Miscarriage and covid

[mummatara]

So I know there is understandably not a lot of research into this but I’m having a food for thought moment and wanted to know what other people think

A bit of background at 8 months pregnant in early 2021 I developed covid. 2 days after I started to feel better after being very rough for 2.5 weeks I developed obstetric cholestasis which is linked to stillbirth. I was induced early and had a healthy boy. I asked the doctor if covid could have caused it but she denied the possibility though realistically at the time when there wasn’t even a jab who can say.

Fast forward to 2022 I have had my jabs and booster. I fell pregnant in March and at 5 weeks I caught covid for a second time. My symptoms were not as bad as the first time and I recovered after a week. I lost the baby at 10 weeks which was a MMC we found out at our 12 week scan. I had surgical management in June and got a positive pregnancy test in August. Again I caught covid at 4.5 weeks and again symptoms not too bad. We went for a scan at 9 weeks to discover another MMC this one a blighted ovum.

I know the likelihood of Covid being the trigger for pregnancy problems is probably small but who really knows. I wanted to know others thoughts on it. Will be interesting to see where the research goes with it in the future

I had a scan at 6w3d on a Thursday where we saw a heartbeat and my daughter had Covid the following Monday. I had a +ve Covid test the next Saturday after two days of fairly mild illness. Previously I'd had covid last December after jabs & booster.

I had a MMC just after that scan and only found out last week at 9w2d scan. Gestationally they said it was 5-6 weeks so must have stopped developing just after the first scan.

We are getting genetic karyotyping carried out on the embryo as it was my 4th loss (I had 3 other losses between two successful pregnancies about 10 years ago). There are so many factors, it is hard to tell. It could have been low progesterone for me, autoimmune inflammation from being unwell?? or may have been genetic abnormality from my age (or a combination). The only way I can narrow down causes is to try doing day 2-5 bloods, AMH and see what comes back from the genetic tests, but even then I may just be making informed guesses.

I had MMC in July, I had covid when I was around 5 weeks and at the scan at what should been 9 weeks there was no heartbeat and the baby was measuring 6 weeks 4 days. I wish I knew if this was the cause x

I had covid when I was 6 weeks pregnant. Had no other symptoms, and went for a scan after some spotting. I should have been about 9 weeks but the pregnancy had stopped progressing at 6 weeks. They say it’s probably unrelated. I think that’s all rubbish and is what people are supposed to say to not scare people.

I had a MMC in July - discovered at 12 week scan. I had a scan at 9 weeks and all was well. Positive covid test just over a week later and felt really awful for about a week (previously had mild covid in Jan 2021, vaccinated last summer with booster beginning of this year). The pregnancy stopped developing at 10+4 and I’m convinced covid was the cause.

I realise I'm years late on this but I've always said covid was the cause of my miscarriages.
We had 3 blighted ovum (empty sac) pregnancies. The first, I had covid then fell pregnant that cycle, the second I had the jab whilst ovulating, and the third I did a positive pregancy test one sunday and had a positive covid test the sunday after. All were BO's.
I then fell pregnant for a fourth time and had a healthy baby boy - with no tinge of covid.
It cant be coincidence

I was recovering from Covid when I had my MC.
