1st Round Miscarriage

Hi everyone, feeling a little low this week, me and my wife embarked on IVF in October and we managed to get pregnant in the first cycle.

Unfortunately we miscarried on our 8 week scan, which was really tough to take. Looking for some positive stories from this situation.

This has really broken us 💔

we had an early loss with our first…our second resulted in our 4 year old and our third and last resulted in our two year old! We thought we wouldn’t be that lucky but here we are! Sit tight! xxxx

like the previous commenter, it is important to understand what the cause is so the next round can be better. It’s usually the egg in most cases and testing would prove success especially as it has now been confirmed that she can get pregnant.

First of all im very sorry this has happened to you and your wife, sadly it seems to be a common thing, we are Same position here, we got pregnant first attempt and miscarried at 7 weeks 3 days, it's very distressing especially when you see a heartbeat, all I can say is grieve and take as long as you need and eventually you and your wife will find the strength to Carry on, this ivf stuff is never plain sailing, wishing you all the best

So sorry to hear this x

We unfortunately lost twins at 7 weeks back in August x Nothing anyone can say can make you feel better but also know you’re not alone. Be kind to yourself and speak to your consultant when you feel it’s ready.

Those were our last embryos so i’m starting stims today and doing one last OE cycle but doing pgta. Our consultant told us most miscarriages are due to an embryo abnormality., since everything with my husbands sperm is fine he’s put it down to poor egg quality from years of silent endo x

Good luck for the future xx

I’m so sorry to read this, but please don’t give up hope.

Take time to heal and ask all the questions you can to your clinic. See what you can possibly do differently next time or even if you want to try naturally.

Wishing you the very best xx

Im so sorry for your loss it’s the most painful feeling. Just take day by day and when you’re ready you can try again. Do you have any frozen embryos? We had a miscarriage back in July with our first fresh cycle and we have now just transferred one of our frozen embryos as of last week. Hoping we get out rainbow baby and you will too 🌈

Sorry to read this, it's devastating and my heart goes out to you. We also had a miscarriage at 12 weeks with our first fresh transfer after seeing a heartbeat so I know the pain you're going through. Do you have any more embryos left to try? Our second frozen transfer resulted in our daughter. I only left it about 2 months before trying again, I know everyone reacts differently and you may need more time but personally the experience made me made me even more determined to keep going.

Fast forward 3 years and we've been trying for a second child (with the same batch of embryos) but have had 2 more early miscarriages at the 8 week scan and I'm trying our last frozen embryo now which is a very early positive...Keeping everything crossed it sticks around as it's our last embryo we have.

In our experience there has been nothing that has come up in tests that is unusual or anything, the most likely thing it would be is a chromosomal issue.

I know things seem dark now but hope you can lean in to each other for support and courage during this difficult time. Best of luck xx
