MMC now 11 months TTC anyone else?

[aeastley93]

Hi,

I'm hoping to find other ladies to chat to! Long story and I've been on threads on here in the past.

I had a MMC in July 2019. We'd thought we were so lucky because I fell pregnant instantly for our 1st pregnancy.. how wrong we were. Finally got my first negative test September 5th 2019 after failed medical management first and then surgical management.

I'm only 27 and we're now moving into our 11th month of TTC and it's really getting me down. Pregnancies seem to be all around and I just feel like such a failure and miserable! I've had some counselling but it's very hard to be positive when everyone around you seems to have quick and healthy pregnancies.

My periods have been all over the place and I've even had a scan and the Radiographer mentioned that I was about to ovulate looking at my right ovary a few months ago and that my uterus all looked fine!

One good thing is that hubby has managed to get a sperm test next week through his military dr. At least we may know if he's ok or not.

Just feels crap 😕 anyone else?

Btw I haven't already got a child when I say 1st pregnancy i meant the one we miscarried

Did you conceive again lovely? Sorry I know this was a few years back now. But we are now on month 11 after a MMC and medical management. Seems everyone gets pregnant really soon after a MMC - so keep thinking something is wrong with me!

Hi Babydance255,

So after this I became pregnant again Sept 2020 and had a natural miscarriage at 6 weeks. The following year I decided enough was enough and we saw a consultant privately. She reviewed our medical history etc and said when I fell pregnant again she would prescribe me progesterone. I fell pregnant again February 2022 and used the progesterone to which I am happy to report I gave birth to our little girl November 2022 and she's now 7 months old and I still have to pinch myself.

All I can say is it's soo hard waiting. Can't believe it took nearly 3 years from our first pregnancy to our third and successful pregnancy. So you aren't alone in it taking a long time between pregnancies. Wishing you baby dust and perhaps if you have the means seek support privately as the NHS wasn't able to help me. I'm sure the progesterone is the only thing that kept my third pregnancy xx
