Craftymummy - I am 43 and trying to conceive my second. I had a similar experience in May this year when we went to visit DH's family in Canada. I was 11 weeks and began to bleed the day before we came home. A scan showed the baby had stopped growing at 8.5 weeks. I waited one cycle to try again and got pregnant last month only to lose it two weeks later. We tried again straight away but AF began today so we obviously weren't successful. I am so sorry to see you on this board but I have to say it's nice to have someone my age around to talk with.
