Update to a lurker question :(

In my original post I had a question anout hearing the HB and then not be able to hear it.....someone rudely responded that it was my incapability to work the doppler...Thanks for those who replied 
I thought I would update. First I would like to say I DO know how to use my Doppler. The HB was between 168-174 both days, far from my HR which is usually in the 50's because I am a runner. With that said...I am only telling you this so you as women, will listen to your body. I went in today for my US. I was right to be alarmed. My baby has died, only in the last few days. I am almost 10 weeks. This will be our fourth miscarriage. We waited this last time, 2 normal periods and did everything right and still our baby died. Also...please don't be harsh to one another. Sometimes intuition speaks louder than others opinions. I hope you all have a H&H nine months...sorry about any typos...it's my iPhones fault!

Not to be nosy, but have you pursued the recurrent loss testing? I had bloodwork done after my 2nd m/c, and found that taking a baby aspirin a day could help me to stay pregnant. My 3rd pregnancy was healthy and brought us our son. If you haven't done the testing, I'd absolutely suggest asking your OB about it. If your OB won't do it, find one who will (I had to switch OBs to find one who would do the testing after "just" 2 losses). Take care.

I'm sorry for your loss. Hugs to you. Give your husband some time and maybe he'll come around.
Re: your previous post...I looked at it and no one was snarky at all. It's hard to hear a hb via doppler at 9 weeks, so that's all anyone was really saying.
