Boy, I wish I was talking about good old peeing on a stick. I keep thinking that if I had listened to my neurotic urge to pee on a stick a few weeks ago, I might have saved this pregnancy. Instead I thought I got my period.
So now I am supposed to start baby aspirin and I'm on strict orders to POAS as soon as I am 10 dpo every month. The doctor just enabled my habit.
Anyway the testing we are talking about is recurrent loss testing. If my miscarriages had been different from one another, the doctor might not have offered it. They happened exactly the same way though, which is disconcerting. It seems to suggest there might be a cause. So I can either stick with the aspirin and start progesterone immediately upon a bfp and hope. Or we can be more proactive and do all the testing. If we don't get answers, it's still the aspirin and progesterone.
So what do I do? test or not test? There's still a possibility that it was just bad luck, but 2 miscarriages in 5 months that happened the exact same way will make anyone worry.
The real question though is whether or not I will have more children?
