Help
After 8 yrs of trying to conceive, on December 9, 2011, I miscarried My husband and I were devastated. We continued to try and conceive. On September 27, 2013 we found out we were pregnant again. We were excited. On October 28,2013 I miscarried again at 9wks3dys. Both miscarriages were due to a blighted ovum. So my question is what are the chances of that happening to me again...DEVASTATED!!
Hello Tomarra
I am so sorry to hear of ur 2 losses. I sadly experienced 2 missed miscarriages in a row lasy year and it was very heart breaking for me.
Most miscarriages at least 80 per cent are due to errors with the chromosomes at the time of conception and nothing can be done to prevent this from happening, and no-one is to blame. There are also other factors to consider such as:
Low progestrone levels. You will need a simple blood test and this will confirm if ur levels are within the correct range. see links:

I would also suggest you take 1 x 85mg of baby asprin per day once pregnant. The blood when pregnant becomes thicker and blood clots can form, so the asprin will thin ur blood and prevent this from happening. I do not have a blood clotting problem, but my doctor says it wont hurt to take it, and the low is low, so wouldn't do any harm, speak to ur doctor, but most doctors are fine 4 you to take it.
You could also get your thyriod checked, this can also lead to miscarriages, if ur levels are low, so i would suggest a blood test to check this.
I hope my info has been helpful and feel free to ask me any questions.
