May 7, 2017 at 6:26 amI'm in the processes of my second missed miscarriage. We found out we were pregnant one year EXACTLY to the date as last year. We lost this baby the same time as last year as well. It seems like at 7w4d the heartbeat stops. They are going to do the pregnancy loss panel on me now that I've had 2 missed miscarriages . Did anyone else have this happen to them? Did your Dr. Figure out why it was happening?

This second pregnancy was with IVF and we have one embryo left. I haven't started to bleed heavy yet I've just been spotting for 2 weeks.

Just curious if anyone had a similar situation.

Baby dust to all.

May 10, 2017 at 8:32 pmMy musscareiages were caused by a blood clotting disorder. It's autoimmune called antiphospholipid antibody syndrome. It's takes time for some of the testing to come back. They can do genetic testing for mthfr genes as well. I hope they can give you answers and answers they can over come.

May 22, 2017 at 7:30 amI had 1 MMC at 7 weeks, never heard a heart beat, and 1 MC at 20 weeks, baby died (heart stopped). What I understand at 7 weeks is that is is most likely chromosomal. Since you are doing IVF, were your embrios tested for genetic abnormalities? I know this significantly reduces the risk of MC. If not, its like any pregnancy, and MC happens like 25% of the time. Also age dependent, I'm 39 so higher risk of MC. I would talk to your RE and see if there are any health patterns they can detect, orsend you for testing at endochrinologist, rheumatologist. I also saw a hemotologist who diagnosed me with MTHFR (I don't process synthetic folic acid). What I do now is take baby aspirin, and l-methylfolate (natural form of folate) and lots of vitamins & supplements. If you want more details, just ask.

May 23, 2017 at 10:05 amThanks ladies. I'll be getting the pregnancy loss screening which tests everything! We will see what that shows . I'll be taking the summer off from ttc and I'll be changing my diet by reducing my sugar, gluten, and dairy intake to see if that helps at all.

No chromosomal testing was done this time I'm 31 and my hubby is 33 so we are getting to that age where testing may be a good option for us if we do IVF again.

Baby dust to all!

June 13, 2017 at 6:06 amHi All, Same happened to me . fter 2 I decided I was not going to wait for the third loss so I demanded tests and it came out that I had MTHFR disorder. Blood clotting. I am now on Clexane and aspirin daily as I am 10 weeks pregnant. Im scared to death about this pregnancy and every doctor appointment is a nightmare. I have heard the heartbeat at 7 weeks by a transabdominal scan but still................... Hopefully with the clexane injections and aspirin we will all be able to have miracles !Please get checked and demand tests

June 13, 2017 at 6:27 pmKaren that's so exciting you are 10 weeks! I just did my first round of bloodwork and my AMH level is 8 which is consisdered having PCOS so that's news to me being i am actually under weight for my height and not that hairy of a person LOL! I also have never been told I have ovarian cysts at all. The next bloodwork will be the pregnancy loss panel that will check for clotting disorders.I started taking DHEA and vitamin D on top of my prenatal to see if that helps at all so we will see. Best of luck to you and that growing bundle of joy!!

I am really sorry to see you in problem. Miscarriage is a really very big problem and miscarriage again and again made to suffer more. I can’t even imagine how you are feeling after your second miscarriage. When you have baby in your tummy it felt great but after you suffer from miscarriage, then you start missing your baby. I am saying this because I also had one miscarriage but in my case soon after that I became pregnant again. Now, I am a mommy of 1 year old baby boy. Don’t take tension, everything will be fine soon. Sometimes, failure comes again and again and breaks our hope. It is the dream of every woman to give birth to a child. But, nowadays so many miscarriages are happening. This forum is also filled with much miscarriage news. This is a good forum where you can write your heart out and relieve the pain of not sharing with someone. Sharing your grief with someone will let you forget the mishap soon. All the best for your future!
