For most women, a miscarriage is a one-off event and they go on to have a successful pregnancy in the future. Most women are able to have a healthy pregnancy after a miscarriage, even in cases of recurrent miscarriages.

There are 4 steps to successful budgeting: fill in a budget sheet of all your incomings and outgoings, calculate your total incomings and outgoings, take action to change it if you need to, and regularly revise it.
Budgeting will help you keep track of money going out, avoid spending money that you don’t have, deal with debt by planning repayments in a way that you can manage, work out how much (if any) money you can save, and decide whether you can afford to buy something that you would like.
You can never know how many lives you’ve touched, so just know it’s far more thank you think. Even the tiniest acts of love, kindness and compassion can have a massive ripple effect. You have made the world a better place, even if you don’t always see it.
You’re a lot tougher than you were a few years ago. You’ve grown so much by overcoming your struggles. You are so much more well-equipped to deal with them now. Every challenge makes you stronger.

And if it does happen to you, it’s important to know how to get help.
