Do I belong here?

Here is a little background. We started TTC back in late 2008. I got pregnant with my first after a few months. Sadly that pregnancy ended in a chemical pregnancy. I got pregnant again and had a healthy uncomplicated pregnancy. That pregnancy was in 2009 and my DD was born in jan 2010. We decided we wanted to have another child. Again after only a few months of trying I got pregnant in December of 2012. Sadly I had a natural miscarriage. I had a gestational sac that measured at 5w3d and miscarried at 6w1d. I got pregnant again in February. I saw a heartbeat 2 weeks ago at 6w3d. Yesterday I went in again and no heartbeat and still measuring at 6w6d. I have a d&c scheduled for tomorrow morning. Clearly I don't have an issue getting pregnant but after 3 losses staying pregnant is difficult. Would you start testing with your OB? Call and get a RE appointment? I know something has to be wrong. Thanks so much for thoughts and/or advice. If I really should be on a different board please let me know. Thanks ladies.

  • First of all, I am so sorry you have gone through all of this.  Many of us have had multiple losses, and they are each devastating.  I've had four myself, and it's tough.

    I would recommend talking to your OB and see if they think you sh

  • First I am so sorry for all the losses you have been through... I agree that it could be early to assume you have infertility issues if you are able to get pregnant as frequent as you are... However, I would definitely consult with doctors so they can run
  • I am so sorry for your losses! I would talk to both your OB & consult with a RE. It would help to get a couple of opinions as many drs feel differently about RPL testing! My RE actually had me consult with a MFM as well to talk about using lovenox
