Hi everyone, I’m just looking for some advice and hopefully some positive stories.
Today I found out that in my third pregnancy, the baby’s heart stopped beating at 8 weeks. I’m currently 9 weeks and 1 day, so they said it likely stopped around a week ago.
This is now my third miscarriage. My first miscarriage was very similar I went for my 9 week scan and there was no heartbeat. My second pregnancy made it to 12 weeks, but the baby had triploidy and fluid on the brain, and the heart had stopped beating then too.
Now this has happened again, and I’m starting to wonder if it could all be related to chromosome issues or if there could be another reason this keeps happening.
Has anyone been through something similar and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy afterwards? This has really taken a toll on my mental health. Hearing “there’s no heartbeat” for the third time has honestly broken me, and I’m struggling a lot right now.
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has experienced recurrent miscarriage and had a positive outcome, because at the moment I feel like I’m losing hope.
