Has anyone had more than one unsuccessful pregnancy and went on to have a healthy baby?

My husband and I have been trying for two years to have a baby, in which we have gotten pregnant twice. Unfortunately, neither pregnancy made it. The first pregnancy which was with a little boy we named Zane, at 19 weeks, we found out that he had a sever brain disease known as semi-lobar holoprosensephly. This means that he was born without the front part of his brain. Our doctors said that more than likely he would die within the first 30 hours of his life and that if he got the slim chance to live, he would be a vegetable for the rest of his life, completely reliant on tubes with no emotion or sense of anything. He was blind and deaf as well. We were advised to abort the pregnancy due to everything that was wrong not to mention the complications that it would cause with me. With the second pregnancy,  at 18 weeks, we went to our specialist to make sure that what happened last time, didn't happen again. We discovered that it had not, but that something else had went wrong, the baby had no heartbeat. We had went to my regular doctor's on July 2nd and everything was fine. By July 9th when we went to the specialist, he had died. We named him Sylar. When I delivered him, his cord was wrapped around his body and neck. Currently, this is the known cause of death but because of what happened previously and then this, my husband and I are going through all kinds of genetic testing. No results have been given yet. I was curious if this had happened to anyone else, mainly the holoprosenphly. There is not much information on this particular disease that I have been able to find.

I'm sorry for your losses.

I lost 3 babiesin between my 2 children.  

But with my losses they were due to a condition that I had.  Prothombin Gene Mutation which is a blood clotting disorder.

Once they figured it out I was put on medication to help ensure my son's arrival.

A friend of mine lost 2 babies around the same time you did, unfortunately for her....there was never any conclusive evidence in either case.

She had 1 child prior to this and 2 children after her losses.

Hopefully someone can give you a definitive answer that you are looking for.

I've had 3 misscarriages in the last 4 years (my first when I was just 17), we didn't know the causes of this because no testing was done as they were passed naturally early in the pregnancy and then just 8 months ago I gave birth to my first baby, a little girl who we named Taneile. However we were seeing a gyno for this pregnancy as per previous losses and I was put on Progesterone suppositories 200mg twice a day from the first 6 weeks of pregnancy to 14 weeks.
I hope you get your miracle soon.
