TTC after loss

Hi everyone,

I've never posted before but hoping someone out there can give some hope.

I lost my DS2 last year. It was a very high risk pregnancy and things went from bad to worse. I found out at 12 weeks I had antibodies within my blood. They must have formed at some point during pregnancy or delivery of DS1. I was lead to be believe all was fine even after a number of large jumps in my antibody levels. I was due to have a CS at 38 weeks. I had an emergency CS with DS1 so thought an elective would be the best option. However one week before my section date I found myself in hospital with reduce movements and I was off the theatre that day where I had my baby boy.

He was born very sick, he only only lived a matter of hours before his weak body gave up.

I want nothing more than another baby. Not to replace DS2 but I have empty arms and I want DS1 to have a living sibling.

I've been trying TTC for a number of mouths but since my cycles returned I knew something wasn't right. After a lot of going back and forth to the GP and begging for a gynae appointment I got referred to gynae and sent for a mri.

I have been diagnosed with a c section scar defect/ niche. The nhs seem to dismiss there even a thing but after reading many other stories I'm worried about risk of miscarriage/ secondary infertility. Im currently looking into a repair. It also looks as if I've developed endometriosis or adenomyosis during or after my secondary pregnancy.

I know my story is very unique (not in a good way) but wondering if anyone has experience of TTC after loss, TTC with a c section defect/ niche or adenomyosis and antibodies during pregnancy with a successful outcome.

I feel a bit hopeless but can give up on the hope of another pregnancy and baby 🥺

Thanks
