Reassurance or reality

Hi all.

first time poster and full of emotions right now.
I (32)f have two children a 12 year old and a 6 year old from a previous relationship. Never did I think I would have or want kids again but fast forward and I met the love of my life and we are recently engaged.

we suffered a chemical pregnancy back in October.
we found out a few days after getting engaged that we were pregnant, cue the happiness and excitement and tears and nerves.
everything was looking so good compared to the last time, really strong pregnancy tests, never even made it to the digital weeks indicator the first time round and we made it from 1-2 and then 2-3, had mild to strong symptoms, sore boobs, nausea, funny taste in mouth and food aversions and cravings.

we went for an early scan at 6.5 weeks because anxiety after the loss got the better of me. The sonograper could only see a sac measuring 5.74mm. She said we could be early as my cycle after the loss went from 27 days to 32 days. So we thought maybe off by a few days.
we had another scan today were we would be 7 weeks by lmp and again empty sac that is now 10mm.

we have been referred to the hospital for next week to the EPU to make a plan which I guess is management.

I have no cramping, no bleeding, no spotting.

I don’t really know if I’m looking for reassurance or reality. I think I’ve accepted this is what it is again even though it hurts so bad.
im scared to try again for a baby, has anyone had healthy babies after losses ?
