Loss of symptoms, heartbeat, but miscarriage later

[busymumm]

Hello everyone,
I don't post here often but do read and know you're all very knowledgeable and would be really grateful if anyone can answer a question for me?
I've had four consecutive miscarriages that I know of and two healthy boys before that.
1st m/c @ 7 weeks started with spotting, never had morning sickness.
2nd m/c had quite bad nausea starting week 5 to 8ish, which stopped almost overnight and I started spotting a week later.
3rd m/c too early for sickness at 5 weeks.
Before the last I saw a consultant who put me on blood thinners and progesterone from positive pregnancy test. And at 7 weeks - on day of early scan - lost my symptoms again. Scan showed healthy baby and heartbeat, but started bleeding again at 10 weeks.
This was six months ago but now wondering if it's a hormone problem as nausea stopped while fetus still appeared viable? Soon after I started spotting there was no heartbeat (I really had to fight for that scan from an unhelpful nurse who said "bleeding is quite common, why don't you just wait and see what happens?")
And I had awful nausea and was miserable from weeks 7 to 18 with both boys.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this sequence of events - or is that just normally how a miscarriage happens? I've never had an early scan before so can't compare and they also never told me when they think the last one stopped growing.
Thank you!

Sorry, that doesn't read right - had such bad nausea that I was miserable from weeks 7 to 18 with my boys, so it's a worrying sign for it to stop. I do have friends who have had it stop for a couple of weeks, and still had healthy babies, but it's always been bad news for me

Sorry for your losses busy
Did you have recurrent miscarriage testing when you saw the consultant? I would think the loss of symptoms/nausea was due to falling HCG but that's the result, not the cause, of the pregnancy failing.
I have a similar history and my losses turned out to be due to high NK cells but there are many potential causes. You would be welcome to join the recurrent miscarriage support threads if you would welcome support or advice on further testing.

Hi Bakingtins, thanks for your response. I did have testing done but not for NK cells. Although think I may be poss candidate as have had previous babies and have previously (before kids) had high levels of antibodies linked to hypothyroidism? Consultant said previous children with DH would rule out NK cells but I've since read the opposite - that it's more likely after one or more children.
Just confused why failing pregnancy was not picked up on scan, but maybe that's how it happens.
Have seen recurrent m/c thread, will move there in future, thank you. Just found it so fast moving I couldn't keep up!

I had 2 children before I ran into problems with recurrent miscarriage and was diagnosed with high NK cells (by Prof Quenby in Coventry) and was told it's common for pregnancy to be a trigger, that many of their patients (someone on the thread recently said they'd been told a third) have had previous unremarkable pregnancies.
Most of my MC were at 9-10 weeks after 'successful' earlier scans, but when they were really looking carefully the embryos were behind dates, slow heartbeat etc. A more casual sonographer would likely have reported that as baby + heartbeat = all ok?
Lots of Coventry successes on the RMC thread, always willing to wave pom-poms for their treatment! I had a daughter last summer at the first attempt on their protocol, after 4 (3 consecutive) miscarriages.

Thank you, makes sense.
