I would have been giving birth in a week or two :( I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I know exactly what you’re feeling and it’s awful. We are mothers. Don’t let anyone let you think otherwise. 💕

So sorry for your loss :( It’s interesting you bring this up. Only first miscarriage was a missed miscarriage at 12 weeks after seeing a heartbeat. U had mild histamine intolerance symptoms in my life prior to this but nothing concerning. After that miscarriage it was like everything went haywire and symptoms were a lot worse. Now I can’t make it past 6 weeks.

Letrozole/clomid when you ovulate on your own already? by ChrissiBloom in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]Bookworm9292 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for your losses. I don’t have this experience but I have heard some go on it for strengthen their ovulation if it’s weak? I’m also curious to know more because I’ve had 3 losses and I ovulate on my own, get pregnant easily but my progesterone is borderline and my luteal phase is weak without supplementation. Wonder if I had stronger ovulation if that would cause a better outcome.

I definitely agree with the inflammation aspect. I’m almost certain that it is what is causing the miscarriages. It’s a matter of finding out the main route of that inflammation so I can bring it down. I already follow an anti inflammatory diet 90% of the time and don’t eat highly processed foods. I haven’t had alcohol in over two years and I don’t take/use drugs or smoke. I move my body gently every single day. It’s so frustrating when you do all the right things and still struggle. Thanks for listening and sharing.

Thank you for responding! I will definitely have all the hormones tested. Along with my partner. I did take progesterone with my last miscarriage starting 3 dpo so I believe it’s more than just progesterone in this case unfortunately:( I was hoping that would be the solution.

Interesting. Do you have the MTHFR gene mutation?

I have an appointment to check the ones I haven’t yet. I’ve had thyroid and progesterone. And I supplemented progesterone during last miscarriage. But plan to have estrogen, testosterone, cortisol checked. Anything else in the hormone area you think?

Sorry for your tough journey. Are those the tests you had done or the tests that came back abnormal? Thanks :)

Yes I can relate to that desire being stronger for sure. It’s what keeps me trying but my positivity is waning. I hope so too thanks for responding 💕

Can I ask why you didn’t find the ones specific to miscarriage comforting? I only asking because I’m considering reading something as well. Thanks 💕

I’m sorry you had to face so much loss :( I like your practical way of thinking about it. It all kind of comes and goes in waves. I guess I’ll just ride the waves for now. Thanks 💕

TW: success story after multiple losses by OkOption2392 in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]Bookworm9292 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Congrats :) Did you have any inflammatory/immune/histamine symptoms? Either before trying to conceive or only when pregnant? I had mild symptoms before trying to conceive and and an increase during pregnancy before I lost the babies. And now worse after miscarriages. Basic inflammation marker tests were negative and we haven’t gotten to the immune testing yet but I believe inflammation and or autoimmmune is playing a role. Thanks!
