I am TTC at the moment after losing a baby at 19 weeks which was 9 weeks ago. I am trying to do lots of research and thought some people here might be able to share their experiences.
I had my DS 4 years ago and he was born at 28 weeks due to severe IUGR. I had alot of tests done after this on myself and on the placenta. The specialists feel that I show the signs of an auto immune disease but have not showed a positive in any tests. The decision was made to treat me with aspirin and Fragmin (I believe is a type of Heparin) once I conceived. I got a BFP in May 2008 and started the drugs but had a m/c at 8 weeks. Started TTC again and 19 months later I got a BFP. Started meds again and then had a m/c at 19 weeks. OB said that the same thing has happened, the placenta just doesnt function properly. He cant tell me if it will happen again or not. I have had this condition with 2 boys and he said that it is more likely in a boy pregnancy than a girl. He has told me that there is nothing else we can try. My DH and I have decided that we want to try again as our family is not yet complete.
I was hoping someone may be able to give me some success stories. All the reading that I have done on forums has shown the aspirin and heparin to make a difference but it hasnt for me. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
