If what she suffered was genetic, then theres a chance. If it isnt genetic, then theres less of a chance.
My family (girls of the family, can't carry boys, twins run also, and no one has any successfully been able to carry, only the boys of the family's girlfriend, if this makes sense).
There could be a chance, but I wouldn't worry too much about it. Worrying can do more trouble at times.

It is possible that there could be a genetic relation, if you are concerned talk to a genetics councellor. My mother didn't have any problems, but my aunt did. I have had one stillborn and four miscarriages. I also have three living children.
Good luck to you.

It depends on why she miscarried. If she had a slanted uterus or something like that, it could be passed down. But there are a lot of reasons women miscarry that are not at all genetic. Chances are that you are fine. Usually a baby doesn't survive because there is something wrong with it. Like it isn't developing a heart or a brain correctly. This could be genetic, but it could be that it was your dad's sperm that was faulty and nothing to do with your mom or her eggs.

Not necesarily, my mom and her cousin both had a hard time with miscarriages, but the first time I got pregnant I had a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby boy!

My grandmother had misscarriages before having her daughter and her daughter had no problems, she had three healthy babies (no miscarriages). Good Luck :-)

Nope, you may have one, or none.
