2 blighted ovum pregnancies NOT in a row???

[Lilyb]

I want to know what are the chances of having two blighted ovums NOT in a row? I know the chances of having blighted ovums twice in consecutive pregnancies are slim, but what are the chances that someone experience them twice generaly? I am 34 years old, had blighted ovum last year. Then got pregnant, there was a baby but had a MC for other reasons,. Know I am pregnant again, but since I dont have symptoms I am worried that this one is Blighted ovum too!
Please advise.
Thanks

This is an old question from 2007.

I sufferd a blighted ovum in Dec 08, or Jan 09 is when it really ended. I am now pregnant again, 6 weeks tomorrow. I went in for an 2 ultrasounds already within 3 days of eachother, the first being at 5 wks exactly. My hcg is rising nicely but within both ultrasounds there was only a sac. I am too petrified that I am suffering another blighted ovum. I am trying to remain positive and from what I read its very uncommon to have them again, whether it be back to back or later on; its a fluke thing.
The doctor I seen said that my levels were too high and increasing really well so it couldnt be the same thing.
I hope not!
I am trying to avoid any other ultrasounds until I know that a fetal pole or yolk sac should be seen, I've been reading the misdiagnosed miscarriage page on blighted ovums and some have not been  and baby showed up at 10-11 weeks.

Good luck to you

I had a pregnancy that ended as the result of blighted ovum and my OB told me that generally once you've had one it's very rare to have another.  He said that a pregnancy may still end in miscarriage b/c of other reasons tho.  I'll say try not to worry, but I know that's hard.  It's ok not to have any symptoms every pregnancy is different.  Think about it like this...all of those symptoms could mean something is wrong, and as long as you feel great, you're carrying a healthy baby!  Hope this helps.
