Help & Advice
Hi Ladies,
Can I ask for some help?
I lost my baby boy at 17 weeks just a month ago. It was a natural labour (well as natural as it could be).
I have been given a 10% chance of what was wrong with my little boy reoccuring again. On paper this sounds so selfish but I was wondering when is the 'right' time to TTC again. The need and want to be a mummy is so overpowering and all consuming, I don't know what to do.
Me and OH had agreed to wait until my consultant appt to think about TTC again but daily we go back and forth on whether we just 'see' what happens. I have stopped bleeding and had no AF yet.
So any advice would be great.

when is your appointment??? if its been a month since you lost your baby then maybe your AF will turn up any day now??? so maybe just give it another week or two and then TTC!!!

10% is a tiny percentage so there is no reason it would happen again, have you had any advice yet from your consultant or is that why you are going for an appointment? Is your appointment soon, if so maybe it is best just to hold off until then.
Good luck and let us know how you get on

I was going to wait, but the 6 weeks after my operation felt like for ever so as soon as I was physically better we started again, I just want to be PG again, don't gt me wrong I am terrified though!
Do want ever feels right beween you and OH, you know when it feel right. When you do start again hope you have lots and lots of luck x
I do feel ready for it, in both the physical and emotional state. My appt is until the middle of April and that was our bench mark.
We go back and forth daily on whether we should BD sooner but I think we will stick to our agreed date. I guess I am being impatient and just want to have another baby, not to replace the baby but to replace the feelings.

I think when you have had your first properly period then you can try again..... I really hope next time goes will for you....
keep us posted

I know my story doesn't sound encouraging (sorry) but if you go into ttc after bereavement a lot of the mums in there also fell pregnant again quite quickly and are already well on their way to holding their new baby in their arms. Take care x
