Sorry I sent the response before I was finished.

See previous response for extra info.

No so far they havent found anything, except that my Chromosones (through blood test) have a small percentage of 45X (turners mosaic). Which the fertility clinic has done further testing on this (through skin biopsy - and still awaiting results) as I have none of the symptoms of turners mosiac (eg short, manly etc) and they dont think this is correct.

My hubby also had extensive testing (similar to mine) and nothing was found with him.

Other than that, I keep on going...... my 2nd miscarriage was also tested for chromosones and nothing was found.

Very frustrating as I feel like I am getting older and want to have my first child before it is too late.....

Thank you, syran. I have read over the link you recommended before and it was quite motivational for me to get this investigating underway. There has to be a reason this is happening.

Did they do an endometrial biopsy? Just wondering if that is standard. I am worried about that one as it may affect our TTC chances that cycle (we are keen to try again after first AF, but that is the cycle they will be testing).

DH and I have had a chromosones tested, and are waiting on the results of the most recent MC. Your turner's result is interesting. Did they recommend IVF with PGD (that may be the direction we take).

Cheers

I hope you don't mind me posting but I just wanted to recommend Dr Gavin Sacks from IVF Australia. He specialises in recurrent miscarriage and has an amazing success rate with women who've suffered many, many losses - google his name, I'm sure you'll find lots of info.

Hi Willow

Thanks for your recommendation. I have read a lot of positive comments on BB about Dr Sacks and am actually having an initial consultation with him next week. I am doubling up on opinions but this is the most important thing in my life and I will go to every length to get to the bottom of this while I am hopefully still fertile.

Has Dr Sacks helped you, Willow? Did he find anything?

Hi WTH - I have no info to offer but I just wanted to say that I am really happy that you are getting the help you need to fulfil your desire to have your baby. I followed your recent journey and was very disappointed and upset for you when you lost this little baby. I personally found that taking charge of things and getting a great dr etc really helped me with my grieving process. Take care and best of luck - keep in touch and let us know how you go. You have probably noticed that in the TTC after recurrent, late or stillbirth there are a couple of other women who have gone through similar recurrent early mcs like you - feel free to join us for a chat.

Thanks, Katiegirl. I am doing everything I can. My biggest fear is this is all happening too late. I would give anything to be in my early 30's again, I know women can have babies at my age, but I guess all these D&C's and first trimesters are taking a lot out of me.

My way of coping is to be proactive so that I don't regret that I could have done more, later on.

Thanks for the invite to the TTC thread. I am so glad this pregnancy is working out for you!
