Chances of success next pregnancy after 2 miscarriages?

[ntaylor]

I wonder if anyone has been in a similiar situation as me. I had one missed miscarriage (growth was slow, stopped at 9 weeks,heartbeat heard at 6), had a d and c in sep. I got pregnant after 2 cycles and it was apparentley a chemical pregnancy. I was on progesterone so I didn't start bleeding until 7 weeks, though there was only BARELY a sac in there, which only measured like 4 weeks. I should have just gotten a period, but the dang progesterone...

Anyhow, do you think these are at all related? Should I ask for testing before I try again? Did I get pregnant too early? They did do testing on the first baby and found nothing wrong. Does that mean theres something wrong with my body? I'm just so confused, and I don't want to go through another miscarriage without trying to find a cause. Is a chem pregnany common right after a d and c?

Thanks!

I had two mcs one in Sept 2004 (5 wks) never saw the baby, had a dnC, then the second on early feb 2005 (6 wks) once again never saw the baby.  The dr. was going to put me on progesterone if i got pregnant again which I did in July but never started the progesterone.  And I'll be 27 weeks pregnant wed.  They tested both the embryos/fetuses and other material and found nothing wrong.  I thought there was something wrong with me after the two losses and no previous children, but the dr and internet said that 1 out of every 4 pregnancy's ends in MC most of the time either unknown or for no apparent reason.  Good luck, It took me about three months between each of the losses to get pregnant, so maybe give yourself a month or two to get some fresh eggs.  But I guess I am proof that it can happen.

Hey,

I had 2 mc, one at 7 weeks, then I had a baby girl she is now 1 and a half, then I had another MC in Aug 06, at 10 weeks, baby had heartbeat and growth was at 6 wks but didnt make it.  I am now at 14 wks, and hoping for the best.  You will have a child, dont worry.  Sometimes these things happen bc our bodies work so well it will catch any flaw.

I know your pain, but it will make you stronger.

God Bless you.

I went through the exact same situation. I had a D & C at 10 1/2 weeks due to a missed MC at 9 weeks. Got pregnant aftre my next cycle and it turned out to be a chemical. My Dr. won't do testing until aftre the 3rd. I never got an explanation, but I did end up getting pregnant before the next cycle after my chemical and I am due with a baby boy on January 31st. Think Positive. (If you believe, God will never give you more than you can handle.)

Thank you so much.

Trentonsmom- Wow your situation sounds so much like my own. That gives me hope. I just keep thinking maybe it was too early after the d and c, but I had two normal afs, which made me believe my uterine lining was back to normal. I'm not sure, now I'm so nervous the plan my husband and I have is to wait until the summer. I want testing done, but we have crappy insurance and we're both students with not a lot of money. I'll be a nurse soon, but I doubt insurance will cover any testing even so. Maybe I should just go for it and keep trying, Im not sure... Anyhow, thanks for your comments. Congrats on your baby!! I pray you have a safe rest of your pregnancy and delivery. What a wonderful gift, you must be thrilled.

Well my story is like this well me and my fiancee's been trying TTC for awhile well this month my period was late 5 days late and then I started to bleed very heavy and blood clots well when I took an pregnancy test it said negative then i took pne a little after that and i don't know if it was positive or not because when i took it I look at it and only seen 1 line then like 4-5 min or so i look at it again and there was another line but was real fantish pink so i don't know whats going on my periods been irregular for the past 3 months so it's hard to say what was that about
