I'm sorry for your loss. It must be so hard to have your hopes up like that. The family that I had surrogated for had 4 miscarriages, even with Invitro treatments. I hope maybe next time, your doctors can give you some kind of 'boosting' shot to help your body through the pregnancy!

I am SO sorry for your loss. I have a friend that had lost 5 babies but she finally was able to carry a baby to term. Her baby is now 4 months old and he is the size of a 9 month-old. My thoughts and prayers are with you for future success.

I'm sorry for your loss. I've never lost a little one, but went through 2 years of fertility treatment to get my dd. I had a friend who was doing fertility tx at the same time, and had similar experiences. She was found to have "anti-phospho lipid antibody" syndrome. It's easy to test for with blood. They treated it with blood thinners and progesterone in the early pregnancy and she did fine. Perhaps bring that up to your MD if/when you are ready to try again.

Again, my thoughts are with you. I wish you peace and healing.

Far far away!
I know what you are going through. My husband and I have been trying to coneive for about a year and a half and I have miscarried. It is a very hard thing to go through. But keep in mind that that does mean you CAN get pregnant. Many women miscarry and are still able to carry babies full term after that. But I do know how scary it is to think there is something wrong. I have a friend who miscarried a lot and her and her husband tried for a baby for like two years. Now they have a beautiful baby girl.
So, know you are not alone and if you need anyone to talk to, PM me, I will gladly talk because I kinda need someone to talk to as well for I am trying for a baby too and just found out yesterday that it's not happening this month. It is so hard. I will pray for you!

Brandi, so sorry. I just saw this thread today. I had a miscarriage, too. One month later, I was pregnant again. Ben is 13 now. Hang in there.
