Hi guys

I wanted to start this board for those of us that have been affected by miscarriages. I feel that it's not spoken about, despite being so common and heartbreaking. It's sad that the moment you start telling people how many women share their own stories, but not before. It's like we are some secret club.

So it would be great if we had somewhere to share our stories, ask for advice and hear other peoples paths.

My story:

I'm 35 going on 36, married 2 years. We've been trying for both our firsts. Got pregnant after about 5 months of trying (and loosing 10kg before). Found out at our 12 week scan that the baby had no heartbeat and measured 9 weeks. This is after getting a strong heartbeat at 7 weeks. Confirmed 3 days later and had a D&C a day later. We elected to do genetic screening and it was found that it was a girl that had had Mosaic Monosomy X/Turner syndrome.

D&C was three weeks ago, we are thinking of trying again after my first period. Currently on a course of estrogen and progesterone that is supposed to prevent adhesions and start my period again (not 100% sure, forgot to ask detailed questions). I have mixed feelings about trying again; scared of another MC, scared it takes months/years to fall pregnant again.

What has been your experiences?
