I have had two miscarriages....both at about 4 weeks. I have heard many stories of early miscarriages from 6-8 weeks....why are mine so early...the dr. said that my prog. levels were 19.4 (apparently that is ok)....any thoughts for a future pregnancy?

Okay, so I'm totally guessing here. I'm wondering if it is the "quality" of the egg itself. I miscarried twice--once with a "blighted ovum" where my body stayed pregnant, but there was no baby and once where I lost it pretty early. We ran lots of tests and found nothing. Then, I got pregnant when I wasn't supposed to be trying. Oh, I was on Clomid to "build a better egg" with the first two miscarriages, but wasn't put back on it yet when I got pregnant with my daughter.

My sister-in-law miscarried twice and then had two children.With each pregnancy, she was put on hormones to help "keep" the baby. I don't know the name of it, but it made her really naseous, but was totally worth it. Definitely talk to the doctor and see what you can find out.

Good luck and remember that getting the sperm to the egg puts you ahead of the game when it comes to fertility.

First I want to say I'm sorry for your losses. I had a miscarriage in June and I know it doesn't get easier. I'm not much of an expert at these things, but I would venture to look into what development is going on during this stage. I think it's strange that your doctor wouldn't try to figure out what the issue is after 2 m/cs. Everyone hates to hear this, but I really think you should get a new doctor. Having a miscarriage is a difficult and painful thing to go through and you need a doctor who will try to give you answers and help prevent it from happening in the future. From what my doctor told me about my m/c, the most common reason for them to occur is a chromosomal/spinal defect. If that is indeed what happened to you, I suggest you start taking prenatals and give your body a break to recoup before trying again.

Good luck girl!

Everyones body os different. I had one miscarraige at 4 1/2 weeks and one at 12 weeks, I have had 2 live births as well and I am currently 8 weeks pregnant and being as careful as possible. If you are trying to conceive talk with your GYN to get some tips on ways to maybe help you along during early pregnancy. Good Luck!

My condolences with your loss. The best thing to do now, no matter how strange this may sound, is to prepare your body for pregnancy through proper diet. That holds true for you and your partner. Like Hippocrates said, many, many moons ago, "your food shall be your medicine". Dietary patterns and habits have profound effect on metabolism and health, especially for (to be) mothers. It will also affect the health of your child. To make a long story short: proper diet will increase your chances for getting pregnant and succesfully delivering the baby exponentially.

The answers to what the precise elements of a truly healthy and proper diet are may surprise you. In fact it will likely be completely counterintuitive to anything you may have heard so far in the popular media. Basically it boils down to "old fashioned eating". For a unbiased, professional and scientifically sound explanation of these (complex) concepts please check out the links below.

Do some research and find out the (real) facts for yourself. There are many misrepresentations and outright lies out there, especially when it comes to diet and health. If your doctor tells you that all of this is "bogus" and blah-blah, then please find another (better) doctor, preferably one that is (truly) educated in (modern) nutritional science and who has significant experience with controlled-carbohydrate dietary regimens.

As a (nutritional) researcher and scientist I can assure you that the information below is accurate, complete and trustworthy - no matter what you may have heard elsewhere. At the Weston-Price site, look for "prepared parenting" and elsewhere. An excellent source of accurate information. The other site deals with health (and weight maintenance) as well as dietary truths.

Good luck, and good health to you and your (future) baby.

Usually after two or three miscarriages they start to run the tests. If you want the test ask. Some woman do have multiple miscarriages and then go on to have many heathly pregnancies, then some there are problems. Ask your doctor when s/he plans to run genetic testing.

Early pregnancy miscarriages are common and many women early on are pregnant and miscarry before they even know they are pregnant. Sometimes it's an abnormality in the baby and is just natural for you to miscarry it. If your doctor says everything else is normal, keep trying. Hopefully you'll be able to carry it to term later on.

most women have at least one. talk to your gyn and use some form of birth control to reduce the chances of an unwanted pregnancy.

I took progesterone and my levels were normal also. I had two early miscarrages and took progesterone and had a healthy baby boy!

is it possible you weren't really pregnant? or maybe you had a tubal pregnancy or cyst which would both show up positive on a pregnancy test
