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!!
