I would suggest speaking with your OB and talk about how to plan for another pregnancy. Wishing you all the best. I am so sorry for your loss

They did loads of different tests on Brodie but no they couldn't tell us why he came early said it was genetic and that's about all we were told but surely there as to be a reason.

Emma,  I'm so sorry for your loss.

The future of your next pregnancies depend on what exactly happened when you lost Brodie.  Is it a mystery what ended the pregnancy?  Was there something clearly not right with him,  that he didn't survive the whole pregnancy?  Did you have a placenta that detached or was over your cervix,  causing lots of bleeding?  

The success of your future pregnancies depends on what went wrong with this last one.

Best wishes,  and prayers for a healthy baby.
