"I wanted to share a story about my amazing wife, hoping it brings some encouragement to you guys . We have four wonderful kids—two boys and two girls. Before our youngest, we experienced the heartbreak of a miscarriage at six weeks. Afterward, over the course of just 18 months, we faced four more losses: one at six weeks and three at twelve weeks, each requiring hospital visits and procedures.
Though we hadn't planned on a fifth child, the initial loss ignited a desire to keep trying. Each time, the twelve-week scan revealed the baby's heart had stopped just a day or two before, a pain many of you I know will understand.On our journey we both underwent blood tests, but they revealed nothing, which we felt futile since we already had four children. My wife tried Aspirin alone but that didn't help. We were scheduled for a specialist womb scan, but we conceived before it could happen. My wife even considered ending the pregnancy early, overwhelmed by the repeated operations physical and emotional toll.
On this fifth attempt, my wife insisted on progesterone, inspired by others' positive experiences. She took it until 20 weeks, along with low-dose of aspirin until 30 weeks. Now, I'm thrilled to share that our healthy baby girl was born just hours ago at 39 weeks weighing 7 pounds 6 ounces 👶👩🍼We truly believe the progesterone made the difference and wish we had tried it sooner."
I always said when our girl arrived I’d write a post so I hope this gives hope to someone xxx
