miscarriage and ectopic pregnacy

[asamichan]

Hi, im asami. My first pregnancy is ectopic. And the second is miscarriage. But the miscarriage one doesnt have a baby in it. And i didnt know if there's a baby in my ectopic pregnancy. The doctor told me thatit's because of my blood. Im a b- and they said that i have a negative blood that's why i can't have a baby alive. What i should do? Im scared now because im pregnant for the third time. And its already 2 months. And im scheduled for a transvaginalultrasound. To see if i have a baby inside me. Im scared for the result. What if it has no baby. Im really really anxious. I hope that i can still conceive. Thnk you.

Dear Asamichan

I am very sorry for your losses.

With your 1st pregnancy it was ectopic, this pregnancy may have been successful, but because the pregnancy was in the fallopian tube, this is dangerous and the baby would not grow  due to the restrictions with being in ur fallopian tube, and can be life threatening for you also. See Link:

Your second pregnancy was a blighed ovum. See Info below:

A blighted ovum occurs when a fertilized egg implants in the uterus but doesn't develop into an embryo. It is also referred to as an anembryonic pregnancy and is a leading cause of early pregnancy failure or miscarriage. Often it occurs so early that you don't even know you are pregnant.

A blighted ovum causes about one out of two miscarriages in the first trimester of pregnancy. A miscarriage is when a pregnancy ends on its own within the first 20 weeks.

When a woman becomes pregnant, the fertilized egg attaches to the uterine wall. At about five to six weeks of pregnancy, an embryo should be present. At about this time, the gestational sac -- where the fetus develops -- is about 18 millimeters wide. With a blighted ovum, though, the pregnancy sac forms and grows, but the embryo does not develop. That's why a blighted ovum is also called an anembryonic pregnancy.
What Causes a Blighted Ovum?

Miscarriages from a blighted ovum are often due to problems with chromosomes, the structures that carry genes. This may be from a poor-quality sperm or egg. Or, it may occur due to abnormal cell division. Regardless, your body stops the pregnancy because it recognizes this abnormality.

It's important to understand that you have done nothing to cause this miscarriage and you almost certainly could not have prevented it. For most women, a blighted ovum occurs only once.
Signs of a Blighted Ovum

With a blighted ovum, you may have experienced signs of pregnancy. For example, you may have had a positive pregnancy test or a missed period.

Then you may have signs of a miscarriage, such as:

Abdominal cramps
Vaginal spotting or bleeding
A period that is heavier than usual:

You also mentioned about ur blood being negative. This an cause miscarriage. You need to get the Anti D injection.

Pregnant women who are Rhesus negative
may need to have Rh D immunoglobulin
(commonly called Anti-D) injections to
safeguard their babies. This brochure gives
you information about Rh D and the need for
Anti-D injection.

When u have ur next appointment ask for this to be arranged.

Your 1st miscarriage, would not be linked to ur negative blood type, and if u lost ur 2nd pregnancy before 12 weeks, that would also wouldn't be because of ur blood type, because the mothers and baby blood does not mix until 13-14 weeks. I was told this by the head/senior doctor at the hospital, early blighted ovum are not a chromsome error, this is normally a ramdom error and normally does not happen again.

Hopefully all should be fine with this pregnancy, and I wish u all the luck and happiness in the world.

I have also had 2 miscarriages last year and I have no children, am told it's very bad luck. I have paid privately for loads of testing and all was clear, apart from one which was borderline, but the doctor said this wouldn't have caused my miscarriages. However the results were fine, so was told it was really very bad luck.

It's such a painful experience.

Congrats on ur pregnancy and let us all know when u have ur beautiful baby, we all love a success story.

My blood is negative and I have 2 children and am pregnant again all that's different is you needs the shot in your hip throughout pregnancy anytime you spot or bleed at all if you don't get it your body can build up antibodies to fight off the blood which is your baby so essentially your body starts fighting off your own baby. Hope this helps :) good luck
