Anyone have 6 miscarriages and had a successful pregnancy?

I found out yesterday I am having my 6th miscarriage and they are going to do a D&C sometime next week but we aren’t sure when.  They have to wait for the Lovenox to get out of my system before they can operate.  (

Has anyone had 6 losses and gone on to have a successful pregnancy?

I have Factor Leiden V, MTHFR, and elevated FSH.  If this baby comes back as abnormal I will do IVF with donor eggs.  If the baby comes back normal I have no clue what to do.



Losses:

1st: Aug 2006 Blighted Ovum (passed on my own)

2nd: Jan 26th Blighted Ovum (D&C)

3rd: Oct 2007 (missed miscarriage after seeing heartbeat) had D&C

4th: Dec 2008: spontatnous m/c (passed on my own)

5th: May 2009: chemical pregnancy

6th: Oct 2009: Missed miscarriage (saw heartbeat at 6 weeks 3 days)

I didn’t tell anyone I was pregnant.  It was a complete surprise and when I found out I just wanted to wait and see if this one would stick. Only my parents knew about this pregnancy and a few close friends. We saw a heartbeat at 6 weeks 3 days.  Yesterday I went back for a routine follow up ultrasound at 8 weeks 5 days and found out the baby died a week and ½ ago.  So this is my 6th miscarriage and my 2nd missed miscarriage as I didn’t have any symptoms to indicate anything was wrong.  (and I still don’t)  I should know more on Monday when they are going to schedule me for surgery.  



This will be my 3rd D&C so I pretty much know what to expect afterwards. So tired of this ****.  Why do I keep getting pregnant if I can’t carry at least one to term?  



I just don't understand why this keeps happening. 6 pregnancies 0 live births. Why do I keep getting pregnant if I can't keep them. It’s so unfair :(  I'm so tired of this emotional roller coaster. I'm nauseas right now too. that's the worst part. I still feel pregnant and the baby has been dead for almost 2 weeks :(  It such a horrible feeling.  I'm so tired of letting DH and my parents down. So glad I didn't tell many people.

My DH and I just adopted our daughter in July.  I'm so thankful I have her.  She makes this loss easier to handle


BTW: DH means Dear Husband

So.... as with all the others, I have lost the pregnancy. That is #7 now. 4th one in a year. They had me on Lovenox (80 mg), Progesterone and baby asprin. Now what? I feel like we are running out of options. I'm just so sad and frustrated.

Thanks for the well wishes. I hope this one works out. Its just been devastating. I have a Dr appt tomorrow so I'm going to ask some questions. I'm not currently on the baby asprin but will look into that. I will keep everyone updated. Thanks again for the thoughts.

I am hoping that pregnancy number 7 works out for you.    Are you also on Baby Aspirin along with the Lovenox?  I just had my 7th miscarriage on May 5th :(  This was a chemical pregnancy.  My first HCG was 59 and the second HCG 4 days later was 37.  They are telling me it is my egg quality and that I should use donor eggs.  I don't have that kind of money to put towards IVF with egg donation to MAYBE get pregnant and MAYBE carry to term.  It's hard enough miscarrying when I get pregnant on my own, imagine miscarrying after spending 20K? :( I still feel one day I will carry to term naturally.  I hope and pray I'm right.


Sending many prayers your way and sticky baby dust. Please keep us updated.

I have also had 6 miscarriages and am now currently pregnant with my 7th pregnancy, only 4 1/2 weeks along at this point. I also have had all the tests done, chromosones, etc., all my tests have come back normal except one. I have been told that I am Protien C Deficient and therefore am on Lovenox in hopes that it will help me carry to term. I was also on Lovenox on my last pregnancy and made it one week longer than I usually do when I miscarry. I miscarry between 5 and 7 weeks each time. I'm so worried for this one. If it doesn't work out again this time, what do I do? Anyone have suggestions??

I had a m/c in early Jan 2010 & since then found out I have 2 mutations of MTHFR.  The RE put me on folbic acid but I am taking it upon myself to also see a hemotolgist (Blood DR) just because I want to see what he thinks about all my results.  RE know a good amount but a hemotolgist is a speicalist in blood.
