Baby's died at 7 weeks, should I try again?

[MyPeanut]

I'm 42 and found out yesterday that at 9 weeks pregnant my baby died at 7 weeks. I'm having another scan next week but it's more to reassure me not because they hold out any hope

I already have 2 wonderful girls from my first marriage (12 & 9), but my husband doesn't have any children. We'd really like one together.

I had a mc 2 years ago where the baby had again died at 7 weeks but didn't lose it until 15 weeks. I then had another mc at 16 weeks 6 months later. He was a little boy called Peanut.

After fertility tablets, we managed to get pregnant this year and now I'm losing it. We're both devastated and can't believe it could happen 3 times to us

We now don't know whether to try again. The chances of another mc are getting higher the older I get and I don't know if we could cope again after what's happening to us now

Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks

my sister went through similar ordeals, and it turns out she had sticky blood... have you tried taking daily aspirin? i had 81mg tabs 1 each day and nearly 20w now.. worth trying or talkin to your doc about xx

Had tests after 2nd mc and I didn't have it. Hopefully they'll test again after scan next week

Hi it depends how much you can cope with the loss if it happens again. As you know fertility declines rapidly after 43 so if you are going to try again, now is the time! I'm 42 and love another - but I have 3 already : o (. If I was going to try, I'd prob try until 43 and then give up. But that is just me. Sorry for your loss though - devastating. I hope it works out next time round if you try again.

No advice but so sorry for your losses.

So sorry for your loss

In the "body and soul" section there is a miscarriage section, there's some lovely ladies there who can give excellent advice - I found a lot of help there when I had my MMC. You may get more help there than in the pregnancy section :)
