Late miscarriage

I had a late miscarriage at 20+4 almost 2 weeks ago. I feel bereft, lost and sad. I have 2 girls from a previous relationship but this baby (a little girl) was my partners first baby. We really want another baby but are terrified of a future pregnancy. I'm also worried about being able to get pregnant (I'm 41). How do I get through this feeling of loss and grief? How to I manage my anxiety about conception and future pregnancy?
I also feel guilty about TTC as i long for my baby girl but feel I'm running out of time due to my age.

I'm so sorry for your loss @bestrest That must have been, and will continue to be, so hard for you. Did they give any indication about the cause, that would give you a guide if you decide to try again? Is your partner supporting you? You need time to rest and begin to heal Flowers

Thank you for your reply. So far the Doctors and midwives think it was due to a hypercoiled cord and we were just unlucky.
My partner is very supportive and we are helping each other get through the shock and grief.
