2nd trimester loss after EP

Other Pregnancy and Baby Loss

Hi ladies

After 4 years of ttc I had an ep in feb 2007. 2 years tomorrow was my surgery where I lost my right tube and was told natural pregnancy impossible. It took my a long time to come to term with my lost EP. So me and DH picked up the pieces of our lives and found the strength to face IVF. We did have 9 frozen embryos in storage. So had FET which failed.

We had Full IVF in aug/sep 2010 failure was not an option. At our 7 week scan we saw two lovely flickers of our precious babies heartbeats. We got to 12 weeks, saw our babies wriggling and waving. This had to be it right ? I could finally put my infertiliy days behind me.

At 18 weeks I went to hospital with ‘discharge’ tinged with blood. I thought I would just be sent home for bedrest. On examination, I was completely dilated and would deliver in the next few hours. After an agonising night where I resisted labour, I delivered b/g twins on New Years Eve. So now I am here 2 years on three precious and wanted babies I will never bring home. Life is so cruel isn’t it.

The reason I wanted to post, was to acknowledge and remember my EP. Also to show that IVF after an EP can work. I am determined to continue this journey but have a long road ahead.

Thanks to EP trust for this forum. X

Hi Lola,

Just wanted to say how sorry I am for you…what an awful thing to have gone through. Although we can never ever replace the babies we have lost I hope that you will soon hold a baby in your arms.

Much love
