Midwife's Advice

My Midwife advised that I wait a full cycle before trying to get pregnant again.

She also thought that nothing I did was likely to cause a miscarry, but rather was just a bad pregnancy.

Women who are 35-45 yrs old have a 20-35% chance of miscarriage.

My gut is that your midwife was quite right about that. With your lifestyle, it makes sense that there was nothing you could have done to prevent this from happening. Knowing that so many Moms who run or do aerobics right up until the last days, eat atrociously, are stressed out or even have had some significant blows/injuries have still had successful pregnancies, it makes sense that your embryo was rejected naturally as God has created our bodies to do. With successful pregnancies before, you know you have been doing the right things and will likely have another successful pregnancy after you start trying again.
