I just saw this on active convos and wanted to wish you luck. A friend of mine had an ectopic followed by two mcs very close together - she now has a lovely 10-month-old boy (in her case it was just terribly bad luck). As others have said, don't give up! It sounds as though you are doing all the right things in terms of investigating, and it's great that you are having some support from a consultant. All the very best. xx

It's great to hear positive stuff whenever !

I am now seeing consultant about recurrent mc. When I next get pregnant I have been promised scans on demand baby aspirin and progesterone. I am booked in for blood tests in the next week so at least I should know soon if there is a simple reason for my problems or just really bad luck.

Sorry, old message, I didn't realise - hope it helps someone though x

Oh sweetheart

Yes, there is hope. My friend had two miscarriages and then lost a tube to an ectopic.

She then had IVF which failed, and eventually had a second round and it was successful - she now has a little boy

I wish you luck

my daughter as just ad her 2nd miscarrage both at 5 wk an 3 days,she wants to know her blood group as im rhesus neg and needed anti d with my 2nd pregnancy.if she is rhesus neg and her boyfriend is pos could this be the reason why she is miscarrying.

Hi I have only just saw your message sorry its late but I feel the need to reply, I have a positive story regarding an ectopic pregnancy, I had a double ectopic pregnancy carrying twins 2 1/2 years ago, I lost both babies ( one was in the womb, one in the tube) and I was treated using a drug called methotrexate ( not sure of the spelling)
I had a spell in hospital and was told that my risks of having another ectopic pregnancy were higher than someone who hasnt had one and my chances of getting pregnant were slightly reduced.
However within 2 1/2 months I was pregnant again ( I was a bit naughty and should have waited longer!) but the pregnancy was problem free and my little boy was born 9 months later. There is light at the end of the tunnel never give up!!

Koochy is so right! Your time will come.

I had that phrase said to me so many times while I was trying to have my family and I didn't believe it would ever happen. But it did and it will be well worth the wait. Try to distract yourself with something else - easy to say I know! After my second m/c I got into the gym and got really fit. It was the last thing I wanted to do but it stopped me thinking about it all the time and I was ready for pregnancy when it did happen.

Fingers crossed for you

xx

Thank you all for your support, I feel so much more positive, bit scared of it happening again, but feel that if the consultant can't find a problem we will keep trying. Just waiting for the referal/appt and we will see what happens.

I am going to get us both a lot more healthier, but other than that I think we are doing all we can.

Good Luck to all.

svy is right - there is always hope.

I conceived 3 years ago but it was an ectopic pregnancy, I lost a tube and was extremely traumatised. I truly think that it will stay with me forever, it was shocking and brutal. I was desperate to be pregnant again and within 3 months I was. This time a missed miscarriage. After the ectopic it was actually a relief to be a 'normal' m/c but was still distraught. It then took 1 year to conceive again, and again I miscarried. I then went and had every test known to man and no problem was found, so 12 months later we confidently undertook IUI. Fell pregnant, m/c a few weeks later.

After the last m/c last summer I changed path. I went to a fertility nutritionist, and took up yoga and meditation, all last October only. I fell pregnant in December and am now 20 weeks with a healthy viable pregnancy. I am spectacularly anxious of course, but the fact is, this baby is coming and I never believed that with 1 tube and 4 pregnancies lost I would be able to say that.

Take solace, your time will come. Do not give up! Try something new and be kind to yourself.
