This may not be helpful right now, but the fact that you are able to get pregnant multiple times is a positive sign. It could be that you have had some bad eggs that have resulted in the miscarriages. If you are willing to keep trying you have a good chance of having a successful pregnancy.
What helped me after multiple miscarriages was not getting too excited when I did get pregnant again. I was happy but, didn't tell anyone (except dr and husband). DUring the first trimester I considered myself 'sort of pregnant'. I know it seems silly because you either are or you're not, but after so many losses I just felt that way. I didn't get emotionally attached or excited until I made it past the thirteenth week.
Good luck to you OP. I hope it works out
I agree with this except for the part about bad eggs. 5 miscarriages in a row is probably a sign of some other issues. If so many of her eggs were that bad she probably wouldn't be able to get pregnant in the first place even with IVF.
I also had many miscarriages and I took the same approach as pp. After the second miscarriage I stopped getting excited and just lived day to day.
I'm so sorry for your losses
