Monica_in_Switzerland Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 This is rambling, but I just need to put it out there. I had ds, miscarriage, dd, miscarriage, missed miscarriage. After 5 months and 3 periods, my missed miscarriage has finally cleared itself out, and we are trying again for a third. This is suddenly scary. I'd love to hear of any success stories after two miscarriages in a row. Thanks! Monica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishmommy Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I had a ds, missed miscarriage, then a death after birth, then my miracle dd, then the icing on the cake ds. My key was to up, up, up my vitamin intake. Emotionally, the second dd (after the death of my first one) was terrifying, but I knew I was on the right track. I tried to break down the pregnancy into smaller "hurdles" - 1st 7 weeks, then 12, then 16 (with all the scary tests), then 18 weeks for my level 2 ultrasound, 24-25 weeks, then the home streach! My last one was a breeze until 37 weeks when I found out he was not in the right position. Then his birth was a little scary. But, all in all, I'd do EVERY. BIT. OF. IT. AGAIN to get my three little ones and my two angels. All worth it, even the heartache! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn&charles Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I had 3 m/c and then Otter (my big surprise)! I was very nervous during the pregnancy, but everything went along great. He really is a gift and God's timing was just right. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2J112903 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Success after 3 m/c just came into the room and asked me how to say hello in Chinese. :) I will pass your story on to my sister, whom has had 2 miscarriages back-to-back after a perfectly wonderful pregnancy with her daughter. She is looking for all the positive stories she can hold on to. OP-Sticky baby vibes and many prayers for a healthy pregnancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetMissMagnolia Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 we had a m/c on our first try for a pregnancy---I ended up switching drs and after a few months of us trying (charting) and nothing happening she put me on CLOMID. Luckily the first try worked for us but because of the first m/c and the timing of it (m/c around what would have been time for my period that month) I had to use hormone inserts for a few months---I don't think I relaxed until the 2nd trimester. good luck........

NCJessieRN Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I had four normal pregnancies and deliveries then had 3 mc since last April. I'm newly pregnant now paring this time will end with another baby. The dr. Did run some test after my second mc and found I had low progesterone. I will be saying prayers for you! I know how hard the emotional roller coaster can be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara in AZ Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Congratulations on your pregnancy! My mother had four pregnancies in 5 years then 2 miscarriages. Maybe her body was just tired. Who knows. She was eventually able to get pregnant with her last (at age 39) and the pregnancy was uneventful and the baby completely healthy. There is a gap of about 6 years between the older 4 kids and the last. I'm sure it will turn out well for you. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amy g. Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I had 3 children, then 2 miscarriages then another child and then another miscarriage. When I got pregnant again, I looked up the likelihood of having another child at age 43 after having 3 miscarriages. It was very low, but I'm holding that baby now, and she is as healthy as can be.

MamaT Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I had 3 mc between my third and fourth sons. We adopted our first daughter after our third miscarriage, started proceedings for our second daughter, and found out we were pregnant with fourth son! I had a normal, healthy pregnancy with him.

Sue G in PA Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 My first pregnancy was a m/c. Then I had dd. My next preg. was a m/c. Then I had my 4 boys (not all at once!) and my dd. After dd I had 3 miscarriages in a row. I was terrified. I went to a specialist who told me there wasn't anything wrong with me...it was just a "fluke". I then conceived ds and had a healthy pregnancy. We are now trying for one more and I haven't been able to conceive. Good luck to you.

Alphabetika Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I have not had a miscarriage, but I have a friend who had six miscarriages then a baby girl. They had adopted a girl shortly before, so they have two sweet girls who are four months apart. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
