Hi
Currently going through second misscarriage had one in November and now this one 2 days ago. Going to have surgical procedure tomorrow to remove remaining tissue both misscarriages have been emotionally hard but also physically I had to go into hospital in ambulance both times with too much blood loss, stressing that will have to have an operation tomorrow as never had a procedure.
I already have three wonderful children maybe this is a sign I shouldn't be having a 4th. 💔.
I cant understand why never had miscarriages before I'm 36 now could this be why? 😪

Firstly, how awful for you :( I’m so sorry.

I don’t think your age would have much to do with it? Fertility doesn’t automatically fall off a cliff when we reach 35+.
I think perhaps they could look at any potential underlying reasons. however, I was told that miscarriage rate is quite common - 1 in 4 pregnancies I think?

I am so sorry for your losses. It’s devastating.

I would say if you want more children, you still have chance. Plenty of ladies are having kids at this age and older too.
I’m wishing you all the best for tomorrow

I‘m really sorry for your losses. I’ve also suffered 2 back to back losses, the last in Feb. Managed to get recurrent mc testing and there doesn’t seem to be a reason. Sadly it’s sometimes just like that and it’s so common :( I’m still trying as I don’t have any living kids yet but it’s obviously a personal choice. That you’ve had extreme bleeding both times makes it even tougher, please make sure you question why that’s happening. Take care and sending strength to you 💕

I'm sorry to read about your miscarriages.
I just had my 3rd in a row and yesterday had a D&C to remove. The surgery was super straightforward and I can't believe how quick it was all over. I hope it goes ok for you today.
I have two children already and have no explanation as to why I'm struggling to have a 3rd baby.

@susie1984234 I'm so sorry this is happening to you really hope it happens for you soon. Sending lots of love ❤️

It's a personal decision. My partner and I decided that 3 would be our limit and 12 months trying in total. I had two miscarriages last year, the last one in December. I conceived again almost straight away and I'm now 26 weeks. I don't think I could have done more than 3 first trimesters in a short time period so this would have been our last attempt at TTC our second. I'm 37, I was offered testing after two losses through reoccurring miscarriage team but I was already pregnant again.

I'm so sorry for you losses, and the physical side of it as well.

I called it quits after my fourth miscarriage. I figured 2 miscarriages for each kid was too much for us. But everyone's situation is different. I honestly had no more energy to give to the emotional and physical pressure of it all.

7 years on from my last miscarriage and I feel totally at peace about the decision.
