Do miscarriages run in your family?

Question

Just curious if that can carry down through generations (ie if mom had trouble concieving and had a miscarriage). Does that mean you are prone to miscarriages as well? (Comment for that question)

Answer

Things like Endometriosis and PCOS can sometimes run in the family, but honestly, many women have miscarriages. Sadly, conceiving isn't just a miracle on an emotional level, it's also a miracle on a scientific level, which means sometimes things take time.

Answer

I am not sure scientifically, but my mom had about 4 and two of my older sisters have had 1 each. I am TTC and am having issues that they never had.

Answer

I don't think so my mom only lost one baby back when I was in high school as far as I know... She was 5 months pregnant when she had a miscarriage she was pregnant with my baby sister but that was a long time ago I've been out of school for almost 8 years now but like I said as far as I know she only had one miscarriage...

Answer

My mom didn't. My grandmother had one, and all of my aunts (all 6) have had at least one. One of them has had 7. I have had 5. We all have MTHFR mutations. My aunt that has seven and I are compound hetero. I also have hypothyroidism and APS.

Answer

My mom had three all in the second trimester. I just had my first child and in the 5 months it took to conceive I didn't have any problems, but my mom had four kids across 11 years so it could still happen to me.

Answer

My grandmother had 17 children along with 5 miscarriages.

Answer

My aunt and I both have the same thing endo she has a Misscarge and a ectopic pregnancy and I have Has one in the same order but she did have 3 healthy baby's after that but I am still recovering from my ectopic pregnancy

Answer

My grandmother had 1,and she had about 11 kids in total. My mother had 1 she didn't even know about .

Answer

I'm the only one in my family to have had one 😢 but they were very supportive!

Answer

My great grandma had 2 my grandma had 0 my mom had 1 and I haven't had one as of yet and hope I never do. My moms older sister had never had a miscarriage but her little sister has had 6. Do I think it's genetic? No I really don't think so unless there is a medical condition that can cause them.
