Intro into the TTTC land

edited April 2014 in Trouble TTC
I'm not quite sure where I belong right now, but this board feels to be the most appropriate for me at the moment. So a little about my story...my husband and I are both 27, married for two years and TTC since July of 2013. We actually don't have any issues getting pregnant, but I can never seem to keep them past 7-8 weeks gestation. I am just now recovering from my 3rd miscarriage with my d&c being yesterday. We don't have any children as of yet. I was referred to a RE after my second loss and found out I had a positive hpt the day of that first appointment. They did some of the RPL blood work with everything coming back normal. As the pregnancy progressed we discovered I have low progesterone and was put on endometrin, but it clearly wasn't the only issue because here I stand today with an empty womb. They are doing genetic testing on the baby and plan on doing karyotypibg for my husband and I. The RE also wants to take a look at my uterus after my first AF post d&c as she has a suspicion that my losses are caused by a uterine abnormality based on what she found when doing the d&c. I just hope to get some answers and solutions. Each step of this process is a little more overwhelming and heartbreaking, but as long as it means getting a healthy baby in the end it will all be worth it eventually. I'm sure I will have a bunch of questions as I am going through further testing and treatments. I can already tell from my time lurking that you are all very supportive and empathetic. I'm sorry that any of us have to call this place home, but I'm glad we at least have each other.
