Hi all
The title says it all. I've had 2 successive early missed miscarriages and it's taken quote a while to get pregnant each time. I'm now 41 and feel like time is really ticking and my chances are running out. I want to see a doctor and looking for any recommendations of some one good in London or Herts.
Thanks for reading

Dr Lesley Reagan at St Marys Paddington runs a recurrent miscarriage clinic. I went to see her after 2 MMC under my belt at the age of 43. I attended as a private patient and it wasn't cheap but she was empathetic, thorough and no nonsense which is how I like my medic professionals . In my case the conclusion was that my egg quality was poor and that it was likely that I would continue to miscarry but i might be lucky to catch a good egg and she would help support any subsequent pregnancy.
Whilst upsetting it allowed my DP and I to really decide what we were willing to do. In our case we decided to explore egg donation and at the age of 45 I gave birth to my son.
We are going to try for a sibling with a frozen cycle. Although not what I wanted to hear - it laid out my options for me.
Good luck.

I'm 41 with one year of old twins and I went to the Herts & Essex fertility. I can not rate them enough!! I travelled far to have treatment there and got pregnant first time and so did my friend, both with twins. X
