5 Myths About Recurrent Miscarriage
THE LAST THING YOU NEED RIGHT NOW IS BAD INFORMATION

In case you're one of the numerous ladies (like me) who has encountered intermittent pregnancy misfortune (RPL), you have most likely heard a great deal of deception about this medicinal puzzle. I realize I did. A few people revealed to me I didn't have to request medicinal help until I lost three pregnancies. Others said in the event that I could simply quit worrying and ingest boatloads of kelp, I'd be ensured a full-term infant. Indeed, even my specialist disclosed to me that I could keep away from future unnatural birth cycles by taking child ibuprofen and progesterone supplements. (Two additional premature deliveries refuted that.

1: You're accomplishing something incorrectly.

2: You should lose three pregnancies straight before observing a specialist.

3: Just take [insert wonder sedate here] and you will be relieved.

4: You should to hold up [insert deplorably lengthy time-frame period] to attempt once more.

5: You will never be a mother.

Oh that is such a relief to hear! I will be on pins and needles waiting to hear how your scan goes next week. I am not anticipating good news for me but am ok with it. This was very unplanned and shocking to say the least so I am well prepared. We even went over dates to have the d&c or induce with medications at my last visit because I am so certain this isn’t viable. I leave the country April 2 and really want this resolved before I leave. If by some shocking miracle this is viable and it is on track next week then I’m going to have to really dig deep to face the reality of having 5 kids! It’s overwhelming but lovely too. And who doesn’t want a baby? Of course I want it. But I also stay incredibly guarded having been down this road so many times.

I am relieved to hear your levels line up with your scans perfectly. That is a very reassuring sign! Prayers to you during this annoying and stressful time !!!!

Why don't you think it will be ok? I think you have every reason to expect a positive outcome. You've already seen so much on the ultrasound and those HCG values are so variable from person to person. Also (i've heard cause i'm certainly no expert) that symptoms vary between each pregnancy too. I haven't had any morning sickness and i'm hoping that's not a bad sign! But i do know that my hormones are just now starting to kick in so i might get it soon. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and we can update each other on monday with our results!

Every single miscarriage I have ever had - I was never sick. But with each viable pregnancy I was full on PUKING by 6 weeks and so smell sensitive and nauseous no 24:7. . I just think my hormones are low. Especially since I am certain I conceived from intercourse on the 12th. I think in all honesty this baby stopped growing at 5w3 days. I suspect when I go in on the 25th my ultrasound will look the same as it did 10 days prior. I guess this could be a crazy fluke but my history tells me this is a miscarriage. Only time will tell I guess!

Thank you for the encouragement! Science isn’t always by the book so there’s always room for mysterious happenings! I do wonder if somehow my surrogacy maybe changed my pregnancies ... I wasn’t sick with her baby hardly at all. And now I’m feeling basically great minus the exhaustion and occasional food aversion.

Only a few more days and we will know our fate! I hate waiting !!!!

So happy for you! Congratulations!

This sounds like the ectopic I had two years ago????

Yes I wondered the same thing! Weirdly I have a healthy baby trucking along in my uterus right where it should be. I am baffled! The dates do not match up but I suppose it is not a perfect science !

Currently laying beside my almost 2 year old who was conceived by BDing 7 days before O.

Happy to hear a positive outcome and praying for grace in the transition—mentally and physically.
