Recurrent Loss Appointment

I'm just hoping for some experiences and advice.
I've been pregnant 3 times but no live children yet. DS was stillborn at 32 weeks (trisomy 13 was the cause) and I've had two miscarriages, one early and one a mmc at 8 weeks over the summer.
The recurrent mc doctor has agreed to see me given my history which I am very thankful for. I have my appointment next week.
I'm in NI so I know the appointment may differ geographically, but can anyone tell me what to expect at the appointment?
Thank you

At the first appointment it was just a chat, they just went through my history and arranged blood tests (they need to be done at a certain point in your cycle), and a blood test for and clotting issues. They also took bloods from my husband later on to karyotype test.

Thank you for your reply. That's good to know that it could well be a chat to start things off.
