I just found out today that I’ve had my third MMC in a row.
We had an ultrasound at 6+3 - heartbeat and all looked good. Went back today at 9+3 to find out embryo stopped growing around 8 weeks and there was no heartbeat. This time I tried acupuncture, myself and my husband both took Proceive for around 3 months, and I took ubiquinol. I also took low dose aspirin from positive test and progesterone from 6+3. The first ultrasound did show 8mm fluid in the pouch of Douglas but it wasn’t mentioned and I understand that’s relatively normal.
My first MMC was found at a private scan in July 2024, I was supposed to be around 9 weeks, measuring just under 5 with no heartbeat. I had an MVA.
My second one was in November 2024, again found at a private scan, exactly the same situation as first time, and I had another MVA.
After my second miscarriage I was referred to the Recurrent pregnancy loss clinic. All they’ve done so far was some bloods in January all of which look fine, although I am yet to have a proper consultation with the consultant. They have agreed to send this third loss for testing and I have asked my GP for a referral to Tommys.
I have a 2 year old girl and that pregnancy was uneventful - she was a happy surprise and everything went smoothly.
I am 38 and my husband is 43 so I know time is not on our side.
I feel heartbroken today and have lost hope that I will ever give my child a sibling.
Has anyone else been in a similar situation and gone on to have a healthy pregnancy? I am scared we have run out of time.
