I recently lost my baby due to chromosome abnormalities, I’m currently still grieving for this baby but due to my age want to start trying again soon. How long should I wait? Has anyone had a healthy baby after a Similar loss?

Hey, just to say I’m in a similar boat. Terminated due to fetal abnormality end of July and ready to try again. I don’t think you need to wait really. Age is not on my side either!

Mines only been a month so Still quite early on for me. I’ve read you can try straight away then others say to wait until you’ve had a couple of periods, it’s all confusing me. The biggest worry is having another baby with chromosome abnormalities it’s been so hard to deal with but obviously I won’t know until I try again. I just want to hear some positive stories.

Aww thank you welshsoph. Xx
I’m going to try within the next couple of months but I want to go into it stress free, passed the grieving process and make sure I’m well prepared. I’m nervous about being pregnant again but really miss it at the same time.

I was in your position a few months ago - we were told we could try again straight away. As it was I bled for six weeks post termination then we didn’t feel up to trying until I’d had a period. I was pregnant that month and am now 13 weeks and the baby doesn’t have the chromosomal issuesvthe first did. You’ll know what’s right for you. I found the second pregnancy stressful until we got the all clear, so ask yourself if you’re ready for that. I have also been pregnant for 7 out of the last 9 months which has been tough doing two first trimesters so close together. Sending you Flowers

Thank you for your reply Nightmanagerfan, congratulations on the new pregnancy xx
I’m currently awaiting my first period post tfmr, I want to make sure everything is back to normal before I start trying. I’m expecting the worrying because of what I’ve been through, I worried in my last pregnancy as I was expecting something to go wrong which it inevitably did. I don’t want to be complete stress head that’s why I’m giving myself some time to prepare. It’s comforting to hear you’re baby is healthy after having a tfmr. Good luck xx
