Hi everyone,
I’m currently going through my second miscarriage in as many months. I fell pregnant for the first time in March and miscarried naturally at 6w2d. We then fell pregnant again straight away without a period in between but unfortunately this was another miscarriage which resulted in a d&c due to a suspected partial molar pregnancy this week. I know we have to wait for histology/monitoring before TTC again and this is likely to be a few months but I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions of things I can do to maximise our chances the next time around.
I’m almost 34 so starting to panic that time isn’t on my side. I do have PCOS but this is mild and that is really my only significant medical history aside from some mild asthma/eczema. My BMI is technically normal but I’m trying to lose a stone anyway. Supplements wise I’ve been taking folic acid, high dose vitamin D, omega 3, coq10 and myo inositol. When I fell pregnant the second time I started cyclogest pessaries which I got privately. I was thinking of maybe adding in baby aspirin next time around although I’m not sure on the dose of this? Are there any good supplements my partner could take?
We eat well and exercise so it feels like we’re doing everything right but it just isn’t working out and it feels very disheartening. My GP ran some bloods after the first miscarriage (FBC, thyroid function, liver function, kidney function, b12 and folate, testosterone levels, coagulation screen and antiphospholipid antibodies) which all came back normal so there’s nothing glaringly obvious wrong but I need to feel like I’m doing something if that makes sense!
