8 mc ,and found out 4 months ago I have Hughes syndrome

[nataliebacchus2014]

Hi, I've had 8 mc in 4 years. I've been recently diagnosed with Hughes syndrome and just found out I'm pregnant I started on my 75g asprin 3 weeks ago had a scan 12th oct there was a gestation sac but nothing else. I'm so panicked it's going to happen again I don't sleep , I'm so moody and tired :(

Oh, gosh, that is so hard. Where are you being treated?

Have you considered counselling? 8 MCs is so much to cope with. I struggled hard with two. I also have Hughes but discovered it much earlier in terms of losses.

Hard as it, the gestational sac being empty won't be a clotting issue. It's one of those awful things that happen.

Once I started on the aspirin and clexane (and now high dose folic acid for another clotting issue!), I have had 2 successful pregnancies and another one on the go. The treatment does really work, and you will get pregnant again and this time armed with the right treatment. Courage!

I hope you don't mind me commenting on this but I have someone on my facebook with the same syndrome and miscarriage history. She started a support group called 'Life of Mine, Miscarriage Support' if you're on Facebook and want to look it up. Good luck.

I've had 6 mc, the last three consecutive, and have Factor V and what sounds like the same additional issue as outputgap. Two pregnancies failed on heparin and high-dose folic acid, but I have just given birth to dc3 on the same regime. I would have thought you should be on heparin, tbh - what is the rationale for just using the aspirin? Have you got a specialist looking after you? How many weeks are you? It can be normal v early on to only see a sac, of course. I do know and very much understand the fear Good luck.

I'm on go folic acid and 75g asprin Daily until a viable baby is seen with a heartbeat. I'm bk on tues for another scan and the rest of our results . They think I wasn't 6 weeks last week. I'm not getting my hopes up at all it's very hard after all this time . I'm so poorly this time thou, feeling so tired, sick, and my body aches. I've got constant tummy ache but think to put presser on me think my Ibs is playing up and I've got a water infection ??

I had a 6 week scan and only a sac. At following week there was a heartbeat. 6 weeks can be too early to tell. Don't lose heart, and good luck xxx
