We found out I was pregnant after 2 years!!!! I had an abortion two years ago when I was 6 weeks and 4 days.

After those two years of being financially stable, amazing jobs, and home buyers we became pregnant again. I’am now 20 years old and my husband is 24! Within those two years we tried and didn’t try. Probably why it took two years to conceive again, but we were just “ letting it happen.” At one point, it sure did cross my mind that I really thought something was wrong with me. Why wasn’t I getting pregnant this whole time? January was the month we really took it seriously and the difference from that month was that I drank pink stork fertility tea everyday and my husband took his own prenatal’s too. It worked wonders for us. Once I saw those 8 positive pregnancy tests, it was like shooting stars.

We were so happy to announce we were pregnant, we told close family members. I was already showing so much. I was 7 weeks ! I had already scheduled my first OBGYN at 5 weeks and continued to take prenatal’s. I continued to eat healthy and stay hydrated. I did everything.

Two days ago, I started spotting at work. It was super light pink, barely noticeable. I panicked but everyone always says that spotting is normal right ? It stopped then I had mucus discharge. Also totally normal. Me panicking, I almost opted to leave work but figured TOTALLY NORMAL. It stopped. Once I got home, I had brown discharge. Again, brown discharge is good because it’s old blood right? The spotting stopped at night, all the way until morning. I went to the restroom to pee one last time before I left to work the following morning, until I wiped and saw light pink blood again but more than the previous day before.

I rushed to the ER at 7am and was there all day. I took ultrasounds, my cervix was closed, tons of blood work.... everything in the book. The funny thing is I felt normal. No cramps or anything concerning.

The doctor came in after countless hours and I had her cut striaght to the point. I looked her in the eyes and she indeed said we were having a early miscarriage. My heart sank, I just cried and cried. I was loss for words. The discharge nurse came and asked if I was okay, she must have not read the discharge forms yet when she asked..... The doctor had told us that it was because of one of the chromosomes being not strong enough. Someone please give me more insight on that.... has it happened to you as well?

She reassured us that this wouldn’t have been a healthy baby to begin with. However, I just can’t help but think was this pay back from my abortion or god just doing his thing for us. I prayed every night just to receive this, every night. I wouldn’t dare to go to bed without praying. I don’t understand.

Please share your stories of TTC after miscarriages. We never thought this would ever happen to us. We were healthy and excited. I’am confused and broken.
