I have no advice but I am so, so sorry for your losses.

I am so sorry for your losses. I experienced an early second trimester loss (16 weeks) several months ago after a rough first tri with all day, every day nausea etc. Take some time. Your body has been through a pregnancy....every pregnancy takes its toll no matter the length.

I found the book "Empty Cradle, Broken Heart" to be helpful guiding me through some of the stages of emotions I was feeling early on. Even now, 10 weeks later I'm still referring to it as I start to deal with the emotions of *considering* TTC again. If you can find a therapist that specializes in fetal/infant loss that is also incredibly helpful. My thoughts are with you. None of this is easy. Be kind to yourself and your body especially in these early days.

ETA: I hope you can find some information through testing. We had testing done for our little one and found out it was a chromosomally normal boy. It gave us some much needed closure as we could give him a name etc. I hope that if there is something going on they can give you some answers and options moving forward.

I'm so sorry for both your losses. I found this book Coping With Infertility, Miscarriage, and Neonatal Loss: Finding Perspective and Creating Meaning To be really helpful.

I'm sorry for your losses.

Someone recommended "I Will Carry You" to me but I never read it so I'm not sure if it is appropriate for you.
