I have read the posts that dated back to 2005, but I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the difference is between the heterozygous and homozygous mutations are?

I lost my second pregnancy back in September and have been waiting for the results of all the tests my doctor ran. I just went in on Tuesday, and was praying the whole time that it was just bad luck. Unfortunately, my doctor informed me that I have MTHFR homozygous C677T. He referred me to a REI and Genetic specialist, and my appointment is in 3 weeks. In the meantime is there something I should be doing, or taking? Has anyone else had this problem and gone on to healthy children? I'm just trying to get as much information about this before I go to the Specialist so I know what to expect...
