*SENSITIVE* For anyone having a miscarriage this Christmas...

[Zebedee1971]

Two years ago we had our second failed ivf cycle, we made it to 6 weeks but the line gradually got lighter and lighter. I miscarried 6th December. Christmas was a sad time and honestly I didn't want to celebrate it.

In January we saw our miscarriage specialist. In September I was pregnant. The following Christmas, just a year later, I went to my 12 week scan just two days before christmas day. My clinic had booked me in on the last day before the holidays. We saw our little person happily kicking about. Something I never thought would ever happen. I felt we were destined to fail.

This year, we are celebrating our first christmas with our little human.

So, I just wanted to say - to anyone out there experiencing loss this Christmas - hold on to hope! It doesn't feel like it at the time, but things can change so SO quickly.

This time next year could be your happy ever after. Keep believing xxx

I’ve had 3 mc at 12w first one was in Nov & 3rd was over Xmas & into the new yr was an awful time took us 4 yrs in total to get our baby but like you we’ll be celebrating with a 7 mth old this Xmas, last Xmas was special too being able to tell family I was 17w pregnant. Hopefully everyone experiencing mc gets their rainbow baby soon x
