Almost 3 years ago I had a son Tobie who was born with anencephaly.
He lived 5 days. The year before that pregnancy I had two
miscarraiges.
Before all of those loses I had two healthy sons. This is my first
pregnancy since my loss and loses.
I am just pregnant at 1 month. I am so worried because I know that
how important this time of my pregnancy is. I had two miscarraiges
and I wonder if those children were anencephalic. Then, with my
pregnancy with Tobie I was low on progesterone Tobie and I thought I
was going to miscarry again so I asked the Doctor to put me on
progesterone. I don't know if, at that point, my body knew something
was wrong and I should have not taken the progesterone. I don't know
what to do I am concerned that if I start to miscarry or have low
progesterone...do I get progesterone or assume something is wrong and
not "force the issue
I have been on folic acid since Sept....I hope this helps. I just
think this next month or so is going to be REALLY SCAREY.
For those of you who have been pregnant after having a child with
anen...what did you do differently? What did you doctor do?
Thank you for your help,
Jennifer
