Trouble conceiving after miscarraige

Well after one perfect child and three consecutive MC (LPD) it doesnt seem fair that we now are having trouble concieving. We have always gotten pregnant first try - four times now, andI am frustrated that my specialist is giving me the '4 months is not a long time some couples take ages to concieve' line. THIS IS NOT THE CASE FOR ME! Why don't Doctors ever believe that we know our own bodies and what is normal for us.
I had medical management of the last MC which is the first time as the previous two occurred naturally. The hospital (mistakenly) thought there were still products inside and admitted me pumping me full of Misoprostyl ever four hours before finally realising nothing else was going to come up. I am now worried that that may have damaged my lining in some way and now we are conceiving but not implanting. I know I am ovulating because we use the testers.
It has now been 6 months since the last MC and who knows how long it will take us to get preg again, and then when we do the changes of going to term arent high. My is this happening to us? Im only 29 it doesnt seem right!

Thanks Amyray. I have done a lot of tests etc and they are pretty sure I have Luteal Phase Defect, which basically means low progesterone, they have given me pills with the last two but it didnt help. There doesnt really seem to be much they can do and have said to just keep trying, but this not conceiving thing has got me worried. As if recurrent miscarraige isnt enough to worry about.

JHS, i am confused, did they give you pills AFTER you were pregnant as I don't see how that would help. Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought with LPD the embryo might be fertilised but then does not have long enough to implant - so you would need to be taking the pills when you were trying to conceive.   But hey I am not a specialist, just a confused person!

Def try some of the tricks you can do to lengthen the luteal phase as it sounds like you have no trouble getting pregnant, just lengthening this should help somewhat?

Also what do you mean you are concieving not implanting? Are you meaning that you are having chemical pregnanices?

Hi there JHS,

I am going through the exact same thing at the moment. I have a wonderful 4yr old boy and have been trying for n0 2 for almost 4 yrs.
I have just had my 2nd progesterone test today (I had to tell my dr that waiting to test till day 21 was the best he didn't really know).
you seem to be a few steps ahead of me though.
My MC's were at 8 weeks and the ectopic was at 7 weeks. I also have had a chemical pregnancy.

People say to get to know your cycle, I think I do but I also wonder if things change from month to month.

I have gone from having strict 30 day cycles to now being pushed out to 36 to 40 days, I used to ov on day 15 and now it more like day 20 21.

Have the Dr's put you on clomid? and are you using creams?
I find it really hard to see the different approaches of different Dr's, completely frustrating!!!
