Two miscarriages in a row. Advice?

Question

I just found out I had my second miscarriage. Last time I found out at 9 weeks that I had a blighted ovum, this time at almost 9 weeks there was an embryo but no heartbeat. 
My doctor said I'm just unlucky, but I can't help but think something is wrong with me or my husband. Has anyone had successful pregnancies after two miscarriages? Or is there any recommended testing or something I can do to avoid this pain again? My doctor wasn't very helpful and I'm extremely sad and frustrated.

Answer

It's OK and you will feel like something is wrong but if there was the doctor would've said so by now after a second miscarriage I'm sure they ran all kinds of testes but it's going to be OK I've been through it myself and I took a break to get my head rite to get in shape and healthy inside and out physically and mentally and next thing you know I'm pregnant now I'm 21weeks along with my baby girl so just relax take it easy and live life it will happen do try so hard ok good luck and God bless

Answer

Me! I had two miscarriages. One natural miscarriage and one ectopic. I heard his little heart beat, seen his little buds as arms and feet. Very shortly after I miscarriage 💔 and my second one, my baby grow in my fallopian tube, causing me to bleed internally, had to have emergency surgery 💔. I then told myself, maybe having another baby isn't meant. Nope! I was wrong, 8 months later, I got pregnant. I'm 35 weeks now. Just let it happen, the moment I stopped stressing and trying, it happened. One thing I learned was, I knew it in my heart. What do you mean? When I got pregnant with the first two, I felt something wrong in my heart, can't explain it but once I got pregnant with this one, I knew this one was going stick. I just knew...wishing you and hubby the best. 💙💜

Answer

I had two last year. I am currently 14 weeks and 6 days. I've had 5 miscarriages all together. I went through all the expensive procedures to try to figure out what was wrong and they couldn't find anything. The doctor ruled it that there was just chromosomal defects of the baby's that I was not able to carry, another doctor mentioned that my body had an allergic reaction to the pregnancies. I had my 5 year old at 28 weeks.

Answer

I'm sorry for your losses. I should have gave you a little more advice instead of my personal story. I had started eating better and excercising 30 minutes a day. I made sure to continue taking prenatal vitamins. I also asked my husband to stop smoking and to stop soda intake so that way we would have a better chance. I would give yourself more time as far as the testing goes. The procedures are expensive. Have you had ultrasounds with any of losses.

Answer

I had two very early miscarriages.  My doctor told me to continue the prenatal vitamins and suggested low dose aspirin daily.  Fast forward a year...new doctor said stay on aspirin,  said progesterone was slightly low. We intended to start an ultra low dose of clomid for a boost but we got pregnant first!  I'm 24 weeks now.  Don't give up,  my grandmother had 6 miscarriages and 5 healthy babies.  Stay positive,  and maybe ask the doctor about the low dose aspirin,  or to check your progesterone levels.  That was as easy as some carefully timed lab work.

Answer

I had 3 miscarriages turns out I needed progesterone which I had to go to a fertility clinic to get because my dr wouldn't give it to me. I got on that for 10'weeks and I have a beautiful 16 month old daughter.

Answer

Ask to be checked for MTHFR. I also had two miscarriages and that ended up being my issue. From my research, folic acid is terrible for it and some people end up taking a baby aspirin or get prescribed other blood thinners. My old doctor prescribed me extra folic acid bit after my research I didn't take any of the folic acid. I switched to a natural prenatal that had folate and started taking a baby aspirin every day. And I just found out I'm pregnant so Monday I start seeing a high risk doctor.
