Melissa Harris - IUI After Recurrent Miscarriage Including Twin Pregnancy Loss | #063

Episode 63

Monday, September 13, 2021 • Duration 25:44

In episode #063, Melissa Harris shares her story of personal loss. After an easy and uneventful pregnancy, she expected growing her family would be equally simple. When she went in for her first ultrasound with her second pregnancy, she was shocked to learn that there was no heartbeat.

After that loss, Melissa encountered secondary infertility. They went to a fertility specialist after six months of trying, and it was then that Melissa discovered she was a "reproductive nightmare". She didn't ovulate every cycle, she had an incompetent cervix, she had a tilted uterus, and her uterus was bicornuate, with a septum creating two distinct chambers.

With the help of Letrizole, Melissa became pregnant with twins. Unfortunately, she lost both twins (at different points in the pregnancy). After taking time to grieve that loss, they opted for one more round of IUI with the fertility doctor. Melissa was able to conceive her son, and that pregnancy ending in a premature birth prompted her to write her book about her experiences, titled One Pound, Twelve Ounces (to be released in November 2021).

Topics Discussed: missed miscarriage, secondary infertility, inconsistent ovulation, tilted uterus, incompetent cervix, bicornuate uterus, uterine septum surgery, Letrizole, twin pregnancy loss, Vanishing Twin Syndrome, intrauterine insemination (IUI), pregnancy after miscarriage, premature birth

We discuss Kim's decision to continue to try for a baby, the need to grieve and heal from a loss, and the feelings that may arise for the partner coping with a miscarriage.

Samantha Caesar-Johnson: Miscarriage During COVID-19 Quarantine | #058

Episode 58

Monday, August 9, 2021 • Duration 49:33

In episode #058, Samantha Caesar-Johnson shares her story of recurrent miscarriage during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her first pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage at 9 weeks. She decided to get a D & C, but she contracted COVID-19 and had to push her date a few weeks. While quarantining from her husband, she began to naturally miscarry at home. Ultimately, she still had to have the procedure, as it was not a complete natural miscarriage.

When she got pregnant again a couple months later, she experienced another miscarriage. This prompted Samantha and her husband to seek genetic and fertility testing, all of which came back normal. Testing after her miscarriage revealed that Samantha may have had low progesterone, and she is still awaiting some results. Samantha hopes her story can make a difference for others who may be going through similar circumstances.

Topics Discussed: Missed miscarriage, recurrent miscarriage, recurrent pregnancy loss, COVID-19 diagnosis, miscarriage during COVID-19, miscarriage during quarantine, dilation and curettage (D & C), low progesterone, intimacy after pregnancy loss, vaginismus, genetic testing, fertility testing
