Hey ladies
Mind if I join you in here? Im looking to start ttc again in November. I have 2 little boys already Caleb (8) and Blake (7). My story is a long one, but I will cut it down to the basics. Last December we were very shocked to learn I was pregnant with a very big surprise baby. 3 kids had never been on the cards but despite the initial shock we were delighted. The day of our 16 week scan we received the devastating news that the babys heart had stopped beating and on 2nd March I gave birth to a very tiny and very special little boy named Aspen. It was without a doubt the most horrific thing thats ever happened in my life. We decided after a few months that a 3rd baby was definitely a part of our future now and were fortunate enough to fall pregnant again straight away.. all was going well, we saw a nice strong heartbeat at 7 weeks. Come 9 weeks I felt something wasnt quite right so I booked a private scan and again received the devastating news that the babies heart had stopped beating again. We had a post mortem with Aspen and sadly no reason was found for what happened, he was a perfectly healthy little boy whos heart just stopped one day 😩 We were also given tests with the second miscarriage in August and found out that the baby was a little girl and she had Downs syndrome which meant she most likely had problems that caused her not to be comparable with life. We named her Grace. I am absolutely petrified to try again but we want to have a 3rd child so badly now that the want outweighs the fear and have decided to start trying again in November. We have been fortunate enough to fall pregnant first time every time so praying for a rainbow 🌈
