Due date today

[chasingtherainbow1]

Hi everyone.

So I'm 32 and TTC our first baby. We fell pregnant in our first cycle but unfortunately it was an early loss/chemical at about 5 weeks (on my birthday 😒). We then fell pregnant again without a period in between and had a mmc at 9 weeks but the baby didn't make it past 6 weeks.

Today is our first due date and it's hit harder than I thought. Just wondering if anyone has any success stories after multiple miscarriages to try ease the pain today.

Hey I don't have a success story, but also didn't want to read and run.

I'm 30, and have been TTC for the last year. I had two miscarriages within the last 12 months. I had a scan on my 30th birthday where we saw a heart beat but were told it's 50:50...

It eventually died on the 12th of June, which was also my due date for my other miscarriage. So I know how you're feeling.

It's utter crap, and I am so sorry you're feeling like this.

The positives are though, that you're just as likely as everyone else to have a full term pregnancy next time. Even after 7+ miscarriages the stats say that next time you conceive you're more than 50% likely to have a full term baby.

There are so many people on these pages who've had two miscarriages and gone on to have a healthy happy baby next time.

Just know you're not alone ❤️

@SunDance21 thanks for the reply. I'm sorry to hear about your miscarriages too. It's such a lonely and depressing time isn't it.

Yeah I guess you're right about the odds on the next one being ok. I think I'm just more stressed out atm because it seems that we can't get pregnant again. Although we haven't been trying the last month and this month as we're having nk cells biopsy's. I think I need to accept that it's not going to happen the first month trying every time.

Thanks again, your reply has really helped ❤️

It really is, but just know you're not alone. There are unfortunately so many of us going through this awful time.

I know how you feel. My last miscarriage was June and it's so depressing getting to Christmas without a baby or pregnancy. But I had NK test which were in August and for the first part of my treatment I needed to be double vaccinated, so I had to wait for that (I'd waited to get my vaccine because of my pregnancy). So it feels like forever since we've even tried.

I had NK tests in August, but through bloods not the biopsy. It felt good to feel like I was going forward and it means in any future pregnancy I will get scans throughout the first trimester and progesterone from conception which I find reassuring.

There is a group of lady's on here who are going through NK cell testing -
Immune/NK cells - pred thread 28 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/conception/4290124-immune-nk-cells-pred-thread-28
There are lots of people on there currently pregnant following treatment.

You're absolutely not alone. I'm so so sorry you're going through all of this. It's an absolutely devastating hand to have been dealt
