Im sorry for your lost. I have had 2 losses in the last year one at 14 weeks and the other at 10. after thw 2nd my dr tested my progestron levels and then put me on progestron. I dont know if that was really what helped but im now 16.2 weeks and everything looks good. Keep your head up, its one of the hardest things ive ever been through. I joined chat groups and it seemed to help talking with people going through the same thing.

I would get your thyroid levels checked...i had a miscarriage in dec 2011 and they found out my levels were high.  They think that is what "helped" cause it.  Hope you find something out...sorry for your loss

I'm sorry for your losses, unfortunatley they dont usually do any testing until you have had 3 miscarriages, but you can go to your doctor and ask for some blood tests done to check everything, sometimes it can be as simple as a deficincy in vit D or something similar, also get a pap test and ask them to check for a bacteria that can live in your vagina and can cause reocurrant miscarriage if its not treated, also if you can afford it a few visits to an acupuncturist can do wonders and help you get a healthy linning in your uterus, just incase thats the problem

got get tested for the RH factor: If you are Rh-negative, you may develop antibodies to an Rh-positive baby. If a small amount of the baby's blood mixes with your blood, which often happens, your body may respond as if it were allergic to the baby. Your body may make antibodies to the Rh antigens in the baby's blood. This means you have become sensitized and your antibodies can cross the placenta and attack your baby's blood. They break down the fetus's red blood cells and produce anemia (the blood has a low number of red blood cells). This condition is called hemolytic disease or hemolytic anemia. It can become severe enough to cause serious illness, brain damage, or even death in the fetus or newborn
