Heartbroken -When to try after a loss, listen to my doc or self

[Kempf]

Hi all,

I am fairly new to this board and after a long break decided to come back and hope to be encouraged through these forums. I have had several mcs, spare you the total numbers (well enought to break a record ). Last mc was June this year started bleeding on my birthday.

Question is doctors haven't told me to take a break bout i'm just fed up, reason being that since i have been attending a recurrent miscarriage clinic and i did take the medication prescribed (150mg aspirin & 40mg clexane injection) to stop any miscarriages still experienced 3 miscarriages at the same period 6wk - 7wks as previous ones.

I just really don't know what to do cos i don't want to experience this pain of mc any more just pray to have a healthy baby. My hubby and I can't decide when to try again, a doc friend of mine suggested i start taking aspirin 75mg only before i conceive and take duphaston 20mg once i test positive...but this doc friend is not my specialist (my specialist insisted i shd not take aspirin b4 conceiving or duphaston) WHAT DO I DO

Sorry for your losses. I don't know what the answer is but there are plenty of ladies on here that i think can help you. I hope you find the answers you need.
In my opinion i would consider what you friend said in conjunction with the advice you get from the girls on here. Seems to me like you have tried what you specialist said and it doesn't seem to have helped. Many of the ladies on here are taking asprin and some form of progesterone as well. I guess that you can only give it a go and see if it helps.

Has the specialist worked out my you keep MC?

Thanks a lot,

the specialist advised cause of MC is APS i.e antiphospholipid syndrome (blood clotting). aparently due to my small weight they possibly can't give me a higher dose of clexane inj.

I'll wait to read what other ladies will advise

Hi hunny,
At least one month break but some doctors say 3-6 months. It might do you good to just live normally for a couple of months, get drunk and not feel guilty! I understand your losses will make you more determined and after only 1 loss I admit I feel obsessed with TTC. As for the medication I dont really have any advice apart from not to take aspirin when you are pregnant but while TTC should be fine.
I wish you all the luck in the world, keep strong xxx

so sorry you've had a hard time, dont know anything about the meds thing but good luck with whatever you try and hope you get a bfp soon

Hi sweetie,

Firstly, I'm so sorry for all you've been through *hugs*. Don't have anything helpful to add I'm afraid, other than to say miracles can happen - a lass my mum works with just had her first baby after about 8 miscarriages, she and her husband just gave up trying and didn't have any hope that the pregnancy would take, she expected the bleeding to start more or less every day. Don't force yourself to keep going if yuo don't feel you want to yet, you're absolutely allowed to do what ever feels right.

xx
