Possibly 3 Miscarriages

[Babypebble]

I just wondered if anyone can give me some hope out there. Me and my husband have been trying to concieve for just three months. I have had 2 early miscarriages and think I am in the process of my another one. My doctor is very helpful, she has already sent me for blood tests and ultrasound (i don’t have my results back yet though) but I feel so lonely and upset. She’s now been signed off sick herself for two weeks. I’m 24 years old and have always had regular periods. I don’t know what’s wrong with me and I feel like i’ll never hold a baby past 4 weeks. Is there any nice stories out there or any advice anyone can give? Thank you to who ever takes the time to read this x

It's early days yet. You'll likely be referred after three confirmed miscarriages so that could help. I suffered lots some immediate ones so I had a positive test but period came a week or even less later ... had others where I got to 8-11 weeks also. Not sure what worked but I tried
Weight loss (I'm a bit over weight) but under weight should consider putting on a little bit
Agnus castus
Aspirin (quarter per day )
Hcg injections (under doctor)
High concentration folic acid
I'm sure you'll get there, it sometimes takes a bit of time and you've only recently started trying (I know how upsetting it is though no matter how long it's been)
Good luck but keep trying and keep seeing your doctor

Thank you for your quick message!i know it’s early days I just struggle with it every time, I’m not sure if I would prefer to have not gotten pregnant at all yet. I read that when you get to three miscarriages it makes it more likely you will have another. I’m struggling to be positive.
I’ll mention these things to the doctor because I am only pleasing clots no fresh blood which is odd. Maybe aspirin would help like you’ve said. Thank you again x

@Babypebble I hope you're doing ok and your doc can give you some answers as to what's going on. We're all here if you need to vent, get advice or even just a hand hold. Lots of love to you. xxx

I passed clots with my dd. No fresh blood is a good sign!
Hopefully you get answers and a successful preg before you know it! Xx

@Hidcat thank you! I’ll post my results once we finally get them.xx @emmafh3 oh that is some good news! I’m not sure in my case though as it’s very similar to my last mc, it’s almost black and has been happening for 2 days. I’ll try to be positive though. xxx

@Babypebble would be interested to hear the outcome when you get your results. Hope all is ok and you get a sticky one soon,

I got a bfp on Saturday and started bleeding the same day, still the same now (although lighter but fresh red blood) and the tests have got fainter to the point they are barely there at all today

I haven't gone to the docs. I'm ttc number 1. I also had an early mc many years ago when I caught on the pill unexpectedly with previous partner, in not sure how far along I was then either but had a very faint positive then bled and had an internal scan that didn't show anything so guessing early. I know what you mean it's hard to think there's not something wrong. I am unsure when to go to docs, I hope I don't get to a third but was going to go then if I did- do the docs need to have been informed of the mc on each occasion or will they take your word for it than it's been 3?

Some might take your word for it. I know many of mine don't count my chemical I first had because its not on my notes. But I made a point of making them record every mc I've had since

Thank you, in that case I may give them a visit now then.

Hi everyone, I’ve seen a doctor this morning and she had sent me for a referral. The tests I’ve done at the gp have shown no problems so I get to see a specialist now. Very odd but I feel very relieved that a problem may be found that we can easily fix so fingers crossed. I’m so sorry to hear of your losses @sprinkleofsunshine its heart breaking. It’s worth trying with the doctors, some can be very sympathetic like mine. Best of luck everyone xx

Thank you @Babypebble best of luck to you! At least you can hopefully get some answers now. Are you having a confirmed loss now?

Do you mind me asking what tests they did at the doctors and was this after the third loss or earlier?

I've spoken to the dr and she advised to wait a cycle now until ttc again- has anyone else been advised the same?

@sprinkleofsunshine it's usually for dating purposes. Advice stretches between not waiting and waiting 3 cycles but if they don't give you a specific reason I'd probably not wait.

Thanks @HidCat I was actually thinking was it because of dating reasons.

No I'm not going to wait I don't think. As long as my bleeding has stopped which hopefully it will have by my fe which starts on Sunday then I'm not going to wait.

@sprinkleofsunshine my doctor started helping at my second miscarriage. I had a female doctor who felt sorry for me I think. I spoke with the doctor again about trying again and I’ve decided to wait this month to allow myself to have a period, with mine being one after the other I think it will help me to see a normal period. Though with mine being so early it wouldn’t cause and internal problems it’s just whether you are mentally well and like @hidcat says dating purposes. X

That makes sense @Babypebble to wait a month. I see what you mean about being early so will get back on, I know a few people have had a bfp right after a cp so eager to just get on.

I don't think there will be any record of my first one as it was dealt with by a family planning clinic not through the dr. Also as it was ten years ago I'm wondering if they would event count it? Although because these are the only 2 times I've gotten pregnant and it's happened on both would that count as two in a row, even with the huge gap?

I had three in a row, my consultant gave me cyclogest at my first appointment and I was pregnant by my second.

She is three now, don’t give up hope

Hi @BifsWif thanks for sharing! Love hearing stories like that. How far along were you wth them, if you don't mind me asking? Also, I'm quite new to all of this - is that a tablet?

Quite early, less than 8 weeks each time. I didn’t have a period between the last miscarriage and my successful pregnancy either.

It’s a progesterone supplement, I think mine was too low to sustain a pregnancy. It’s in the ‘can’t hurt, might help’ camp so my doctor was happy to prescribe it x

Ah ok thanks. I've read a couple of times about progesterone helping people now. That's interesting to know you didn't have a period in between and went onto a successful one, really hoping that's me next month!

Sorry for those of you who have suffered losses. I would recommend The Miscarriage Association for information and potential support. There are lots of encouraging stats here showing that even after several MCs, you are statistically more likely to have a successful pregnancy than another MC. I have a number of friends who have had 3-6 MCs and now have at least one child. www.miscarriageassociation.org.uk

Hi everyone, hope you are all well. What a lovely story @bifswif I need to be positive and hear that there this hope! Thank you @poppyj1 I will have a look at that. X
