Infertility is a very hard thing to hit a woman. I can't imagine what it must be like. My sister went through it. She was told that she was infertile by her doctor. Her husband was a doctor too, but besides all the knowledge they could do nothing. Then they tried going for IVF. At first they were resistant, they were double minded. But then my sister went to various fertility clinics, and the doctor assured her that she had a chance through IVF. Thus, they started the treatments. Her first few tries went down the drain, she even had a miscarriage. But on her 5th try, she was pregnant, and at 9 months, she gave birth to her precious little baby girl.

Hello there. How are you?. I hope you are doing fine. Your questions are very valid to ask. Miscarriage is a terrible thing to happen to anyone. It is feared by every woman. My sister went through 2 miscarriages a few years back. Her husband used to be out of town a lot so i accompanied her through her doctors appointments. After her second miscarriage, her doctor told her that there might be no chance for her to actually have a baby. She was devastated, but she kept strong. And she stayed positive. Her husband was always there for her be it on call. He returned to her and he consoled her that it did not matter if she could not conceive. So it really depends on the person. They ttc again. And she did conceive. My sister has a beautiful baby girl now. It is difficult to get over, but positivity can take you a long way.

Hey! I hope you are doing well. Miscarriages are a terrible thing that can happen to a family. It is like your dream of having a child and the next moment it is all gone. There are various reasons why miscarriages happen. But I do not think that miscarriages should affect the relationship. It is the responsibility of the husband to understand that no one is at fault. If they continue to conversate after miscarriage things will not mess up. Instead of blaming each other, they must find out a solution. One must understand that it is all God's plan. Things will get better eventually. So one must face it strongly. I just hope everyone has a safe pregnancy journey. To lose an unborn child is terrible. My best wishes are with you all!

Infertility can be a very difficult thing to cope with. I have had a friend who went through it. So she contacted a fertility clinic. And after having some visits with her doctor, she opted for surrogacy. i prefer surrogacy for couples who are infertile or aged because it is easier. There are no risks of any sort. It is expensive and a lengthy procedure. But it is worth it. Because of the end result. I suppose people are leaning towards it now more. Although one has to be really careful while choosing the clinic. And it isn't as if taking any risks. If there are women who have the chance to get pregnant through IVF then they should. Best wishes for anyone opting for it.

Hey! I am so sorry to hear about your friend. Infertility is truly very painful. I can understand how your friend would be feeling. You must stay by her side forever. It is not easy but she needs your support. She must be feeling terrible. I am also infertile. I remember when I first got to know about my infertility. I could not stop blaming myself. I only felt better when my cousin met me and supported me. She could relate to my situation. This world will tend to taunt a lot. Tell her to stay strong. My best wishes are with her!

I understand what you are going through... I also have had 2 consecutive miscarriages 8 to 9 weeks. All tests done thus far have been negative (hb, platelets, coagulation, anticardiolipin, infection). Was detected to be borderline hypothyroid during the first pregnancy so was started on meds, still it happened the second time. Am really loosing hope... and its frustrating to not know the cause... parental karyotyping is pending.. lets see what that says... any suggestion is welcome.

I always had health problems. But I never took them seriously. It was only during my pregnancy did I realize what my habit of smoking with friends had done to my body. I had abortions earlier which also made my reproductive system very weak. With all this in my medical history, pregnancy arrived. I was happy but at each stage I had to be extra careful. The doctor advised me bed rest. Every time I went for a check up I felt scared. I could have had a miscarriage any time. My pregnancy was a very complicated. Every moment troubled and I took all the possible steps to not hurt my baby. After my baby was born in the seventh month and was in the intensive care for sometime that I realized what a miscarriage can do to mothers and fathers. I truly regret what I did earlier and have made health modifications to be followed for a lifetime. It is my sincere advise to all those who plan to have a baby to take extremely good care of their health and adopt the right birth control methods. And do not despair keep up hopes even when you feel you are surrounded with trouble. Stay positive.

My wife had a miscarriage twice. The first time we supported each other and were ready to give it another chance. We thought we would manage each other and move on. No point in endlessly grieving. We had to go ahead. But the loss of our child the second time has really shaken us. Especially my wife. I have told her a million times that i love her more than anything and we will have a child. I show faith even when I am uncertain of what will be. She is now going through this thing that she cannot have a healthy child and there is something wrong with her. She has lost interest in things around her. she wants to quit her job and just remember the baby. She keeps admiring other babies and desires to have just one child that would fulfill our existence. Giving birth to a child is painful but losing the same child is so easily pains for a lifetime.

My best friend had a miscarriage and I delivered last month. It was really upsetting to see her go through all the pain. It was difficult to accept since I was pregnant too, so I could feel what she was going through. Imagine if I were in her place I would be shattered. I was carrying a baby inside me and to only know what had happened with her had scared me completely. The last thing I would think of going wrong was losing my precious child. It is unimaginable what parents go through when such unfortunate events occur. No one can be blamed. All you can do is think of ways to cope with it. I completely empathise with my friend. She has been brave and her husband has been really supportive. Its difficult to fathom their grief with the smiles they always wear on their faces. Initially she was very broken but a supportive husband made coming out of the depressive feelings. I guess the life partner plays a very significant role in dealing with such life situations.
