Tests

[Hulmesy]

Hi what tests did you have when at fertility clinic ? I feel like they aren’t taking us serious I’ve been trying for 3 years and palmed off every chance they get ☹️ the only test I have had done is to see if I am compatible with my husband and that came back fine. We’ve had 7 loses and no closer to getting any answers ☹️☹️☹️

That's awful. I'm so sorry to hear everything you've gone through. Unfortunately it seems to be a familiar story that people are palmed off by medical staff in this industry. I don't know why they are so uncaring and offer so little help and support with such a terribly difficult situation. I haven't got as far as a fertility clinic yet (I've had 2 m/c over 2 years; we were just about to get a referral when I fell pregnant for the second time so I guess we'll be back to square one now) so can't offer any advice on tests, just wanted to give you my support.

I hope you get some care and some answers xxxx

I'm so sorry for your losses. I can't imagine what you've been through. After mine they did chromosome testing along with thyroid and also a test to make sure blood was clotting correctly. This was all they seemed to offer on the NHS. I was never offered any testing on the baby or placenta and from what I can gather it still seems to be a postcode lottery as to how much help and support you receive. 6 months after my loss I'm finally offered an appointment to talk about options but they seem to now be pushing for clinics abroad and doner eggs because of my age. I hope you get some answers soon xx

Ah yes you’ve just reminded me I have had chromosome testing and thyroid testing too just a joke waiting all this time with no answers and they say “oh just a case of bad luck” is so disheartening to hear xx

you're right but then there's bad luck and then bad luck taken to a whole new level. It's hard when you don't get answers. I'm now at the point where my last mc was so traumatic I don't want to get pregnant again plus the fact that in my eyes my body has killed 4 babies so don't want it to happen again 😞
