Hi ladies! I turned 40 in May and am shortly due to start ttc my second child (again) .. DS is two, he was conceived immediately when I was 37 and I was lucky enough to enjoy a textbook pregnancy. Last month DH and I decided to actively try for a second child. We were aware of the gloomy statistics and anticipated it taking a long time so were amazed and delighted when again I conceived first go. Naively I envisaged a problem-free pregnancy like last time and was more excited than cautious, but sadly I miscarried at 5 weeks which has really knocked me for six 
. I never wanted to become obsessed with having second child (hubby and I always said if it happened then fantastic but if not, we were already blessed to have our little boy), however the loss of this baby has hit hard and I feel desperate to conceive again. Partly because I want that wonderful, exciting feeling of being pregnant back, and partly because the miscarriage has brought home the fact that I am running out of time (and good eggs)! It has certainly lent a sense of urgency to the situation and we are keen to try again as soon as possible. As much as I’d like to believe I’m very fertile based on getting pregnant so quickly in the past, I cannot assume this is the case .. I am still hopeful it will happen again though, my main concern is chromosomally abnormal eggs as I am aware this is what causes the majority of miscarriages (especially over the age of 40). If I am fortunate enough to conceive again, I’m scared that I’ll be too paranoid about another miscarriage to relax and enjoy the pregnancy. That said, I realise that I may have to go through this ordeal a few times before we hit upon the ‘golden egg’ .. Would love to find others to share this journey with 
. Oh and if anyone can recommend any supplements to improve egg health, I am all ears! x
