Well here it is miscarriage #3, really not bad at all this time, other than not being able to sleep, because of all the "thinking" at 4 am about all the things I plan on doing...... I welcome Shellys baby dust because I'm not ready to give it up just yet, I probably just need some new eggs because my eggs are 46 years old, but I don't have the pocket book for that. A magic pill would help....maybe some magic fairy dust. Not sure what to do just yet other than keep moving forward one day at a time and letting my body heal.
Thank you all for your positive emails, really feels good knowing I'm not the only one.
I did read somewhere about some uterus cleansing tea, miscarriage cleanse tea, if anyone knows about it I would like the info on it.
Also I would like to here any stories about my options , what others have done, egg Donner, IVF. I seem to get pregnant once a year, same time too, when my husband come back from hunting...lol! Anyway, my time is running short and cant wait til next year.
E.
Thanks you all
I am sorry E. to hear about your loss. Mental hug given!
My heart aches for you as I remember my own first experience with miscarriage. Should you get pregnant again don't wait to go to the doctor. Go early and have your progestron (sp) level checked and looking for a heart beat as early as possible . Then they can check it again to make sure it's not dropping. I had to do injections my second pregnancy because mine dropped low enough to cause concern. My first pregnancy started out with all physical feelings and then they gradually went away and I miscarried before I ever got to the doctors. I just knew something was wrong and I wasn't going to mess around and lose another baby with out making every effort I could.In my experience I found doctors to laid back about this stuff and you just have to ask for what you want and they'll provide. My entire second pregnancy was full of stress and worry and in the beginning I was at the doctors almost every week. Hope that info helps . Best wishes
I am so sorry! It never gets any easier! I've had 4 miscarriages and one ectopic pregnancy. My body just wasn't' ready to carry a baby- I wasn't healthy enough. My sister gave me Women's Dong Quai Treasure to take(a Chinese supplement to help restore female reproductive balance) you can't take it while you are pregnant. I also started eating more fruits and veggies and taking prenatal. I just needed a healthier body to support pregnancy. It's not a magic pill that will guarantee pregnancy, but it can help you to restore balance in your system which is sometimes all you might need.
I wish you the best! Hugs!

acupuncture will heal your body, and help with fertility, and keep you healthy throughout your pregnancy. It also gives you back the control over your health in general, and your fertility. "Fertility Wisdom" helps you gain control over your own fertility as well. You have control over your health. Use it. I tried to get pregnant with #2 for 2 1/2 years. With acupuncture I was pregnant in two weeks, and I kept going to acupuncture and had a very healthy and comfortable pregnancy. At 40. Best of everything and happy holidays.
E.,
I am so sorry for your loss and sorry these condolences are coming so late. Just wanted to mention a book if you haven't already read it called Inconceivable by Julia Indichova. The author had her second child at 44 and went through a lot to make it happen. Its very well written. She also has a website called fertileheart.com. You probably know all about this but in case you didn't just wanted to pass it on. All the best to you.
I met a lady on Saturday who became pregnant with the help of the same supplement my family takes. She and her husband have been trying for nine years, and her docs acknowledged that her pregnancy is definitely in part because of the supplement. It is not a "magic pill" and certainly there is no guarantee... But, let me know if you'd like more info.
I am so sorry for your loss... You will be in my prayers...
I just wanted to say that I am so sorry for your losses. I've had 3 as well, so I know it's hard. ((Hugs)).
I'm sorry E.. I went through five invitros and two donors before becoming pregnant at 46. It has taken a huge financial toll. I have three friends in my age range going through the process now. One has been through two donors and the last attempt was a devastating failure, which the doctors felt was very hopeful and can't figure out why it didn't work. The donor gave 22 eggs, six fertilized and progressed and were healthy. The two implanted didn't take, and only one froze. Circumstances could not have been better. Another friend with much financial resources has been through five donors which have all been rejected. Another on her second. It makes me mad that it all sounds so easy. This process is not. But we all try because when that miracle happens it is so wonderful. There are many women your age trying and each road is different. I also know a two women who had success with the very first donor and don't know what to do with the many left over embryos. Make sure to talk to a reputable doctor about different options. Ask if there is financial support, maybe a study you can get on. I wish you the very best.
