Hi, I had a miscarriage in December, the histology report showed that the cause was triploidy. The baby had extra chromosomes 13, 15, 16, 18, 21, 22 and also an extra x chromosome. I am now pregnant again, about 5 weeks, and although the report said there is low risk of it happening again I am obviously quite worried that it could. I'm just wondering if anyone else has went on to have a successful pregnancy after miscarrying or terminating due to triploidy? Did the same thing happen again? I am 37 although the consultant said it was nothing to due with my age.

Sorry to hear this. we were in your situation last year. During my NT scan they have found the problem eventually we were asked to terminate the pregnancy and we did. Post that while discussing with our Genetic doctor they mentioned "The triploidy is sporadic or random , no reason behind this " .
I think in your case also doc will suggest to terminate the pregnancy because that's the only solution.
Be strong , 99% triploidy will not reoccur.Take care of your wife'health and your mental health. This too shall pass
