I am on my 14th miscarriage

[Anonymous]

Just wondered if their are any other women who have had this many? This is over about 6 years and I do have a child so I know I am blessed but we are still actively trying to complete our family. However, I know that is not ultimately in my hands. I just am now starting to worry how these miscarriages wear on my body. Pregnancies are obviously taxing on your body and I worry about my bones and nutrition. I feel ok, not great but ok. I have dipped a little underweight and am looking very tired but am getting through the days just fine. Just curious if anyone has experienced loses in such high numbers. Majority of the pregnancies end around 9-13 weeks.

Have you seen a fertility specialist/RE yet op? This could be a progesterone issue that could be easily solved.

Im not sure but just wanted to send you a hug as I know this may be a difficult time for you.

Have you done any kinds of treatments at all? I can't believe docs would tell you everything is great when you are miscarrying like that.

Oh, my. I'm so sorry. Have you seen a Reproductive Immunologist?

Very sorry you've had to go through this. Wishing you the best.

DH and I agreed to stop at 7 and either accept our family as it is, or explore other alternatives. I feel strongly about listening to my body.

OP - no advice, just virtual hugs for what you are going through.

So many repeating miscarriages so early are an indication of immune issues. I am assuming by now, you have done genetic testing and do not have issues there.

Have you heard of Dr Braverman www.preventmiscarriage.com

Captain Obvious here, but you mentioned you are underweight. Have you had your thyroid checked to see if you are hyperthyroid? I'm so sorry for all your losses. I'd look into immune issues, as well as trying to get to gain a few pounds. (I have lots I wish I could donate to you!)

Another so sorry for your losses.

To chime in on the testing front - in addition to thyroid, have you been tested for Celiac disease? One of the things I learned after my child was diagnosed was that frequent miscarriages can be one of the symptoms for women.
