Hey everyone,

I'm not really sure the purpose of this post, I just feel speaking to ladies who have experienced the same may help me.

I've had 2 miscarriages in the last 2 years and I find it very hard to deal with my emotions at times, every day think about things, I think about the what ifs - which is normal, but then my head goes into a spiral....i think ill never be able to carry. I start thinking I will run out of time to have babies even though I am only 25 yrs old - some days I am more than able to cope with my thoughts but other days it can send me a bit insane and I find myself randomly thinking and just crying 🥺. I get a horrible jealous feeling seeing others falling pregnant, envy seeing mums and there babies- i shouldn't be like this? Does anyone else get like this also? I think sometimes I am the only one feeling this way...does it get better?

I have an amazing partner who has been my absolute rock who I can and do talk to about everything which is fab as I never feel like i am going through anything alone. Does anyone else feel how I feel? And what are your ways of stopping your head going into that horrible overthinking mode 😶? I'm an overthinker at the best of times anyway.

Hi, I can totally relate to how you feel I’m an over thinker too! It wasn’t until I was in my early 30s and had given up (first miscarriage at 25) that I finally had a successful pregnancy. Babies arrive in their own time, as frustrating as that is! Really sorry for your losses and the advice I can give is look after yourself, keep fit and healthy, get out in the fresh air regularly, eat organic where u can and avoid any unnecessary nasties in cosmetics, cleaning products etc. Find interests to distract you from the whole ‘trying‘ rigmarole, and don’t symptom spot because early pregnancy symptoms can be indistinguishable from PMS annoyingly.
I used progesterone cream and took Agnus Castus through most of my pregnancy and I think this helped maintain it, particularly in the early stages. Also avoided caffeine like the plague.
Wishing you every success with your next pregnancy (although if you are unfortunate enough to have a third miscarriage, I believe you can then access specialist medical support. Ask your GP).

Hi op im 31 and have two boys already before i had my ds's i had two miscarriages then went on to have them. And since January 2019 ive had 4 miscarriages. The 4th one just happened last week. Ive been to a recurrent miscarriage clinic and taken medicine they prescribed but it didnt help. Sorry for putting such a downer on your post op but just to let you know i know how you feel. The 4th miscarriage has really floored me though... I cant help but think theres something wrong me... Praying for you and wishing you luck take care xx
