2nd MMC

[michmoy]

I've just had my 2nd miscarriage - after losing one 2 years ago, we'd ttc all this time and finally got our bfp. As I had the last miscarriage, I went for a private early scan as a precaution (I'd not had any bleeding and still felt pregnant) only to find out it was too small for how far long I should have been. When i went back the following week for another scan, there was no heartbeat.

We really want to try again, but I'm so scared of it happening again. When we were at the hospital, it was agreed tests would be done on the foetus, but it was disposed of rather than being sent off to the clinic for testing, so we have no way of knowing what could have caused it, which doesn't help us to get over it

Realy sorry to hear this x

Michmoy, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have had 2 mcs this year and also feel nervous about it happening again, athough I am trying to remind myself that the vast majority of women who suffer multiple miscarriages do go on to have healthy babies. I haven't had any tests, as the hospital said they would only start tests if I have another mc. Not sure if others have had tests which just involved testing the parents? xx

Thanks pumpkin and scamperT - they are going to do blood tests on me and dh as well, but to have our foetus to also test might have shown us something - but we'll never know now. I'm so cross about it, as it was all on my file to ensure it was kept for tests - we've complained to the hospital, but it's not going to bring it back

Sorry - how rude of me not to reply to you, scamperT: I'm so sorry to hear of your loss too. I know what you mean about trying to remind yourself that other women go on to have healthy babies, but some days it's difficult isn't it? I have my fingers crossed for you in the future.

I am having the tests done, as we also had 1 at home, but it wasn't worth reporting, as i had a bfp, and then a few days later I started bleeding and got a bfn.
