First appointment?

Question

I had a miscarriage in my previous pregnancy around 4-5 weeks two years ago. Should I still mention it to my OBGYN at my 10 week appointment even though I didn’t go to the doctor or anyone during the miscarriage?

Answer

Of course you should. They may prescribe you with progesterone this time around. I would even call ahead of time and say you had a previous miscarriage early and would like to be seen earlier than 10 weeks.

Answer

It didn’t make a difference that I had 3 previous miscarriages. My new doctor still saw me at 8 weeks.

Answer

I had two miscarriages last year. One last March at 5.5 weeks and one in November at 8 weeks. They finally gave me progesterone suppositories this time. I'm 6 weeks now.

Answer

Yes mention it to them if they’re not aware and if you’d like to be seen earlier ask because most places won’t give it earlier than 8 weeks unless you ask. I had a miscarriage at 19 weeks and I’m pregnant now and called ASAP and made it seem very urgent I get in ASAP and I’ll be seen next week at 6 weeks

Answer

I’ve had 2 miscarriages—one just this past October at 7 weeks—and still am not being seen any earlier than 9 weeks in this pregnancy and didn’t have any early bloodwork done. Your current doctor or midwife is probably going to want your OB history including any previous births or miscarriages, but it often doesn’t mean they’ll treat your pregnancy any differently unless you had multiple losses in a row.
