Hi all, sorry if this is the wrong place - just wondered if a thread existed already [had a look but can only find old ones] - if so can someone direct me to it?
If not, does anybody else want a support thread?
We're having to undergo genetic testing before we try again, so would be good to have a space to talk :)

Just to add a little message of hope.
I had a TFMR in 2016 after a +vet Harmony for T21. The trauma put me off trying again. I decided I’d be happy with my lot of 2 beautiful boys. But this summer age 41 I became intensely broody again and fell pregnant very quickly. I’ve just received my Panorama results which were negative for all trisomys. My situation was made easier by fact that Trisomys are mostly sporadic not genetic although they are linked with age.
But I just wanted to share a story of a positive outcome post TFMR.
I’m sorry to hear of the losses on this thread and sincerely hope that you are all blessed with healthy babies very soon.

I am so sorry to hear of all of your losses

We had a TFMR earlier this year. I am still hugely struggling to come to terms with this and am dreading Christmas, thinking that I should have my newborn baby with me. We are trying again but it has not happened and I am feeling pretty hopeless at the moment. Whilst I would not wish what I have gone through on anyone, it is nice to know that I am not completely alone

I just wanted to say I’m now say watching my glorious little girl kick and try desperately to roll herself over as I type. There can be sunshine after the rain to everyone

I know this thread isn't posted on much but thought I'd chance it anyway.
We're having a tfmr Friday. We have to go in tomorrow for the injection.
I'm finding it really tough. I can feel him kicking and know tomorrow it will stop.
How the hell do you get through this?
Lots of love to you all xxx

Oh treacle. I’m so very sorry getting through it is just a question of putting one foot in front of the other. It’s without words to describe really. And honestly a bit of a blur in my memory I think I just detached from myself.
Im thinking of you

KTD27 thank you.
I've taken photos of our son with bump earlier and I'm just trying to enjoy the kicks tonight before the injection tomorrow which feels horrendous.
I have so much guilt.
