what point in your life did you miscarry?

I was wondering about all of you who have had miscarriages multiple or single.  

when you miscarried did you already have a child?  (live full term)

was this your first miscarriage?

I guess I'm wondering why????  Why me?  why us?  when this happens numerous times to a woman, does that woman ever have other full term babies?

I feel terrible for all of you who have experienced this multiple times.   I have a 4yr old now, and just miscarried at 13 weeks.  what are the chances of this happening again?  I'm becomming really scared that I won't have another chance.

for those of you who have had more than one, what does your doctor say?

How much medical reasearch have they done on this?  So many of us are suffering broken hearts.

I became pregnant when i was 17yrs old and had my daughter when i was 18yrs old. I had her about 4 weeks and a couple of days early but she was perfectly heatlhy. I was on birthcontrol until december of 2007. As of january 2008 no more birthcontrol, but we were still avoiding. well January 13,2008 was my last period and also the first month we were TTC. And to our happy surprise got my BFP on february 15th, the day after valentines day. Wend to my firs appt the following week and saw my babys heart beat, when i went back on 03/20/09 the dr coudn't find a heartbeat.found out the baby had stopped growing and had a DNC. We have been trying ever since and hope we are blessed with our little miracle soon. Good luck to all you lovely ladies!!!!

1 m/c, no children

My uncle (a dr) has said to both my sister (who also had a m/c with 1st pregnancy, an accident so hasn't tried again) and I, that every time the sells divide, or every second the baby grows, the body is doing a check list. If there is a cross on the list rather than a tick, then there is something not right, which is why we have to go through the horrible experience of miscarriage.

Also 1 in 3 pregnancies end with m/c, which is still no comfort to those of us going through the pain.

Good luck to all of you x x

My miscarriage(which was recently) was my first pregnancy. I had been on birth control for 5 years and it took us a little less then a year of trying to get pregnant. We were so excited. But i had a gut feeling it would not come to term. I started spotting at only 3 weeks which lasted for two weeks. Everyone told me it was normal and not to worry but how could i not????? I had an ultrasound at 4 weeks and it looked fine but no heartbeat as it was too early. So I had another ultrasound at 5 and half weeks and there was my little guy with a heartbeat. At about 9 weeks I had a huge blow out with my mother because my family couldnt keep their mouths shut about the pregnancy when I specifically asked them to wait to tell the news( because of my gut instinct) until I was at least 12 weeks. Later that night I started spotting again. I had an emergency ultrasound the next day and there was no heartbeat. So my Dr. wanted to wait a few days and sent me for another u/s. Everyone told me that it happens all the time that they cant see the heartbeat sometimes and that I was spotting because of a cyst I had on my left ovary. I had stopped spotting by then so I was becoming somewhat hopeful but sure enough when I went for the second u/s my baby was dead. I carried for 2 more days before the process actually started which had to been completed by way of a D and E. Its been the most painful experience ever and I am just dying to know why it happened but there are no answers. So much pain, physically and emotionally, and so much money for doctors and hospital expenses and nothing to show for it. But I really like to believe that my baby is in heaven. I pray for all of us that have gone through this. I know there has to be a reason even if we cant and dont know why.
