If you have had a couple of miscarriages, this site talks about tests
that can be done (your local price range will probably differ)and may
throw some light on your situation. At least in NZ it would be better
than waiting until the third loss before you are eligible for treatment
at the re-current miscarriage clinics where it is usually 3 miscarriages
before they will consider accepting you onto their programme.

I have also felt the grief of losing a baby to miscarriage and
out of that grieving and healing process I have created a necklace
that is specifically for grieving mothers. It is a small genuine
forget me not flower captured in a resin and sterling silver
heart. From the bottom a charm (or charms, if one has experienced
multiple losses), dangles in birthstone colour. I would
have loved to have had this necklace in the midst of my grief,
and it is my heartfelt wish that it helps other greiving mothers.
Sincerely,
