6 weeks pregnant with twins ! OMG !

helloooooo
I'm aged 40, I have a 5 year old son & have had 4 miscarriages in the last 2 years.
I've been seeing a private fertility consultant with a view to having IVF in December.
he suggested a few things to try whilst we're trying incl DHEA & COQ10 & others.
the cycle I got my BFP he said to try cyclogest from ovulation, then continue if I got a BFP, low dose steroid from BFP & clexane from BFP & others.
I went for an early scan on Friday & they found 2 sacs, 2 embryos, 2 heartbeats !!!! OMG OMG OMG !!!!
I know I'm far from out of the woods but we've never got to a heartbeat stage before so I'm overjoyed !!!
I have another scan in 2 weeks & an appointment with a high risk consultant in 2 weeks, my GP says I tick every high risk box on the list (great !) so I know I can't count my chickens yet but I'm trying to remain quietly positive !
does anyone have anything positive they can share with me re successful pregnancy after recurrent miscarriage or successful pregnancy with multiples ?
thank you so much x

  • Congratulations! I have no advice, as I am currently 6 weeks pregnant after a miscarriage in August myself, but that's great news! We have an ultrasound on the 30th and have our fingers crossed for a heartbeat as well. Last time our first ultrasound was between 8 and 9 weeks and there was no heartbeat. Thinking positive thoughts for this time, and hope all goes will with you too! :)
  • Congratulations!!!!!
  • I don't have any particular advice, but here's hoping these two are good and sticky beans! Sending lots of good juju your way!

    Congrats! That's so exciting!  I, too, had multiple miscarriages prior to conceiving my son on hormones, Lovenox (clexane) and prednisone.  I truly believe that this made all the difference and resulted in a totally healthy perfect baby boy!  I'm on the same regimen this time around.  I hope you have excellent results too!

  • Congratulations!!
  • my midwife has rang me today & booked me in for thursday this week.
    I'm feeling quite positive whilst still holding a little bit of myself back in case of bad news (I am quite an optimistic person but 4 miscarriages has taken its toll lol)
    I have some spare blood forms so I might get my HCG's done this week to put my mind at rest as my next scan isn't until the following week.
    hopefully if things continue ok, I'll just chill a bit & stop being so anxious !
    thank you all so much for your warm wishes, it means a lot x
  • aimhop,
    your 1st scan is the day before my 2nd scan, FX it all goes amazingly, pls let me know x
  • dahliaflower,
    I'm CONVINCED the steroids, blood thinner & progesterone have done the trick ! did you continue with that protocol until 12 weeks or longer ?
    congrats on your successful pregnancy, gives me lots of hope x
  • starlightgator,
    that's amazing news ! I got caught straight after my last m/c with no cycle in between.
    are your twins in separate sacs ? how exciting ! are you having a 2nd scan soon ? x
  • mama-bear,
    I'll check out the multiples board, thank you x
  • My girlfriend just gave birth to the most risky type of twins (mono-mono) just last week. She carried them to term, had an amazing vaginal delivery, and they are both perfect and healthy. This was her first pregnancy following a loss. Good luck!!
