TTC After a Loss

Intro

Not the place I want to be but hello. A little history about me... In 2012 I got pregnant after 2 years of ttc but had a blighted ovum and finally miscarried naturally at 8 weeks. I now have a 3 year old and a 1 year old (both girls). We were trying for 3 months and found out I was pregnant in December but 2 and a half weeks ago I started spotting, went the the ER and they couldn't find a heartbeat anymore. I was 15 weeks and had 2 ultrasounds before that showed everything was fine. I scheduled my d&c for two days later but the following day my water broke and I delivered the baby at home... The hardest thing I've ever done. I want to try after my first period gets here but my husband wants to wait... It has been so hard being on different pages with this. Ugh.

  • I'm so sorry for your losses.  This is a very supportive board.  It can take a while to get on the same page following a loss as we all process it and heal differently.  I even find myself changing my mind daily right now about when I want to try again.
  • I am so sorry about your losses.
  • So sorry for your losses.

  • I am so sorry for your loss. I had a 14 wk loss and subsequent d&c in 2013 after 3 great u/s and to say it was devastating was an understatement. 

    I I was the one who wanted to wait to try again. My heart needed to heal a little first. I was too raw and open for a few months. I needed to get my mental strength back in case my next pregnancy resulted in loss as well. It didn't, thank god, but I had a lot of anxiety the whole time.

    all that to say I hope you two have a meeting of the minds soon and that your next pregnancy is smooth and healthy.

  • Thanks ladies! We have had some really great discussions and went back and forth about trying now versus later and are going to begin actively trying again!
