Hi Ladies,

I have been reading your posts for the last few months but have only had the courage to write for the 1st time today.

I had a miscarriage at 12 weeks quite a few years ago, that pregnancy wasnt planned and my DH and I decided to wait a few years before we tried again. We now have a 2 year old daughter and desperately want another baby. We tried for 15 months with no luck (I was charting my temps and using OPK's but each month AF reared her ugly head!!! I finally decided to take a break from TTC and see how we go. Wouldnt you know it I got my BFP the first month of not trying. We were totally stoked that it had finally happend. It felt like a big weight had been lifted off my shoulders that we didnt have to go through months and months of TTC and getting disappointed each time AF arrived.

I had terrible morning sickness but I took this as a good sign that my pregnancy was healthy. We went for our 12 week scan and to our devastation our bub had no heartbeat, I'd had previous scans at 7 and 9 weeks (coz of previous miscarriage) and everything seemed fine. They said our baby had died at 11 wks. I couldnt believe it had happened to me again. You miscarry once and you have so many people telling you that it wont happen again but sure enough it can.

I had to have a D & C and finally AF arrived again 12 weeks after (what a long wait that was). We decided to try again straight away and have now been trying for 6 months with no success!!!

I just wanted to say that I am so glad to be able to share my story with people who know what I have been through, none of my friends have been through this and they dont understand what it is like.

You ladies are an inspiration to me and I love reading your stories. I get excited everytime I read on here that someone finally got their BFP, it gives me hope and makes me belive that I too will get my long awaited BFP!!!

Sorry my story is so long.
