Pregnancy Info HOME

I have been reading this thread for a few months. I was really hoping I would be one of the lucky ones who could write a story of good news. However, my story does not end well. I am 25 yrs. old and I have a wonderful 3&1/2 year old son from my first marriage. My first pregnancy was uneventful. However, I have had three miscarriages since my new husband and I started trying to have a baby 9 months ago. Each time I have conceived easily (on the first try) but at nine weeks the ultrasounds have shown an empty sac measuring only 6 weeks. The first miscarriage was natural, the second I had a D&C, and I just found out about the third on Feb. 7th so we are waiting to see if things will happen naturally. With the last pregnancy my HCG was 33 at 4weeks3days but 3 days later it was 191 and 3 days after that it went up to 987. We thought the pregnancy might be viable because the numbers were rising appropriatly. However, an ultrasound at 9 weeks showed an empty sac measuring 6 weeks (just like the previous two mc). We are going to see a geneticist and a reproductive endocrinologist in a few weeks. Has anyone had a similar experience? How long does the workup take? What was the outcome? Is there any hope we will have another baby?
