Trigger warning: miscarriage, stats.

I have two kids, 11 and 8. I just had a miscarriage at 12 weeks, baby had passed weeks before. I'd had a heartbeat at 8 weeks.

I googled this information: apparently at 43 my odds of having a baby now, live birth is around 5%

I'm devastated by this. Apparently 9 out of 10 eggs are chromosomally abnormal. At least 50% of pregnancies at this age are miscarried. I had high hopes I could have more but now I feel completely dejected
