just had a miscarriage at 9 weeks, concerned

I'm 38 years old and just had a miscarriage 3 days ago.  I had a D & C because I wanted to make sure everything got cleaned out.  I'm so concerned b/c I was doing everything right!  Taking prenatals, calcium, a baby aspirin b/c I have the MTHFR gene, folic acid, and slow Fe iron.  This was my third pregnancy.  I hope I can get answer as to why this happened.  There was a heartbeat since week 7.  I just can't understand it.  This is my 3rd miscarriage.  I have 2 boys, 5 and 2.  I would love to have a baby girl!  My stepdaughter would really love that so much (she is 15).  Where should I start now.  I really would love to try again!

So sorry to hear this, sweetie. Sometimes there is just no logical answer.
Have you and hubby been tested thoroughly?  Ar you doing this natural or with help?

Keep trying, do not give up. A little angel will makes it's way to you in no time.

I am so sorry for you and your husband. It sounds like you are taking great care of yourself. I hope your doctor can give you the answers you are looking for but when it happened to me they never could. I tried to find comfort in the fact that my baby is in heaven and God takes them for a reason. I am including you in my prayers and am sending you much sticky baby dust!!! God bless
