Please share your stories of second baby after miscarriage

[Kinsters]

I am really lucky to have one DD. Before her I had one missed miscarriage and two or three chemicals. We started trying for no. 2 and I got pregnant pretty quickly but unfortunately it was another missed miscarriage. Not a huge surprise given how many losses I had before although I'd kind of hoped that having my daughter would have sort of reset everything.

Did anyone else have multiple miscarriages before each successful pregnancy? I'm really hoping I don't have to go through this again.

I'm sorry for your loses. It is heartbreaking.

I had fertility issues before DD, she was the result of 3 rounds of IVF.
When DD was 18 months I got pregnant naturally but sadly MC at 6 weeks, then got pregnant again but MC at 8 weeks, and again a few months later but lost twins just before my 12 week scan.

I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant with Ds and so far all going well. They couldn't find a cause for my previous fertility issues or 2 of my MC's ( my twins were tested and were found to have a chromosome issue).

The only thing I did differently for this pregnancy was take aspirin 75mg from ovulation and progesterone from my GP from 6-12 weeks. My GP would only prescribe it after advice from my hospital after my 3rd MC but aspirin I just bought from the chemist.

Look after yourself X x

I had a missed miscarriage followed by a baby and then another miscarriage followed by a baby.
I sort of wonder if my body needs to be kickstarted into being able to carry successfully but I do have two healthy children now.

Quail15 sorry for your losses too, that sounds so tough. Aspirin from ovulation isn't something I've heard of but will definitely look into. Thanks.

loveacupoftea18 I hope that's the case for me too! Could do with bypassing all the chemicals this time though at least they aren't tough on the body.

I had a miscarriage, DD1, miscarriage and then DD2. DD2 was one of a twin but her twin stopped developing very early on - this is very common.

and unmumsnetty hugs to you. Its crap and no words on here will make it better. But we women are remarkably resilient, take time to cry, mourn, heal and hopefully there will be another baby in your near future.

I conceived dd the first month of trying so it came as a huge shock when my second pregnancy ended in miscarriage - looking back I am sure I was unbearably smug.

3 very long and miserable years and multiple miscarriages later we conceived ds. I have never forgotten the trauma of some of the experiences from those 3 years but when I look at ds I can't really bring myself to regret them. He is such an awesome little dude and was so worth the wait .
