Hi ladies (and some gents too!). I haven't been on here for a while as after 3 years of TTC & nearly startin IVF we found out I conceived naturally! Not only that we were having twins! Our little miracles! We held off what felt like ages telling people but coming up to the 12th week we told everyone. (Had a scan at 9 weeks as we thought I was further along which confirmed twins).
But on Friday 12th September at our scan we were told there were no heart beats. I started bleeding over the weekend and today had to have a D&C at the hospital. To say it's been a long long day is an understatement but here I am in the bath full of big bubbles thinking yes it is sad, yes my husband and I are devastated but I now know I can get pregnant. What I didn't know is that 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage. Now I'm not mentioning that to scare anyone at all because what I took from it was that I know I didn't do anything wrong. I ate the right things, drank the right things but nature took it's course.
Now my body has to reset itself & in a month or so time we will try again. Feeling sad but staying positive. Xx

So sorry to hear that but good that you know you can concieve naturally sometimes ive heard that when you give up trying it just happens for some people x
That's what happened to us Hun, we were due to start IVF and fell pregnant naturally. Don't get me wrong feeling so, so sad but I have to look forward otherwise I'm stressing my body out even more. Two small but very special and adored creations made with pure love will always, always have a place in our hearts. Xx
I am so inspired by your positive outlook, I had a miscarriage a few years ago and I know how hard it is. I wish you all the look in the world for the future xx
Mooster so sad to read your post. I'm amazed how brave you are being and touched that you have shared this with us ladies. But you are right to take the positives, you can do it naturally and IVF is still an option. Be kind to yourself and takes some time out and good luck xx
You have been through so much and yet have stayed so positive, you are an inspiration to all who read your story. I hope all goes well for you next time and like everybody on this website let's keep helping each other through the difficult times. Love to you, maisie x
