My wife had a miscarriage before our first child. She had a total 4 miscarriages in all and we have 4 living children now. A miscarriage is not the end of the world. The fact that you conceived means that you are capable of having children….

How many miscarriages would a 28 year old have to have before a doctor was concerned?

Q: I am 28 years old now, I am 11 weeks pregnant. I have been pregnant 9 times and have 3 sons, I have had 4 miscarriages, 3 of them this year, 1 November 17th 2010 at 8 weeks, 1 in Jan at just a couple weeks, and 1 Feb 26th, then I got pregnant the 1st 2 weeks in March again and I am still pregnant. I have had a u/s and baby looked great. So I was just wondering if my doctor will consider me high risk or anything when I go to my 2nd O.B appointment in 2 weeks, but it is my first O.B appointment with the clinic I will be staying with, so we haven’t discussed this. Does anyone know typically how many miscarriages someone my age has to have before there is cause for concern?Also one of my miscarriages was a 17 week miscarriage, this happened about 4 years ago though. The rest were all under 12 weeks, and I have had a blighted ovum- meaning no baby or yolk sac just a growing uterus that thinks it is pregnant, that is what happened November 17th 2010. Thanks to you all, and God bless everyone.

A: Normally they will begin testing during the fourth pregnancy after three miscarriages, no matter what age you are.

Rephrasing my question/concern: How many miscarriages in one year is normal?

Q: I believe I recently went through a miscarriage this weekend. I was nearly sure that this was my month as I was having symptom of pregnancy, but then my period did arrive. We’ve been trying since December. I believe I also had a miscarriage in February and an anovluatory cycle in April and now that I think of it, I believe I did not ovulate in May either. I know some of this is standard for a woman to experience (miscarriages and anovulatory cycles), maybe my year just started off badly? But I’m wondering why so much is happening and if something is wrong is wrong with me? Is this normal? Anyone have advice, comments, experiences to share? My period seems to come within 31-34 days each cycle. I’m pretty regular. So I’m not sure what is going on….I did have an FSH test done at day 3. I seem to be okay, there (my understanding is that if that test comes with good results, then estrogen and progesterone are fine and functioning normally). I have had all other regular tests done and am healthy, doing just fine. I am a pretty healthy individual. March I started a new job and I’m in the military so that adds lots of stress. Maybe my lifestyle is the issue? But I had many similar things going on my first pregnancy and so I don’t think stress is the issue…Thanks Face T – I really appreciate your input. I’m frustrated that I was not more careful of what I requested from my doctor. I told her I suspected a hormone issue, potentiall progesterone or estrogen, so aside from FSH, I was under the impression with my blood samples taken that my progesterone and estrogen were also tested. I’m not sure what the tests for those are called. If you don’t mind advising, I’d appreciate your input. Thanks!I’m gathering that you had these simliar issues? Or know someone who has? Or you’re in the medical field? I apprecaite your help with this, too!!I appreciate the advice. I am curious about the suppositories and interested to do ANYTHING that will give me a healthy child. I am a healthy person (good diet and daily activity), 27 (soon to be 28), have been taking my prenatal vitamins since December, folic acid, B6 and treat myself now with only Tylenol (was using Ibrophin before). I should lower my caffiene intake, which is 1.5 cups of coffee a day on average.

A: Chemical pregnancy (less than 4-6 weeks) is common and happens quite often (many couples don’t even know since don’t test that early). if you count chemical pregnancy, the miscarriage rate is quite high (maybe even 50% of all pregnancies).Sorry about your loss. What weeks did you miscarry? Aside from genetic/chromosomal problems (which you cannot do much about other than have your SO’s semen tested), another common cause is progesterone deficiency. Get yourself tested for that as well as any infection/autoimmune disorder.If you have 3 miscarriages in a row (after 6 weeks), one can usually do additional testing for a recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). The frequency in a year is irrelevant. One can miscarry as many times as one can get pregnant. it is usually getting pregnant part that is more difficult.Good luck.Added: You are incorrect on the FSH test. That is just one of the hormones which is measured on CD3 to figure out ovarian reserve (quality). it doesn’t mean that you don’t have an progesterone issue or other hormonal issue (even thyroid) or other hormones are in balance.Added2: the progesterone is supposed to be measured post-ovulation (usually done on day 21 to figure out whether ovulated or not) as well as during pregnancy to see if it drops/hovers around level of 10. In order to sustain pregnancy you want this to be well above 10, more like 15-20+. The level at CD3 is irrelevant as long as it was very low. Since you don’t seem to have a problem ovulating, need to figure out what is happening post-ovulation and why are your miscarrying. Also REGARDLESS of whether you have a progesterone problem or not or whatever the tests say, given you have miscarried twice already, you SHOULD be taking progesterone suppositories if pregnant for the first trimester. It doesn’t hurt to take and can make all the difference.

What’s the percentage of pregnancies that end in (early) miscarriage?

Q: My mom used to teach childbirth classes in the late 80’s/ early 90’s and I remember her telling me once that it was something like 60%, with the majority of miscarriages happening before a woman even knew she was pregnant. I just found out that I’m pregnant and I’m pretty sure that I had a VERY early miscarriage at exactly the same time last year ( I was taking BC at that time, but was not when I conceived this time). Naturally, I’m worried that it might happen again. How many pregnancies end in miscarriage, at what point does this stop being a major risk? I think I also remember reading somewhere that morning sickness actually reduces your chance of miscarriage, is there any truth to this? Thanks for the info!

A: the threat of miscarriage declines rapidly once the 3 mth mark is up. the baby should be strong enough to survive at this point. just remember that a bit of bleeding in early pregnancy is said to be ok but i spotted brown discharge for the last 3 days and this morning it was red and like a period. the doctor called to tell me the the pregnancy hormone in my blood is very low and i was suffering a miscarriage. so it is important to take any bit of bleeding seriousley.i wish you every luck with your pregnancy.
