Three pregnancies and all three lost before 6 weeks. Any advice on how to get past first trimester?
I've taken prenatal vitamins all three pregnancies, the vitamins contained folic acid but one of my husbands relatives had the same problem with miscarrying (same amount of times) and she told me to buy a over the counter folic acid pills as well because I may be deficient. She said the pills helped her carry her twins on her fourth try.
My question is, does anyone have advice on what I could do? Very very much appreciated! My whole world is once again shattered for the third time this year..

Have you talked with your OBgyn about why this might be happening. Mine took blood work after/during my 3rd chemical and found that my progesterone was very low. I had been using progesterone cream but it must be very weak because I was using the full dose and my progesterone was only 1. My ob gave me prescription progesterone supplements to take this time. I will not know if it has worked for another week but am hopeful. She also has referred me to a fertility clinic just in case the progesterone does not fix the issue. There can be many reasons for these types of losses but there are things that can be done to help. Good luck! I hope that you are able to figure this out and soon get your BFP :)

Ur issue could be anything really. I don't think folic acid has anything to do with a mc, early losses are most commonly due to chromosomal abnormalities. I have lost my last 3 pregnancies since April, at 4.5 and 6ish wks with no history of mc beforehand, and 2 previously healthy pregnancies/births. I've been taking a prenatal and an extra 4mg of folic acid since 2012. Just do the best u can to stay healthy. At the end of the day, u can't control how they divide or implant. If u can, speak with ur Dr about running some blood work on ur hormones, if they're out of balance u will lose a pregnancy. An ultrasound to check ur uterus could reveal any issues as well.
Take care of urself, u'll get a good one soon. Stay positive! =))

Hi I've had 3 miscarriages in a row 2 at 6 weeks and one at 5 weeks and before that I had a healthy baby. I had all the tests done and all came back fine. My gynaecologist told me to take 150mg of baby aspirin while TTC so I did and when I feel pregnant the 4th I carried on taken the aspirin till I was 5 months and all was ok and pregnancy all went fine. Now I'm trying again and also I've started taking my baby aspirin again. I still never found out why I lost my 3 Angels. But I guess things happen for a reason. Good luck with your journey and I wish you all the best xx
