[quote=Anonymous]TW: miscarriage and other children mentioned

I am pretty sure I am going through my 3rd miscarriage.  I am 6w4d and have been brown spotting since Monday.  I pushed for a repeat beta at 28dpo and it had only risen to 2101 from 447 (18dpo).  I have no idea what happened since my first betas rose appropriately from 108 to 447 with a doubling time of 32 hours.  I have a scan tomorrow to see what is going on but I am not holding out very much hope for this.

I am 35 and we have been trying for 10 months. Of those 10 months this is my 3rd pregnancy.  I had a chemical in July and again August. I finally got a good positive in April with dark pregnancy tests and appropriately rising betas all for it to fall apart a few weeks into it.  I am devastated to say the least. I seriously thought that after the good first initial betas we were out of the woods.  I had two successful and uneventful pregnancies in the past (4 and 2 years ago) so I was not prepared for all of this when we decided to have our third.

With that being said, for those of you who have experienced secondary infertility, how far did you go with a RE or when did you know you were  just done and to accept what has been dealt to you?  We actually had our first consultant with Shady Grove and then I found out I was pregnant a week later.  Right now I am not sure if we should reach back out to them or not.  They suggested that I have an HSG done but I am not sure that would be necessary given that we know the egg can at least get to my uterus okay.

I feel bad for feeling so bad about this. I know I am beyond blessed for having two healthy children already.  I don't want this to consume my life and take away from enjoying my children in the present now.  I also don't know if infertility treatments are covered with my insurance or not (have to look into that).  If it isn't covered or only partially covered I don't know how far we would take this since it is basically taking money away from my existing children for the possibility of having more children.  Not sure if I should look at it like that or not.

Thank you for letting me express myself. I just feel so down about everything right now and am not sure how to proceed or process this. [/quote]
