Ttc with thyroid TPo antibodies

I have had 3 miscarriages in the last couple of years. 1 spontaneous 2 mmc. Always around 6 to 7 weeks. I was given aspirin and progesterone on the last pregnancy but it didn't work. After my 3rd mc I had lots of investigations done and it showed I had high TPO antibodies. Everything else was normal. My TSH or TFTS are all normal so im not on any medication but to help lower the antibodies Im on a gluten free diet. We have been told we can try again but I am terrified of having another loss. It really takes me months to get back to normal. I suffered so much insomnia, stress and ill health after each one. Im also now 40 and although we are trying to conceive, nothing has happened in the last few cycles. Previously all my babies were conceived within 3 cycles. The doctor suggests i try a higher dose of aspirin if i get pregnant and clexane injections(heparin) and progesterone again if i conceive. I have also been put on a higher dose of folic acid at 5mg.

My question is has anyone been through this and gone on to have a healthy child with tpo antibodies/hashimoto's? If so was the child normal and how are you now?

I think it was pregnancy that triggered my hashimoto's or antibodies and a virus but im not sure. Im so terrified im setting myself up for more pain. Would love to hear your stories if you have a similar history. Thank you, Sue
