Thanks for responding to my post and for your thoughts.

I am interested to know where you found and read the literature about women most often m/c their first preg and that is is usually a male. I am a nurse, and have been trying to read all I can on this, and have not come upon this info. It is somehow a bit reassuring.......but also interesting.

Do you remember where you read/heard that info? If so, I would love the info. If not, no biggie.....

thanks again....

Yeah I am kind of bad about remembering my sources, but I will definitely dig around for you. There have been a few studies about how male embryos are weaker than female embryos and then other studies showing correlations between women who have son's are more likely to miscarry etc.  Then of course the studies about how you are more likely to miscarry your first child etc. 

I'll look ok...

Here are a few linking miscarriage to being underweight/overweight, and having a boy first.  I have yet to find the article about about first pregnancies maybe it was just wishful thinking or something.  I will keep looking though.
