    This was helpful, thank you!
    I’ve had 4 miscarriages: #1 I didn’t collect the tissue, #2 had two chromosomal abnormalities (monosomy X and trisomy 5), #3 had one chromosomal abnormality (trisomy 22), and #4 had normal chromosomes.
    I tested slightly positive for one of the things they tested for in the clotting disorder workup- and the plan was to retest in X amount of time. I got pregnant again, and then I got retested- again slightly positive. That was baby/miscarriage #4.
    Went to the IVF place to see what advice they could give for recurrent miscarriage and they did a bunch of tests too. Turns out I’m heterozygous for Factor II.
    Talking to a maternal fetal medicine doc in the morning (and a Hemotologist next month) and just trying to research as much as possible before those conversations!!

      Sorry for your loss. Ensure you have proper nutrition and nutrients i.e. B vitamins (B6/B12) and omega's are key. We have genetic testing that we use to help to support methylation pathways to improve pregnancy outcomes.

      I'm so sorry. I know your pain. I had my 4th miscarriage in July just gone ( 4th miscarriage in 1 year and 9 months). I've done so many tests, gynaecologist says there are no issues with me. I've been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis since 2020, and a recent blood test done by the Rheumatology clinic found I may have the lupus anticoagulant antibody. A quick Google search, and I found it often leads to reoccurrent Miscarriages!
      Hopefully, this is some sort of answer to my pain and can help with finding a treatment so that I can stay pregnant.

      @@jls141992 my maternal fetal medicine doc said that if I have a RA flare around time of conception/ early pregnancy, then I’m 2-3 times more likely to miscarry! He also said if it VERY important to get and keep my RA under control before and during pregnancy, as the extra inflammation of a flare during pregnancy could harm baby (ie stillborn, increased risks of other problems).
      My Mom passed in March 2024 and that extra stress had made my RA flare a LOT between then and now. Finally (as of 2 weeks ago) I feel like I’m not flaring anymore. Our goal is to get 2 to 3 months out from *my last flare up* (even if that means restarting the countdown) to start trying again.
      I’m SO SORRY that you had to go through so many losses too. It sucks. God Willing next baby will stick and be healthy!
