3 miscarriage in one year

[Ms.Masta]

HI, I am a 23 year old with 1 child age 4.I and my husband been wanting a childfor a year until last june 05, I had my first miscarriage on my dauther birthday, june 18th, I wasa 5 weeks. again i got pregnant. 6 week this time, had an miscarriage in aug. of 05. I waited 3 months to get pregnant in nov 05. untill I was 17 weeks. I lost my baby boy in march 06. the 1st and 2nd miscarriage were abnormal, my 3rd miscarriage was unknown the reason. the test from the baby came back negative, I had a test and everything were negative, as far as i know I had an small infection that was causing me to cramp and it was too late to be treated when my water broke. I want to have another baby, how long should I wait and will I have another miscarriage? I am scared to death that I might lose my life if this happen again, because my great grandmother passaway for the same thing happen to me and she was 24. ANY OPINONS????

hi! i am sorry for your loss. has your dr did a lupus test on you? my two aunts and grandmother have lupus and my one aunt had 4 m/c before she finally carried her first one full term and then she had 3 m/c in between carrying her 2nd one full term. i had a m/c in april and my dr is going to test me next month for lupus. when you have lupus you have to take baby asprin everyday when you are p and i am not sure what else but with lupus your body fights off the baby kind of like it is an infection instead of nurishing it and helping it grow. i would just try again when the dr says it is time. i would not think you would loss your life as long as you are under good dr care. things are so much better now and better treatment then when your grandmother was having children. you are still young and have lots of time left to have kids so let the time be right for you and your husband. i wish you the best of luck.

i have been pregnant 5 times out of that i have 2 children i had three miscarriages the most recent one was on thursday i was 10 weeks pregnant i had a bit of bleeding so i went to the hospital and had a scan and there was no heart beat. i went back on friday for a D&C. but i do think you are a lot stronger than me because i do want another baby but i dont think i could try again. because i would always have that doubt in my mind. any way good look for next time

Hi

Im really sorry to hear about what happened to you guys.

Ms Masta, Like Suzie said I dont think ul lose ur life as things are a lot better these days, and Im not sure what a lupus test is but I think u should take her advice and find out about it, it may help even if just to rule it out. I think personally maybe wait a little before trying again so u can recover emotionally and phycially. Did the dr tell you how long to wait? I know with me when I lost mine I wanted to try straight away which I did, but maybe with you letting ur body rest may help your chances? Maybe u feel getting pregnant will help u emotionally, which it might but I still think have a rest.

And Shelley, I know what u mean about being scared. Every time I was pregnant I worried alot. I dont know what to say, except maybe be brave and have faith.

The best of luck to the both of you.
