

I caught again this year, last month in March, so so happy. Went for an early scan at 6 weeks. No heartbeat but reassured to go back at 8. Which was today, I've just left there and been told the same has happened again. Got to wait a week to see if it happens naturally or go back in a week to take a tablet so help things progress.

Just looking for some support really. Not sure if I've posted in the right area. I'm just worried we're not compatible and any dreams of a family together feels crushed right now and 2 miscarriages in a row alarms me.

Thank you.

This exact situation happened to me. DH didn’t have any children but I had three to previous marriage. When we TTC together I had two missed miscarriages in a row, I’d never had a miscarriage before so we started to think something was wrong with him or we were incompatible in some way. We did have a healthy DS after the second miscarriage though so don’t give up just yet Smile. I had a chemical pregnancy last year but am now 25 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby so I think it’s just luck of the draw a lot of the time.

I’m so sorry for your losses. Missed miscarriages are particularly nasty and cruel Flowers.

Umnoway.

Thank you for replying. Did it take you long after your losses to have a healthy baby? It took me 7 momths from my 1st loss and worried it'll take a long or longer time again. Just want to be happily pregnant with a healthy baby.x
