ttc after recent mc.....

[AngryBeaver]

Trying to concieve for the 7th time.
Have 3 living children, and then it all went pear shaped

I had a mmc at 14 weeks. We were devastated.

We agreed to wait 6 months and got pg straight away.

Then we found out after many weeks of anxiety, and tests that our little girl had chromosonal abnormalities, and we had to say goodbye to her

We then got pregnant around 5 weeks after that. And lost that baby around 6 weeks.
The mc lasted a very long time, nearly 6 weeks.

Since then we have been trying to get pg. With no luck.

This is my 3 rd period since the last mc and I was so depressed when it happened. We have always concieved really quickly. So I just feel that something is wrong, now.

I am desperate for a baby.

But feel like I am broken inside

Anyone any advice or experience?

Hi there,
I dont really have any advice, but just wanted to say i am in a similar sort of boat, so you arent alone.
We have a gorgeous 5yr old DD, before her i had a mmc at around 8 weeks, then we had a little boy who sadly had a terminal illness and died last year when he was 2 :( and then i got pg again but tests showed that pregnancy carried the same terminal disorder so we chose not to continue with the pregnancy, and now i have just had a chemical pregnancy.
So its tough isnt it. All this trying and getting nowhere. I am desperate for a baby too and starting to think it just isnt going to happen. I am so truly grateful every minute of every day for my miracle girl, but she is so fab that i would do anything to have another like her! But maybe its not meant to be.
I am sure you will fall pg again soon and wish you more luck this time round. Do you use the cbfm or ov sticks? I find them really helpful

I'm having a similar problem but without any dc yet. 3 mmc at 9 weeks, and the last one was tested to have a random chromosome abnormality. Doctors just say 'there should be no problem, try again'. Don't accept what they say. I'm going to see my doctor to see what there is available - it could be something as simple as having a swab to check there's no infection causing the baby to miscarry. Don't let the doctor fob you off with 'it's normal, everyone miscarries a couple of times'. It might happen a lot, but it's not normal, and it's happened enough to you to warrant finding an answer!!

Don't have experience but wanted to say so sorry xx
Have you read about or followed SMEP before (sperm meets egg plan)?

Unfortunately it can't stop any chromosomal defects but it was designed for ladies who've mc, to become pregnant again quicker, although anyone can follow it.
I wish you all the luck in the world x

maybeoneday I'm so sorry to hear about your little boy. And your subsequent struggles.

tallyra I can really relate to what you are going through as well.

It is incredibly fdifficult isn't it?
I hope one day we will all have what we want so very badly. Fingers crossed for us xx

dondon I haven't heard of that, but thanks, I'll google it x
