Need reassurance after 2 miscarriages

[Waitingforarainbow87]

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone has been through a similar thing. I fell pregnant last April after TTC for 2 years. Unfortunately, this ended in a MMC at 6 weeks but we didn't find out till a 9 week scan. It then took another 7 months of TTC to fall pregnant again. I am now going through my second MC at 5 weeks. I'm starting to lose hope that this will ever happen and we will have a successful pregnancy. I have a DS who is 11 from a previous relationship but my DH has no biological children and I feel so guilty that it is not happening for us and I don't understand why. I'm also not sure if I can go through this again.

Hi there. Really sorry to hear about what you've been going through. I had a completely trouble free first pregnancy and then had four miscarriages when tying for our second. I was referred to the recurrent miscarriage clinic at Liverpool Women's hospital and they found out I had phospholipid syndrome (a clotting issue with my blood) so next time I got pregnant I injected heparin (a blood thinner) and my beautiful second boy was born. He is now 7 and the most gorgeous child ever. I often thing that If I hadn't had the miscarriages I wouldnt have had HIM specifically. I have No specific advise but hope that story of hope gives you hope.

Don’t lose hope. I had 2 back to back MC last year, took a few months for my body to be back to normal but I’m now in my third trimester. Give yourself and body time to grieve and heal. It will happen.

@nowanotherone thank you and sorry about your MC. It just feels so hard at the minute. I keep reading that the doctors won't do any tests till after 3 MC. Which seems so unfair considering they could do them now and prevent it from happening again. Feel like I'm in limbo

Hi there, I had two mc, then my third pregnancy is currently two years old and currently stealing my breakfast off me. No words of advice but don’t give up xx

Never lose hope that you will get your much wanted baby.

Our 2nd child followed 2 mc's, our 3rd followed 1 mc and current (6th) one follows 2 mc's too (18+2wk atm). I've had several chemical pregnancies along the way too. Like you I struggled with the heartbreak but I knew my body could carry babies to term so just kept trying.

Hey hun, please don’t lose hope or doubt yourself! Im so sorry you’ve had to experience this! I went through something a little similar, I already have a 2 almost 3 year old son who I had absolutely no complications whatsoever then 2 years after having him we decided to try for our 2nd I fell pregnant in the summer and lost baby at 10 weeks we was heartbroken I didn’t know how to deal with a miscarriage, luckily I had amazing support and we got through it, I then fell pregnant again and found out at my 12 week scan that baby’s heart had stopped beating and resulted in another miscarriage I was so broken at this point and almost gave up, the nurse told me that in order for them to do tests i have to have had up to 3 miscarriages ( which didn’t sit that well with me) it made me think like I have to go through that again before you can find out what’s up 😭 honestly at this point I was almost giving up hope and told myself maybe I’m only meant to have 1 child! Late December I fell pregnant again but I really didn’t know how to take it, I wanted to be happy but I was so nervous! But I’m now into my 4th month and baby’s doing absolutely marvellous, nobody can explain why miscarriages happen sometimes it just wasn’t meant to be! But that doesn’t mean you’ll never have another baby!

Don’t lose hope, you’re a strong lady & I have all the hope that everything will work out for you ✨ I’ll throw all my good vibes your way xx

So sorry to hear this. I also had 2 miscarriages but am now watching my 13 month old make a MASSIVE mess with her breakfast. Your DH should be able to get checked without you having had 3 miscarriages - my GP told me to get my DH to make an appointment after 2. You could also try taking low dose (75mg) aspirin - do check that your GP is happy for you to do this but it might be worth a try. Good luck.

Hi I have 3 kids and in total had 6 pregnancies. I know it's hard. Had 2 miscarriages, then my eldest, then my middle daughter, another miscarriage and then my youngest. I

I had a very similar story - missed miscarriage (anembryonic) diagnosed at a 9 week private scan, then a 5 week miscarriage about 4-5 months later. We conceived again about 2 months after that and I'm now 21 weeks, feeling the baby kicking right now, and all is hopefully well. I know it's so tough, that constant thought that it might never happen for you.
