Hi all,
I miscarried at the end of April, I didn't wait for my next period to try again. I started ovulation strips to confirm ovulation. I got a faint positive on a first response test a couple of days ago. I then started getting cramps and started bleeding today. So the faint positive must have been a chemical, as it completely disappeared. My question is, would I be entitled to some support now? I will message my GP tomorrow, I just wondered if anyone had a similar experience. Thank you in advance x

From what an OB told me (after I had gone through my first miscarriage) she told me they wouldn't look into it till it happens 3 times in a row.

The updated guidelines say they should start investigations after 2 miscarriages but different providers may or may not be up to date and may or may not count miscarriages that were never clinically recognized

After my second chemical pregnancy I asked the GP to do a full round of bloods to check if anything was wrong which they did do for me. They couldn't refer me to recurrent loss clinic unless I had had 3 in a row so was then referred after my ectopic pregnancy x

I had a miscarriage then chemical then a silent miscarriage where I didn’t know till I went to hear the heart beat. I do have a 3 year old I had all this after but I could only stay pregnant being on a fertility medication is how I got to have her
