    Second trimester miscarriage
    Hi everyone,

    I had a miscarriage today my 3rd so heartbreaking I was almost 19 weeks, I can't figure out what went wrong. Here's the history on my latest pregnancy, week 9 I had brown discharge, week 13 slight bleeding for 30 min then stopped, week 18 plus a few days light spotting after urinating, can't figure out why I lost this baby, a few hours before I started to have contractions the baby's heartbeat was strong and it was active, I still miscarried and when I delivered the gestatinal sack was still intact. Anybody have any expereince similar to this.

    A greiving mom to be

    I haven't had anything close to what you've experienced. I've miscarried once, I was exactly 3 months pregnant.

    Have the doctors done any test to determine why this keeps happening?

    I'm so sorry for your loss, it's hard, I know. I wish you all the best. :)

    So sorry that you have had to go through this again. If they haven't already, as Altenweg said, they will likely do some testing. Sometimes it is not done until after a third miscarriage. It could be a situation of just not knowing why, but they will check things such as your progesterone level and blood clotting issues among other possibilities.
    Wishing you every success in the future.
