Nothing really to report. Just biding my time I guess. I should (hopefully) hear from my OBGYN on Monday and find out what to do next. My husband and I have taken a logical approach to our situation. It seems that I can get pregnant just fine since I've done it 4 times in the last 2 years (that we know of) so it wouldn't make sense really to try IUI or IVF since that is just a fancy way of getting pregnant. What I need is to stay pregnant. I thought the progesterone suppositories were suppose to help with that. But after this last loss I'm not too confident about it anymore. So I guess I just wait to hear from my doctor and see if we'll get an appointment with a fertility specialist.
I'm not going to bother with clomid this month or the progesterone.
I need a break.

I just recently found your blog, and haven't read too far back, but I just wanted to let you know that I am in a similar position. (Misery loves company, right?) My husband and I have decided to forego clomid/ivf, etc, at least for now, because quite clearly we can get pregnant. If you haven't been tested for clotting/immune/genetic disorders, insist on it. Forgive me if that's rude, or if you already have, but so many doctors dismiss us RPL survivors, and need to be pushed. My RE is the best thing that ever happened to me (besides hubby!)
I do have a clotting issue, my doctor did blood testing after Isabella died. Check my label section under "antiphospholipid antibody syndrome". I was glad that he did the testing then instead of waiting for more losses, but supposedly that's only a problem in the second trimester which I haven't reached since Isabella. Sean was 9 weeks and then my last 2 were barely blips. Hopes up just be to quickly dashed away.
Thanks for checking in, I'll be sure to look at your blog in the morning.
SHannon, I'm just so sorry. How awful to have to go through all this with no real answers or solutions in sight.
No advice, just lots of good thoughts your way.
