Hi ladies,
I found these boards invaluable after my first MC in August 2009 and am now back seeking more support and advice after my 2nd MC. My first MC was at 11+5 and this latest one (having an ERPC on Wednesday as it's not going anywhere on its own it seems) was at 10 weeks, but baby stopped growing at 9+1 - the day after a perfect scan, same as last time.
I am so so so lucky to have an amazing 3 year old DD so this was my third pregnancy. I know that 2 MC in a row usually doesn't warrant investigation, but my reason for looking for some answers is that I get horrendous hyperemesis when pregnant. This was therefore my third bout of it and i find it so difficult to cope with mentally and physically to end up with nothing at the other side - twice now.
I dread putting myself through this again if there is a possibility that something is going on that may require treatment which could have a positive effect on the outcome. Sooooooo after this mammoth post has anyone had any luck with pushing for testing after two MC? It took us over a year to conceive the latest pregnancy and we had been referred to the fertility clinic so I had a laparoscopy and hydrotubation which showed no problems. Although I am very nervous about having another ERPC as I know this can cause problems with adhesions etc. but don't feel I have a choice as my body seems determined to hold on to this pregnancy. I am 35 this month BTW.
Thanks for ploughing on and reading this!
