Repeat chemical pregnancies! What tests did you have?

[Kelx44]

So I've been having repeat miscarriages! But super early on almost when I expect my period. Doctor had done basic blood tests and normal and said next will be the dye test. Is there any other test I should ask to get to cover my basis? I got faint positive but having cramps and brown blood again so I'm most likely miscarrying again!!!!! So so sad! I don't understand wits wrong with me! Any other options or tests I should ask for? Thank you

That is a good question. I'd like to know the same.

 

[Kelx44]

Anyone??? lol im thinking im not on the right forum...but clearly I am.....

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

Hi u can also do hsg and have u done sa for your husband? I am going through all the visits with the doctor. Our appointment is on 17th. So scared. I think I am miscarrying all the time without even knowing it. But let see what the doctor will say.

I know that the reason can be bad sperm or egg .

GOOD LUCK to you.

 

[Kelx44]

I know I thought I would be lucky second time around....

This is heartbreaking, the cramps hurt, just brownish blood still.....I just want it to be done and over with already...

I have a gyno appointment this wednesday as well.....just wanted to see what other tests ppl have had so I can ask for them

 

[DAISYPRENCESS]

These days people don't answer a lot to questions . I also ask after a slight cold did I damaged the egg for this month but no answer .

I know what u are passing through. I think I had chemical pregnancy in June. So painful and stressful. I was like a zombie for days after. I cried a lot. I really, really wanted the baby.

 

[Kelx44]

I know and I dont have any so it makes it that much harder to appreciate the other things in life...oh well my time will come one day

You might want to check out the recurrent miscarriage thread. There are a lot of really knowledgeable women on there that might help steer you in the right direction.

Three of my four miscarriages happened around the 5 week mark. I know just what your going through and it sucks.

 

[Kelx44]

Oh thank you!!! Didn't know that forum existed!!!!

Hi Kelx44,

I just went through the same thing. AF arrived last night. This is my third chemical in six months. We've been TTC for one year. My first "infertility" appointment is this Thursday. Let's keep each other updated on how our appointments go, yes? It might help us.

Background on me:
Slightly irregular cycle 32-36 days
Painful monthly AF cramps
14-15 day luteal phase
Ovulation CD 19-20

 

[Kelx44]

Oh no! I'm sorry for your loss! I sure hope this sticks!!! I'm feeling mild pain down below... Then I read the Internet and convinced myself I have an etopic pregnancy ugh! Hate the Internet! Have doc appointment Wednesday! I wonder what tests she will do?

 

[Chook]

Hi I'm not sure I can help but I've had four really early losses a couple of days after my period was due. I highly recommend you have your immune system checked. It's turns out I have a mild form of lupus and antinuclear antibodies which would fight off the implanting baby and cause blood clotting issues. I was prescribed prednisolone, clexane and plaquenil and just completed my 5 th ivf round. Sorry to mention it only doing it cause I think it may help but I'm 5 weeks pregnant on this treatment and my beta numbers are doubling beautifully. The treatment I'm on is called the bondi protocol. I hope you find some answers soon and I'm so sorry you are going through this xox

 

[Kelx44]

Ya it's not fun! I'm 4 weeks pregnant today. Yesterday divot or said my hcg numbers were 365 not sure if that's good or not? Check again wednesday... Still have brown discharge

 

[prgirl_11]

Kelx44, those hCG numbers sound great! I hope everything goes well at your appointment tomorrow. Please keep us posted!

Chook, what kind of doctor did you see? Did you just go to your gyn. or RE?

AFM, I made a second gyn. appointment so now I am seeing two on Thursday. I just want to have a backup in case I don't like how one doctor approaches the situation.

Hey prgirl, my fertility specialists ran some bloods and noticed a few immune issues so he referred me onto a immunologist who then investigated further

Okay, got it. I wanted to see a RE (reproductive endocrinologist) but I am hoping that one of the two doctors that I see Thursday will do a recurrent pregnancy loss blood panel (might be the same thing you got done). If not, I might have to demand it. I hate when doctors take their time or give the run-around

 

[melfy77]

Have you tried progesterone? And same as other pp, get a full blood disorder panel (Factor V Leiden, MTHFR, Protein S deficiency, Protein C deficiency (which I have), APS, Lupus, etc), as well as NK cells.

So sorry you're going through this

 

[Kelx44]

Well I havent had a miscarriage as of yet....its lasting longer then last CP so im greatful for that....I have another blood test tomorrow, so fingers crossed they have doubled!!!! Brown discharge is subsiding but I mean its still there. Crampy all over still. Kinda feels like AF. I pray that this is a viable pregnancy!!! Thats all I want....Ill ask for those tests if this ends up in a miscarriage..but I sure hope it doesnt...ill be devastated again

Hi Kelx44! How did everything go? Did you get your blood results yet? Is the discharge and cramping gone?

 

[Kelx44]

Well Sunday my hcg levels at 3 weeks 7 days was 345. And three days later it went to 1700. I'm now 4 weeks 3 days. Doctor said those are great numbers. Brown spotting has just about completely gone. And crampy still around. But it comes and goes
