Hi welshlady644

I'm new here, but I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am to hear of your mcs.  I had a mc when my daughter was 18 months as well, and have been unable to get pg since - almost a year.  I too had a c-section and wonder if that could have had anything to do with it - both the mc and subsequent inability to conceive.  Doctors have told me the c-section should have nothing to do with either.  Best of luck to you, you're in my thoughts....

I have also had 3 m/c in a row.  I don't think the C-section would cause that, but since you've had 3 miscarriages (and all this year), I would definitely see a specialist right away.

My consecutive miscarriages were most likely due to my age -- they were at 38, 39 and most recently in February 2008 at age 40.  In my case its likely poor quality eggs, but its not known for sure.  In your case they may be able to identify an exact problem.  It's possible that getting pregnant so soon after each miscarriage was a factor, although I don't think there are any conclusive studies on that.

I'm so sorry for your losses and hope all goes better in the future.
