Anyone out there already seeing a high risk MFM?
My MFM appointment is scheduled for September 17th. I am 9w5d pregnant with my 6th pregnancy. I have one living child who is 13 and 4 concurrent losses over 10 years TTC .
Turns out I have a severe clotting disorder that raises my changes of miscarriage to anywhere from 89-100%! How has this never been found out in my 10+ years of TTC?! I’m so thankful for the office I have found, but at the same time so angry at all the providers that have let me down.

I have fibroids and didn’t know so that plus my age (39) and a history of loss due to premature labor in June where I had an incompetent cervix and a cerclage (3 weeks before my water broke), I will be with them as well.
It’s frustrating to be kept in the dark about your body when you feel like you could’ve avoided so many things if you had known. Wishing you all the luck and love
Andie and Candace - thank you for chiming in. It’s nice to know we aren’t alone is this craziness of loss and pregnancy. I sincerely hope we all get to meet our rainbow babies and hold them in our arms. ♥️

I am so sorry that it took this long for you to be diagnosed! Is there any treatment that will help? I was recently diagnosed with endometriosis and had recurrent losses over 3 years while we were trying. I remember feeling the same frustration that it took so long to be diagnosed for something that is so common - I can’t imagine going through that for 10 years!
