TTC After a Loss

New to the board, 3 losses ttc

Hey all,

 I have had 3 losses in the past 5 years. My husband and I had an ectopic pregnancy 7 months ago. The first 2 were m/c the heart stopped developing. I had a D&C each time, bc they wouldnt come out on their own. I had to have one with the ectopic pregnancy, bc of course thats life threatening. We had testing done and everything came back normal. So we were given the ok to ttc in January. After a lot of thinking, praying I feel its time to try now. I'm trying to stay as positive as I can but of course I still worry. Anyways just wanted to share a little with you all and wish you all the best!! 

Holly  :)

    We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.

    “So can you understand? Why I want a daughter while I’m still young? I wanna hold her hand and show her some beauty before all this damage is done. But if it’s too much to ask, it’s too much to ask … Then send me a son.” – Arcade Fire

  • Thank you all for being so welcoming! I'm so sorry to hear of your losses too, I wish no woman ever had to experience that feeling. I have been feeling so sad lately, just about my angels. Don't know what it is, maybe its bc we are ttc now, its so many emotions! I'm sure you all understand! It really doesn't help that 2 of my best friends just found out they are expecting. One of my friends it will be her 4th child. I cried to my husband when I found out and felt horrible for doing so, but I said how is it so easy for some people, I would be so complete if I could just have one baby, just one! Oh well I guess this is normal!
