Struggling with miscarriages

To whoever’s reading this I just need a bit of a rant and to get it all off my chest because I’m feeling quite low currently.
I’m only 19, but my partner and I live together and have been settled down for a while so we decided that in June that’s just been, a few weeks after coming off our holiday we’d try and conceive...even if nothing happened we just wanted to have a go as we felt ready.
I was still on the pill as we were going on holiday as I didn’t want a period but strangely started spotting the second we go abroad, which she never happened before, and to cut a long story short the spitting turned into terrible clots and heavy bleeding, and it turned out I was 7 weeks pregnant which is didnt know, and had experienced a miscarriage. We were distraught as this happened the second day of our holiday, but knew that as I was on the pill and we hadn’t tried to get pregnant at that time, that there was nothing we could of done really.
Then in July we finally decided to start trying after everything we’d just experienced. I remember my partner and I going around Asda one evening and he mentioned how we’d been trying for a whole month (now in August) and still nothing.
Weirdly, the next day I randomly did my first test and guess what! Positive! We were so excited and told all our close family straight away, and although they were shocked as were young (partner is 23 though) they were still so happy for us. But then, when I was turning 9 weeks I suddenly started spitting but thought nothing of it cause lots of people experience it early on, but as the day went on it got heavier and heavier and I knew I had to phone my midwife, who directed me to the maternity ward at the hospital and yes, I had miscarried again.
It’s so annoying how we don’t know why this happened, anyone had anything similar happen to them??

Hiya, I don't really have an answer for you but I was 12 weeks and the baby measured at 9 weeks with no heartbeat, had a natural mmc nearly 2 months ago now, I am 17 just about to turn 18, I stopped the pill about a month before I found out I was pregnant and I'm not sure if that was what may have caused the miscarriage or not, I hope you're okay, you are not alone in this, sorry for your loss ThanksThanks
