Hi. Dont know what I want from this post. Maybe some hope?
I had a perfectly healthy pregnancy with my 13 year old son. Fell pregnant on the pill and clearly had no problems conceiving or carrying back then. I thought I was done with children until last year. I realised I wasn't getting any younger and maybe I did want another baby. We started trying for a baby in July last year and fell pregnant quickly. Unfortunately this ended in a miscarriage in October. We started trying again straight away and again I fell quickly. This pregnancy was ectopic and ruptured in January. I lost my right tube. We tried again and I got my bfp last week. This ended up being a chemical pregnancy. I just feel like I can't get anymore bad luck. I'm devastated. Has anyone been through anything similar and managed to get their bfp and carry it to term? Thank you for reading x

@Kerrie990 first I want to say I'm so sorry for all your losses its heartbreaking I know its horrible going through this i cant give you any answers but this is my pregnancys journey and what a specialist has said to me in the last 2 years I've had a baby with chromosome problems pregnancy ended at 25 weeks 5 days 2019 I was low risk but the specialist said it was extremely unlucky and the chances of it happening again is really low then in jan 2020 had a chemical at 5+5 weeks August 2020 eptopic pregnancy left tube treated with methotrexate at 6.4 weeks then jan2021 chemical pregnancy at 5 weeks 2 days asked my dr to refer me to the reccurent miscarriage clinc so I had all my tests done about 3 weeks ago they all came bk normal but still waiting for the blood clotting disorder one to come bk then a couple of days ago I've found out I'm pregnant again 4 weeks 5 days today so I'm hoping this one turns out ok , when I spoke to the specialist at the reccurent miscarriage clinic she said I have had just a streak of bad luck she said because I'm falling pregnant quikly I've still got a really high chance of a successful pregnancy ,and to keep trying and to lose some weight when not pregnant she has put me on 75mg asprin as a precaution from the day I got my positive test so I'm hoping this one is going to stick they also have booked me in for a 6 weeks scan to make sure everythings going ok then if there is a viable pregnancy they are starting me off on progesterone I think if I lose this one I'm going to go for ivf my partners sister in law had 6 early miscarriages and the 7th was a healthy baby girl so that has give me some hope

@Kerrie990 Hi there,

I know this is an old thread and hopefully the world is totally different for you now. But just to say I know this exact feeling I’m almost exactly a year behind you on each loss, Miscarriage Sept 21, ruptured Ectopic Jan 22 and Chemical April 22. Just wanted to say Hi & thanks for posting I guess, as I feel little less alone finding this ❤️

Hi @Kerrie990

Thank you so much for replying! Fantastic news, congratulations! I’ve been very close to giving up this weekend but this has really picked me up, so thank you! Can I be cheeky and ask did you do anything differently this time? I hope you have a smooth final 9 weeks, congratulations and thank you again.

@daffodilaster I stopped trying! I stopped stressing about OPKs and timings etc. I honestly believed it would never happen and I was driving myself mad and putting pressure on my relationship. Knew as soon as I found out i was pregnant that things would be ok this time. Can't explain why, it just felt different. Please don't give up hope. It just takes a little time 😊xx

@Kerrie990 I can completely understand the feeling it’s never going to happen, I’m definitely there. Everyone around you announcing theirs and wondering if it will ever be your turn. Amazing that you stoped trying (I wish I could but think I’d stress even more). Thanks so much lovely. X
