Miscarriage after an ectopic pregnancy

[HeartbrokenM]

Hi everyone

Is there anyone out there that has had a miscarriage after an ectopic pregnancy?

I'm so scared I will never carry a baby full term

Thank you xx

I did, about 2 years ago, it was heartbreaking and if I never saw the inside of the maternity unit again it would have been too soon.
But on my third pregnancy I had the beautiful 8 week old that’s currently wriggling around on me refusing to go back to sleep. It was worth all the pain.
How are you doing? I’m sorry it’s happened to you.

I'm not very good, I'm terrified I will never be able to carry my own child 😭 can I ask, how long it took you to get pregnant again? Xx

Have you spoken to a doctor? To see if there’s something preventing you from carrying to term? I think it took about 4 cycles to get pregnant with my son when we decided to try again. I was 40 when I gave birth so time wasn’t on my side.

They just seem to think it's just bad luck, I've had tests and all they can find is pcos, which does make me higher risk 🥹I'm 36 next month and Im really panicking 😭 xx

My wife has just had her 3rd miscarriage at 14 weeks. We're absolutely devastated. We're now eligible for investigation as to why it keeps happening. But in all honesty, we are absolutely done with it all now and tempted not to even bother trying again as it's been this way for nearly 2 years. Good luck to you though and hopefully it all works for you 🤞

I’m sorry for your loss
did you have your tube removed? I had multiple miscarriages and then 2 ruptured ectopics losing both tubes but did have success with IVF x

Yes. I had an ectopic pregnancy with the loss of right fallopian tube, followed by 3 very early losses and then a second ectopic where thankfully the tube was saved. 7 months after the second ectopic I became successfully pregnant with DD1. After a couple more early losses over a gap of several years, I went on to have DS1 and DD2 (who I carried in my early 40's) in very quick succession. All my losses were also put down to bad luck.

I had an ectopic (March) then a miscarriage (July) then a healthy pregnancy (September) followed by another healthy pregnancy. Positive outcomes used to reassure me before I had my successful pregnancies so hopefully that does the same for you. Good luck 💐

Thank you so much for your comment, @neverwakeasleepingbaby im praying the same thing will happen for me now 😭😭

Hopefully it will!
Even though for me it was a brief time objectively, it was such a dark few months. It changed me irrevocably. I’m so sorry you’re having to go through it. No one should. I found it all so unfair and so unbelievably frustrating. But it’s all a distant memory for me now I have my two sons. I’m hoping you can get a similar outcome!! 🍀🍀🍀

So sorry for all the losses on this thread, and for what you’ve been through OP. Although I have one living child I’ve since had a miscarriage followed by ectopic in the last 9 months, just had surgery a couple of days ago. Feels like my brain is doing a lot of emotional cushioning just now and I’m really struggling to process all my thoughts and feelings around this loss. So sadly I can’t offer reassurance but I sincerely hope you get your rainbow baby one day.

Personally for me, while I may not be able to give my son a much longed-for brother or sister, I am so grateful that this potentially life-threatening situation was caught early and didn’t take me away from him.
