  • Another Miscarriage. Is Something Wrong With Me?

    QUESTION

    Dear Midwife,
    I went off birth control in December of 2001. I had been on the pill for fairly consistently 14 years to keep my face clear of pimples. Eight months after going off the pill in December of 2001, I got pregnant. I miscarried at 11 weeks. That was in November 2002. I got pregnant again in March of 2003 and am now miscarrying again at 6 weeks. Is there something wrong with me? I am 35 and really want to have a baby.

    Do you have any idea what it is like to be given the first bit of hope you've had in months? Well, let me tell you it is an amazing feeling. I feel like after last week, this week, I am floating on air. Guess you want to know what this is all about, huh.

    It has been two weeks since my last entry. I never seem to have the time to sit down and write like I should. Between my ever challenging daughter, doctor appointments, work around the house...and well...everything these days, I never have the time.

    Wow! What a week it has been. As I wrote last week, we had our follow up appointment with the RE on Tuesday. The smile has not left my face since then. All of our test results came back normal except for the blocked tube on the HSG.
