is this the reason for my miscarriages?

Question

i recently had my 3rd miscarriage. This has left me devastated and left me looking for the reason why this keeps happening. I was speakin with a friend and she told me that it may be because i am 0- (blood group) and that if i conceived another blood group my body would reject i have looked up a few articles that agree with what she said. It has now left me angry and confused because i was in a n e during my last miscarriage they know im 0- and they did not give me the injection that is needed to prevent this happening again......why i dont understand. Its now left me emotiional because it says the injection is needed within 72 hours of miscarriage. Why didnt the doctor tell me about this and why is there no concern ...I dont know who to seek advise from because my gp doesnt seem concerned about me miscarrying but it is beginning to leave me really depressed because me and my partner so much want to be proud parents x

Answer 1

As previous respondents have indicated, blood grouping is not a cause for miscarriage - this is often confused with the issue of rhesus incompatibility. My advice would be to request a review at the recurrent miscarriage clinic - district generals with maternity services have these. Causes such as conditions like antiphospholipid syndrome can be detected via simple blood tests and often something simple treatmenst like low dose aspirin can help. Also - 1 in 4 pregnancies end is miscarriage. Its all too easy for someone to say its bad luck but remember this may still be the cause. I wish you well and hope that you will soon be blessed. x.

Answer 2

I have had two miscarriages and now I am currently 20 weeks pregnant. My doctor said that my previous m/c's were most likely caused by chromosomal abnormalities. He said that 20% of all pregnancies end in m/c. I would suggest that you visit a website that has helped me tremendously. It is www.misdiagnosedmiscarriage.com. A lot of the ladies there are extremely understanding and helpful. There is also a lot of information offered. I hope that this helps a little, because I do know what you are going through.

Answer 3

the reason they are not concerned is because having rh negative blood does NOT cause miscarriage. if that is the issue, it may cause problems with a future pregnancy when the baby is further along, but it does not cause miscarriage. you need to look elsewhere for the cause of early miscarriages. when you do conceive, the doctor should monitor your blood through the pregnancy for the presence of antibodies that could attack your baby and cause problems, but once again, it will not cause an early miscarriage. good luck

a history of STDs such as chlamydia, gonorhea, etc..may have caused you to have PID (pelvic inflamatory disease) which will make getting pregnant alot harder, because it damages your reproductive system by causing scar tissue. STD is a SILENT disease. millions of women have it without knowing it for years, because most women don't have any symptoms.That is why the number of miscarriages and infertilile couples have risen. It might be a good idea to go to a nearby clinic to find out if you have a history of STIs or have any at all. it is easily transmitted thru sexual contact. Just something to consider, because this effects millions of women every year in america.

I had a test at 5 weeks and additionally you could desire to work out the sac yet no toddler. I had to flow back a week till they could SEE the pulse (7 weeks). i did no longer hear the pulse till sixteen weeks. Ask her how they did the test. If she says that they did it on correct of her abdomen - she is mendacity. Even at 12 weeks you prefer an entire bladder to work out the toddler correct on that form of test. you ought to have an inner test (up your vagina) till now 12 weeks (from time to time much less yet you prefer an entire bladder). She ought to recognize all this if she is pregnant. i've got been via a similar element. the place a chum lies consistently and additionally you ultimately don't think something they say yet i've got additionally been on the different element the place I advised a small lie (no longer something this enormous - I mentioned I had a boyfriend and we've been purely buddies unlikely out) and then whilst human beings found out they did no longer have self assurance me so attempt and be advantageous to her. no be counted how annoying this is!

Being O - will not make you have a miscarriage.
You need to ask your GP to refer you to a gynaecologist to have a few tests before you try for a 4th pregnancy. If you become pregnant again you will be closely monitored from the very beginning and if you need treatment you will get it.
I wish you the very best. xx
