We've been ttc #2 now for 34 months. I'm so extremely grateful for the little miracle I already have - he was born at 27 weeks and after being told at 21 weeks that he had minimal chance of survival he is now a happy and healthy nearly 4 year old. I know how very lucky I am, but I can't seem to shake my longing for a second child.
We had all the fertility tests after 2 years of trying with no luck, and everything was clear so diagnosed with unexplained secondary infertility. I then went on to have 4 early miscarriages (between 5-6 weeks) in 6 months early this year and was referred to early miscarriage clinic. They've done a number of blood tests and scans "and are delighted to tell me that all the tests are clear". So why do I now feel so helpless and hopeless?! They've offered me an early scan at 6 weeks if I fall pregnant again - I can't get to 6 weeks so what good is that?? My friends and family keep telling me it's a good thing it's clear, but if I don't know what's wrong, how can I fix it?! And if there's nothing wrong, why can't I stay pregnant?!
