I am sorry for your losses. I too have had three mcs. Mine have just been in the last 15 months! I know it sounds crazy, but I want to try again. I do not want to go through another loss either. I almost threw my hands up and said no more. I decided to just go on and try again.

If you need to talk just let me know!

I am so sorry for your losses. I had a m/c in June. Luckily I am blessed with two other wonderful children. I wish you the best of luck in the future. Has your doctor done any testing to try to figure out what is causing the m/c's?

Please dont give up, without great risk there is no great reward. You cant let fear stop you from sonething you really want. I have had many losses and although my partner is worried about possibly having to loss another i refuse to let that stop me. If you want it bad enough them please go for it,

sending you sticky baby dust your way

staying strong and full of hope

Though I've just had one MC and can't imagine how you must feel, I can say that I do feel the same way regarding fearing going through it again. I never realized it's not just the loss of a baby, it's the loss of your innocence. All future pregnancies are based in fear and complete awareness. When deciding to get pregnant again, we forevermore equally decide to take a chance on losing a child. Before a MC, you just focus on the addition to the family. Now you have to psych yourself up to go through the potential loss and all that entails.

I don't have any helpful words, and I'm not in a very positive place on the whole TTC thing right now (just lost my baby 1.5 weeks ago). But if you really want another child, the reward will be there in the end (as you know from your little one!) and all you can do is face the pain if it comes.
