I've just discovered I am 5.5 weeks pregnant.

In the last 2 years I have had 2 mcs and our dd2 was stillborn at term.

So I don't feel like I fit into the antenatal threads, and don't want to frighten anyone with my experiences.

Anyone else out there who needs a gentle thread?

Hello Mummy's :)
Just joined this website so i am new, i am not sure about any short codes for anything so i do apologise if i say something i should have abbreviated.
I recently lost my beautiful baby boy at 38+6. He was born asleep. We were told about 6 hours before his birth that there was no heartbeat. Something gave me the strength however, to continue with the labour and give birth to Joseph. Its been just over 2 weeks since we lost him, and my partner and I seem to be coping extremely well given the circumstance. We are currently in limbo waiting for PM test results to come back. My pregnancy was perfect, the heart was strong all the way through so we're anxious to know what may have caused the loss.
One of the main reasons for posting on here is to ask people who have had a similar experience to me? What care might i get during my next pregnancy?
Which brings me to my next point... i think i could possibly be pregnant again. I am waiting for blood test results from the doctors. The midwife told me that my body would be ready to conceive again at any point but it would just be a case of am i emotionally ready? Is it too soon? I am hoping there is someone out there that has or is experiencing something similar to myself. After everything that has happened, all we can think about is that we were so desperate to be parents for the first time, especially my partner. After such a great pregnancy we never expected this to happen and we have got our heart set on another baby. Ofcourse we will never forget our angel Joseph by any means. I dont really know how to feel about this situation. You all seem like a lovely bunch of ladies, i look forward to hearing your responses and i have every sympathy for you all who have to live with this nightmare every single day. It is so hard xxx
