3rd time unlucky :(

i'm so sad at the moment...just started my 3rd miscarriage image



i have a nearly two year old little boy so when he turned 1 we thought we start trying again and got pregnant the first month. I was literally pregnant for a week and then my period started so that was a chemical pregnancy. about 3 months later i was pregnant again with all the symptoms and got to 10 weeks when i had a tiny bit of spotting, went straight to hospital and as soon as they turned the scan on they lady told us it's not good news. she showed me the screen the sac was there but there was nothing in it!!!!! i was like, where on earth is the baby?? i never heard of blighted ovum, i can't believe your body can play such tricks on you...you go till nearly 12 weeks with feeling sick, bloated, nauseous....and with no baby there image as my body didn't want to miscarry naturally i had the D&C the same day as my 12 week scan was booked image

then we tried for a few months to get pregnant but it wasn't happening and i didn't understand why as i always caught so early then i worked it out!! after the operation noticed i hardly had any CM so we bought some preseed and first time trying it i got pregnant the third time....10 days I knew that i'm PG and then the spotting started again...i'm quite upset, can't believe it's happening again....i haven't even signed on to the due in forum and i'm glad i didn't. so the journey continues....hope it's 4th time lucky next time! sorry my post doesn't really make sense i just needed to get it out. thank you xxxx

  • Oh Hun, please don't rule yourself out just yet... I am on my 4th pregnancy after 3 recurrent miscarriages and about 6 weeks and 4 days I started bleeding.... First pink spotting then bright red blood then back to spotting..... I got an emergency scan the folowing day and mu bubba was just fine and I saw the heart beating image



    I totally expected that I was going through mc number 4 but so far so good. I know how difficult it is to be positive after previous losses but bleeding is not always a bad thing!!!



    I really hope this is not another mc for you... Everything crossed for a positive outcome for you x x
  • thanks for replying 3054 i was going to be in the same month as you x

    to be honest i wasn't even going to go to the doctor as i just thought this must be it but now reading your reply i probably will go...i do have quite a lot of bleeding but no pain which is quite strange but i'm preparing myself for the worst. the annoying thing is the doctors don't even count chemical pregnancies as miscarriages so they won't give any test image

    wishing you a happy and healthy rest of pregnancy hun and thanks again xxx
  • If I was you I would go to see gp.... Do a pregnancy test too, see if it is getting fainter, gp can do your hcg and see if it is still rising. I would count this as a chemical if indeed it is over as you have know about your pregnancy for ten days, that is too long for a chemical!!



    Hope they get you some answers, and if it is bad news please push for testing, I had to fight tooth and nail for my referral to liverpools womens hospital and they are a great support to me right know.



    You deserve some answers. Good luck x x
  • thanks hun i'll definitely go see my gp on monday and hopefully will get some answers soon xxx
  • Hey Hun how are you doing???? Has your bleeding stopped?? Did you take another test?? Or did you manage to get to see gp?? Hope your ok x
  • your post was so sad. I really feel for you and hope you aren't mc. As 3054 said, a lot of women can spot through pg but that doesn't make it any easier.



    Fingers crossed that baby is okay.
  • hi girls, well my bleeding was pretty heavy all weekend but i have quite bad periods anyway so it was just a little bit more, but funnily enough i wasn't really in pain at all. i took a test this morning and looks like the pregnancy is gone image i went to the docs today and first time ever they were really helpful....she told me to take a few months off (which i won't as it took me about 6 months to get this bfp, so i think that was a long enough break) and she told me that when i get pregnant again she will straightaway refer me to a specialist and they will monitor me. she said i don't need any test as she can see i'm ovulating and getting pregnant easily but obviously then the problems start so hopefully they will help me somehow. she said that it looks like the miscarriage is done as the test is negative even though i only had heavy bleeding for two days and that it went wrong really early on probably straight after finding out i'm pregnant as the hormones are already gone. i'm ok about it now as there was no baby yet, i just can't wait to start again!!! so hopefully soon ladies!!! thank you for your replies, at least i could tell someone....

    i told my mum today that i'm going to docs then i told her that i was pg again but only for a few days and she showed absolutely no sympathy or that she cares...upset me a bit image(( xxx
  • Oh nita i am so sorry to hear your news. It would be better if your hospital gp refers you now as they will need to carry out blood tests in your non pregnant state. Speak to your local epau to get a consultant to refer you to st Mary rmc inlondon . Feel free to come over to ttc after mc forum. Takecare x
  • thanks s-evans i was thinking that maybe my progesterone levels are low as i read that it can cause recurrent mc's but they tested that on day 21 of my cycle and she said they were perfect. are you from london? i'm from north london my little boy was born in uclh. i probably will pop over to the other forum thanks for the invite xxx
  • I think the 21 day test just checks if you have OV'd, and not your prog. levels.



    I am from Birmingham, but was referred to St Mary's after my 3 mcs by my birmingham hospital consultant at local EPAU department
  • hi nita sorry to here about you loss same here i have had 4 miscarages in the last year keep u chin up
  • Hello, i know this post is really old but I'm going through the same thing this is going to be my 3rd miscarriage in a row I don't have any children and I start spotting them it gets heavier and I'm afraid it will be like this this time too, would you have menstrual cramps when you bled?
