Is there anything wrong with this group, I have had two early miscarriage?

Question

My husband is Ab+ (AA) and I am B+ (AA) but I have had up to two miscarriages. Did our blood not good?

Answer 1

i don't think that it has anything to do with that. i miscarried twice then had a successful pregnancy. i then miscarried three times since and am now in my second trimester of my second pregnancy

Answer 2

Differing blood groups between parents is not an issue. Differing blood groups between mother and infant can be an issue at birth, but it is not a cause of early miscarriage (before the 8th week).

About 20% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage. Many of them used to happen before the woman knew she had been pregnant, but with early response tests, many women know something is up even if it is only a chemical pregnancy, which is different than a miscarriage. It means that sperm and egg met, but the pregnancy didn't implant. Sometimes either egg or sperm are just empty.

The most common cause of miscarriage is chromosomal abnormalities. The cells just can divide properly to sustain life. The older the father, the more of his sperm are likely to be damaged, but there should still be healthy ones in there no matter what his age.

The other cause of miscarriage can be exposure to chemicals and nutritional deficiencies. That's why doctors now recommend that all women who are trying to conceive take prenatal vitamins.

Another issue, related to blood, but not blood type, is a tendency to over or under clot. If you have had fibroids or funny periods or severe cramping, your blood may not clot in a way that sustains pregnancy.

Some women have many miscarriages before they discover, often on their own, that they need a mild blood thinner. Women usually use ONE of the following from when they are trying to conceive until they are about 34 weeks pregnant: a daily dose of a fish oil capsule, a daily capsule of evening primrose oil, or one low-dose aspirin (only baby aspirin or special half-dose aspirin).

I am very, very sorry for you losses. I've had two miscarriages myself, but I also have two very healthy children. You must take heart, be brave and take excellent care of yourself and, as impatient and desperate as you may feel, that means waiting three months between your miscarriage and trying to conceive again. Pregnancy begets pregnancy and the more often you become pregnant, the more often it will happen.

That said, your body and emotions need time to heal. Too early and your body may not be ready for another pregnancy and you will get caught in a cycle of early miscarriages.

I wish you all the best and hope you deliver a healthy, happy baby in 2007. Good luck.

Answer 3

Misscarriages are very common, just not talked about. Blood group plays no role.

Maybe see your doctor and he/she may suggest taking medication to help your next baby "stick".

Good luck! Sending you lots of baby dust!
