Follow up appointment this week...

Its our follow up appointment coming up on wednesday.. which really should have been our viability scan @8+4 wks.. i am feeling quite nervous although theres no longer a pregnancy. I really wish i could go to this appointment without my DH lol as he's planning on having a go at the consultant.

I guess we both want someone to blame but I've explained over and over the consultant done his end of the bargain, we did actually get pregnant and a MC can happen to anyone whether its a Natural or IVF conception.

Anyway... ladies that have been in my position before do you have any advise or questions we should ask?

Any suggestions for medications that could prevent me having another MC?... i know I'm probably asking a million dollar question but i think this will be our second and final shot. It hit us quite hard as MC was the last thing on my mind when we began this journey.

We still have 3 frozen embryos 2 day 5 and 1 day 6 Blast...

I was on lubion injections twice a day.. (tummy)

Even once my HCG dropped low to 20 my progesterone was still so high, so i wouldn't think progesterone was the cause of loss.

Please recommend anything that you think worked for you. x

I had a MC detected at first viability scan - the consultant said that at least I got pregnant, which in my eyes is a very small consolation. She was unable to say why we had a MC, we are not offered a follow up appointment to discuss anything, we just book in to have our last FET.

I’m assuming I will do the same again and have it transferred in my natural cycle with the help of cyclogest.

I spoke with a friend of mine who is a maternity ward nurse, she said that MC is more common then you would think, I would say if you are both healthy with no underlying fertility problems, so In the unexplained fertility category, like myself and my husband then there will be no set questions to ask, or routes to take. The only questions you may have will be from your meeting with your consultant. It’s probably not the answer your looking for but I wish you well with your journey

Thnx for responding... sorry for your loss... we seem to be in the same boat as our next cycle will be our last unless we win the lottery

The more I read the more I’ve come to realise how many women suffer MC...

The sad reality is this could actually happen all over again to us with our next cycle. I’ve also read no investigations will be done until u have 3 in a row 🤯😵

Tubal damage was our only problem identified so far...

All the best of luck to you x
