Hey everyone

I was not aware this group existed!

Anyway, I guess I am here after suffering a number of miscarriages. My first miscarriage was in 2004 (around 8 weeks) and not a day goes past that I don't think about it.... I a blessed with a wonderful 22 month old son and we just started trying for another child in December. I got pregnant straight away and was so excited.. but I miscarried at 5-6 weeks. I left it a couple of cycles and got pregnant again... and miscarried at almost 6 weeks. We wanted to wait for a couple of months before trying again, but I just found out I was pregnant last week...  and I have miscarried again today at 6 weeks 2 days.. So 3 pregnancies and 3 miscarriages in less than 6 months!

I know the pregnancies have been fairly close together (too close!),  and I guess if there is any consolation whatsoever I am thankful that if it was going to result in miscarriage it happened really early... Despite this, it has been a rollercoaster of emotions and I am confused, numb and my head hurts trying to come to terms with it all. I am also trying to get hubby to talk about it, I know he is hurting too but he keeps it all to himself!

Re: Hey everyone

Hi there!  I'm so sorry for your losses.  Even though they were early you still grieve and it is hard to find people to understand.  I think too when there is more than one it is hard as you want to know why - and there's not always answers.  Have you managed to find out anything about why they might be happening?

Encourage your husband to talk - and you need to as well!  It takes a long time to heal emotionally and it can lead to depression (as in my case), so be easy on yourself and acknowledge that you need time to grieve. I wish I could help more, but feel free to Minti mail me if you need to - if you just want to 'chat' to someone.

Take care of yourself!

Re: Hey everyone

Thank you!

I kinda feel a bit phoney being here as the miscarriages are so early.. but after it seems to be happening time and time again I am getting so frustrated and I am physically and mentally drained now. I am convinced it is related to my son's birth and associated problems.. but I guess I need to wait and chat to my OBGYN first to see what he thinks.

Thanks

Lorna
