I’m so with you. I’ve had 3 miscarriages and pregnant now. I do not want to go to the doctor I am so traumatized. I don’t know how you went 20 times. God bless you 🙏🏼

I had 13 miscarriages before I realized that I needed testosterone suppositories for the first trimester. Now I have a healthy 14 year-old boy.

Unfortunately I am on number 6. It’s either a missed Mc. A chemical pregnancy or early mc at 6-7 weeks 🥺 I’m starting to imagine a future without a baby

im dreading that ultrasound after 3 losses; 2 of them blighted ovums. I don’t want to go. Im 37 and I know its harder foe a successful one but not impossible. When you had your miscarriages how did you send it to genetic testing to see if it is genetics? Did they do it during a D&C? Or if you miscarried at home, how will I be able to send it for genetic testing? Are you over the age of 35?

I wish I knew what this felt like. All I know is the ultrasound tech’s face changing and being told that I need to talk to my doctor. Then I look at the screen and it’s an empty sac.
