Myriam (Switzerland)
Chapter One: We discover infertility
For my husband and me it was always clear that we
wanted a family. After 5 years together, we therefore married in
1997 and I stopped taking the pill. A year passed, and nothing
happened, which eventually started to unsettle us. Then in October
‘98 I became pregnant! We were overjoyed. But unfortunately I
started to bleed heavily in the 6th week and lost the baby. We were
devastated. But at least I knew that I was able to get
pregnant.
And in fact I did get pregnant again almost immediately in January
‘99. This time I was pretty anxious that I might lose it again.
Sadly everything repeated itself just as before, and I lost the
baby in the 7th week. We were both indescribably down. The
gynaecologist was also far from understanding, and simply said that
it was not normal practice to investigate thoroughly until after 3
miscarriages.
