Ttc after mc - TW haemorrhage/very traumatised

Hi,
Is anyone else ttc after a mc where they haemorrhaged? This happened to me last year when I had a mmc at 11 weeks, and almost died as I lost so much blood before they got me to resuss and then I had emergency surgery and blood transfusions.

I took a long time to feel able to try to get pregnant again but was told the chance of it happening again if I miscarried again was no higher than for anyone else.

Sadly I found out last week at 7 weeks that the baby had stopped growing at 5 weeks. I thought because it was a bit earlier it might be more like a normal period. But yesterday I ended up in hospital again with the same scenario, massive blood loss etc. I didn't get to the same point as last year because I managed to get to hospital and be seen quickly enough, but it was still very scary.

I can't find any stories of people continuing to try to conceive after this. I know people do carry on trying after all sorts of awful things have happened, after stillbirth or much later losses than mine. I just feel I'm putting my life at risk each time. I wondered if anyone else has been through this. I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to post and hope I haven't said anything wrong (I'm ND and feel very anxious about posting). Thanks so much for reading this.

I'm so so sorry, what an awful traumatic thing to go through twice. I've got no experience of this, but just wanted to bump this back up for you so someone who has might see it

Thanks so much for replying
. I wasn't sure if this was the best place to post it, maybe I should have posted in the miscarriage board.
