Recurrent Miscarriage Clinic - what to expect?

8 replies

samanthajonespr · 03/06/2018 15:45

My husband and I have an appointment at our local hospital in the Recurrent Miscarriage Clinic on Tuesday. I'm a bit worried that we're going to be dismissed because although we've had 3 miscarriages in 12 months, we already have a healthy 2 year old so I'm able to carry a baby to full term.
Would anybody mind sharing their experiences with me? What can I expect? I can't stop thinking about it.

@Carri90 so sorry for your losses. It's so horrible isn't it? I had a scar ectopic in June last year followed by an early miscarriage at Christmas and then naturally miscarried twins at 8 weeks in March. I'm glad there's resources out there for getting to the bottom of it all but it feels so hopeless at times. In a way I dread getting pregnant even though we're TTC. Hope your appointment brings you what you need Thanks

It’s really horrible and the fact that everyone on my Facebook seems to be announcing that there pregnant doesn’t help. I’m yet to get my period back too, just wanna feel normally again xxx

Hi, I was referred to the clinic last year after four miscarriages in a year. It was an okay experience, we spoke through our problems with the nurse and she explained the tests that we would need to have to check if there was an issue fertility wise. I was glad my husband went with me as there was a lot of information to take in and I don't have the greatest attention span, especially when I'm nervous.

We had a meeting after two due to age when we were pregnant. Had a meeting with consultant and variety of tests for both, blood, sperm count etc. We got pregnant again in the middle of the tests but unfortunately we lost that baby as well. Following that I had a test and found that I had a fibroid the size of a tangerine!! Once that was removed we tried again. Got pregnant, had frequent scans and five years later we still look at our little girl and thank God for the NHS. good luck with everything xx

I'm so sorry you are going through this... I really understand what you're feeling right now. I came to this forum after I had my m/c. I feel that I'm so lost and empty. I've been trying to get pregnant for 7 yrs. I tried everything I could. IUIs, finally we tried IVF… I was soo happy to get pregnant! I was not expecting to lose it.. Feeling so sad!! My heart breaks when I hear story like this... I know once you get pregnant, there’s a baby there inside of you... It’s your baby... Sorry if it seems like I’m venting. It just hurts me so bad... Some people don’t understand what we go through. They’ve never experienced it. So it is easy to say things that will hurt our feelings. But here on this forum we know how it really feels. We find comfort from each other… Thanks to all of you ladies. Hopefully you'll find comfort & be strong.
