Pregnant but no baby developed

[Mpsbbymomma]

Ok, Im new here and I hope I get some answers. I had a healthy baby boy when I was 16 after that I got on the ortho evra patch birth control for 4 yrs 1/2, now im 23 yo and ive had 2 mc, ive been trying for 2 years now, I had a d and c 3 weeks ago I was 11 wks, the doc said that baby didnt develop, all I had inside was blood cloths. Im so confuse I dont know what to do, I want to try again but im scared to go thru antother mc, could the birth control I took at such a young age for years be causing this to me?

yes go and get some blood work done, it could be very simple and easy to fix, sometimes your lacking in b vitamins or even vit d, make sure they check for this with your blood work as lacking in these two vitamins can cause miscarriage as well, good luck

I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. I also had a difficult time getting pregnant and even one miscarriage myself.
I had some bloodwork done to make sure there wasn't another reason behind it other than "the baby didn't develop", but every time I asked for tests, my doctors would blow me off because I was young and shouldn't have any issues.
I finally found a doctor who would listen to me and sure enough, I had some issues! I had a thyroid issue and something called MTHFR. Both were a very simple fix and I am now 19 weeks pregnant.
So my point is, if you have already had 2 losses, I think it might be time to look into having some bloodwork done and maybe even a new doctor.
I hope that helped and best of luck!

I'm really sorry about your losses.  i don't know if bc has anything to do with miscarriages. Personally, I wouldn't think so because so many people use bc.  I'm wondering if your doctor will do any kind of testing to see if there is a reason for the m/c's??  I understand about being scared to try again.  Miscarriages are so devestating and I hate that anyone has to go thru that.  Again, I'm really sorry.
