Question: I am 43 years old and my husband and I started trying to start a family knowing it was a long shot at my age. We conceived naturally the first time at 42 and it only took two months then I miscarried at 8 weeks the heartbeat stopped (during this pregnancy my HCG levels never doubled but all ultrasounds were normal. We waited about three months and started trying Then because of my travel schedule at work we were missing my ovulation so we decided to try a scheduled IUI on March 13th 2015 it worked the first time and everything started out great my HCG numbers doubled then stopped doubling but steady rising I had four ultrasounds 5weeks normal 6 weeks fetal pole with heartbeat 7 weeks normal with HB at 140 and HCG numbers were up to 36,000 I also started on Progesterone because my levels went from 18.5 to 8.3 but doctor was not concerned. Then on Monday I went for my 8.3 week because a had a decrease in pregnancy symtoms and the Dr. could not find a heartbeat and baby measured at 8 weeks so he stated the heart stopped over the weekend. Now that this is my second miscarriage should I see a different kind of specialist if I conceive again my current Dr is a reproductive endocrinologist. 2nd question is the last miscarriage I had a D&E and the recovery was quick and easy I don't think I can wait to miscarry naturally would having another D&E be ok if I plan on trying one more time? I am going for labs today to check if my HCG levels are dropping then plan on scheduling a D&E I have no bleeding or cramping as of today
