Struggling

Have you been tested for celiac disease. It can cause unexplained infertility/miscarriage.

So sorry to hear you are going through this. I have one child who is a miracle. Before my separation I have been pregnant a total of 4 times.I had DD 7 then lost the others. The doctors couldn't find any reason why I kept miscarrying. The last time I made it to 13 weeks and lost the baby and had to have a DNC. I decided after that that I couldn't go through it anymore. They think that I have secondary infertility for no apart reason. I was on bed rest from 5 months on with DD who is now 7. So I know the heartbreak of losing. Hugs and keep trying as long as you feel you can. I think that fostering is a great idea. I was a foster child for about 3 and half years on and off in my teens, and because there wasn't enough homes I lived in a group home. So there is always children in need.

hi,
My Dh and I went through 7 years of extensive testing, and 12 miscarriages because doctors kept telling me they couldn't find any reason and to keep trying. Funny enough, 8 years later during an ultrasound for an infected fallopian tube, the gyno I was seeing told me that she figured out why I had miscarried all those times. Turns out I have a very slightly heart shaped uterus. Unfortunately, it's impossible to fix, and will cause miscarriages because it cannot expand with the baby's growth. I truly hope this isn't the cause for you, but we spent lots of money and saw specialist all over the U.S. only to find out it was something so obvious. Sometimes they overlook the very obvious looking for some clotting disorder. We even had both of our DNA mapped to make sure that we weren't conceiving babies with some sort of awful problem that would cause them to abort. Good luck to you. We are also looking into foster care.
