Recurrent Miscarriages and Broken relationship.

I have a beautiful healthy 6year old and I love her so so much. I've also had 4 recurrent miscarriages. I want nothing more than to grow my family and have a sibling for my girly.

However I am single, my relationship with my daughters dad broken down due to many reasons. So a year ago I made the choice to leave him.

Today I'm here at 31 thinking will it ever happen for me? Someone said to me what are you waiting for don't you know women have an expiry date. (Put me in panic mode)

Feeling sad, does anyone have successful stories after a similar situation?

Whoever said that was an arsehole.

We don’t know what will happen in our futures, but you do know that you’ll never be as twatty as them.

so sorry x

😡😡😡 makes me irate when people say shit like this. Like you can just nip down to the supermarket and pick up a partner. (Bet it was a bloke who said that or a much older woman). Ridiculous. Don't socialize with that idiot.

Hello OP
I'm very sorry for your losses. I was in a slightly similar situation in that after the birth of my eldest, whilst we were trying for our second, I had four MCs too.
It was only after trying two or three different medications that one worked and it was discovered I had a type of hormone problem that prevented me making a pregnancy hormone. (No idea if it just happened after my first born or whether she was just a lucky one.)

The single thing which held me together was the knowledge that at least I already had a perfect, happy and healthy child which really made the pain lesser I think, for me.

Have you been referred to a recurrent miscarriage clinic or any extra help?

Are you considering IVF, or donor sperm? Are you actively planning on keeping trying? I had my littlest at 39 and you've got YEEEAAAAARRS before you need to worry.

I hope the person who said this to you was unaware of your struggles.

Wishing you the best luck and sending positive thoughts. x

@DontBuyANewMumCashmere

I've had genetic testing and tissue samples taken and everything came back normal. I've also improved my lifestyle in terms of health, hopefully that helps.

I'm not actively trying because I don't have a partner currently, I just got myself in a bit of a panic after the comment that was made.

I have looked into IVF and sperm donors , it's something I would definitely consider if needs be.
