My OB has agreed to do every and any blood test under the sun on Dh and I to find out if there is a problem causing us to keep m/c. I think I have the world's best OB ever right now! She said she's BTDT and no way is she going to let me wait to m/c again when clearly something is not connecting right.
I'm really scared though of the answers. DH put it this way "if they find out its a translocation, what is the solution?" I have no idea! I mean, IVF/IUI? We can't afford that. She thinks my hormones are fine because I've had blood work drawn in the past and all my levels were normal. My body was doing things right until something happened. She said it sounds like either a translocation or a clotting disorder.
I did ask her about the ABO incompatability and she actually knew what I was talking about! She said she'd put money on the translocation or clotting disorder first, but if those come back normal then she would bet that is playing a bigger role in my recurrent losses. of course, it is just a matter of doing the blood work and going from there.
I'm hopeful and optimistic that maybe, just maybe we'll eventually have another child. I really, really hope. It is so frustrating because everyone says that my body worked right once, and will again. Deep down, I feel like my body just got itself together that one time for DD. And I'm so thankful my body did, but frustrated at every other time my body didn't.
