Milla - ditto exactly as Flowerchild says! I take 1000mg of B12 also because I am a vegetarian. I am a little unsure about how much B6 to take. There is 50mg in my Blackmores Conceive Well Gold. Just lately I have been taking 25mg on top of this. But it can extend your luteal phase (which may or may not suit you). B6 also should not be taken for extended periods of time - something to do with nerve damage. I started Megafol at the end of last year. I do not know what my folate or homocysteine levels were in the past, but after MC no.3 they are normal. Hope this is a help
AustraJoey - that is great news. CONGRATULATIONS. And you can go into this pregnancy knowing about the Hashimotos. It's different this time Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy. Can I ask you what is Hashimotos? I have done extensive MC testing and I do not think they looked for that one...
Thankyou so much for all this wonderful info Flowerchild and to the ladies posting, I have been engrossed in reading all you have to say, Im only half way through the posts and Im going to have to read over the info again and really study it to understand, Ive felt really stupid in leaving it to the Ob and GP after reading all this great info. You really should take matters into your own hands when it comes to things like this. Im going to.
My last miscarriage was 3 weeks ago tomorrow and everyone is making me feel insane for contemplating another pregnancy, and I was starting to believe them. But Ive felt so lost and unhappy in thinking that that would be IT! After reading this information and the posts Im feeling less 'INSANE' and will definately read up on this and talk seriously with my GP on Monday.
Anyone else have the disaproving comments and lectures about 'moving on with things'??? I find it hard, Im a sensitive person.
Oh and I also get a ring like rash on the inside of my elbow and have have bloods confirming that I have arthritis! Theres definately something more to these miscarriages than just bad luck. My protein c resistance was only borderline normal too. So thats the suggestion for next time too, starting the clexane pre-conception. And anything else I can get my hands on too, to get my healthy baby in my arms.
Thanks to all for posting, keep it up cos Im fascinated!
I will reply to you at length - it's insane in this house at the moment with four kids having end of year stuff - and somewhere in between there is my stuff!
Listen to your heart - really really listen - it's never wrong. I am glad this thread has helped you...
Flowerchild- thanks for all the information! I have just read this thread and am finding it helpful.
I am just about to get the results of blood tests for recurrent miscarriage, done through SIVF. I dont know what they are yet, but have been told they aren't all 'normal' so we see our FS (a new one, who agreed to do the tests) on friday to find out what's going on. Nervous but hopeful
Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy. Can I ask you what is Hashimotos? I have done extensive MC testing and I do not think they looked for that one...
