Hey there - I had 3 miscarriages before conceiving my DS - after the 2nd I sought independent advice from a gynaecologist/obstetrician. She ran a number of tests and discovered that I had MTFHR, was Factor V Laden and also had a rhesus negative blood type and DH is rhesus positive. She explained to me that any one of these problems could be causing miscarriages as well as low progesterone.

She put me onto daily aspirin, high doses of folate, vitamin B, multi vitamins and calcium tablets which I had to take for a month before trying to conceive and gave me the paperwork to do 3 blood tests 48 hours apart as soon as I suspected I was pregnant (to test for low progesterone and check HCG).

When I got pregnant with DS I had my blood tests done and progesterone was low so I was put on progesterone treatment until the end of the first trimester. DS is now 21 months old and we're starting the cycle (tablets, blood tests etc) all over again to try and conceive #2. Seeking independent advice was the best thing I ever did - hope you also get the answers you're looking for.
