Weird question about miscarriages and chromosomal abnormalities?

Create a video blog…instantly.

No, its just on a “whim” so to speak. I have 2 healthy kids, and I am currently 35 weeks and 3 days pregnant with #3. He has a chromosome abnormality. The genetic counselor explained that its like rolling dice…..so the answer to your question is no. my husband and I have a healthy 6 year old girl, and healthy 2 year old boy. I did spot at the beginning of my pregnancy with this one, I guess my body was trying to miscarry…but my son is strong and he is still hangin in there

Well, I know with my cousin she carried her first baby 9 years ago without any trouble, then a couple years later when she was pregnant with the 2nd baby they determined the baby was anemic or something. They claimed a simple blood transfusion would fix it no problem, then all of a sudden he got sicker and the baby ended up dying for no apparent reason. A few months later she was pregnant again and they found the same thing. This time she refused to let them do anything to her or the baby to “fix” the problem and the baby was born without any problems and is a healthy 4.5 year old today. She was born a month early, and they did give her some blood after she was born, but the only thing wrong with her was she was small. The theory was that her first child (who is almost 9) had all these same “problems” but it wasn’t detected and is just something that happens with the combination of her DNA and her husband’s DNA. I also know that a couple for example= wife has Negative blood and the husband has positive blood, their first baby will be fine but any after that will either be miscarriages or have severe birth defects or lifelong medical problems. I know all this because my husband is A+ (rare I guess?) and I am O+, or maybe he is A- and I am O- haha whichever combination I was worried our rare blood would cause problems for a baby but I was told since we are both – or both + it isn’t a problem that we are so rare.
I knew another lady that had her first baby fine, then kept losing babies after just a couple weeks of being pregnant. She was lacking some antibody and they told her to take 1 childrens asprin everyday and she would get pregnant. About a year later, she had her son and just last year they had another baby, total surprise and no problems.
So I guess yes, it is possible for the genes of 2 people to be so different or mix badly that it is impossible for the babies to be carried to term. I babysat for a couple where she could only carry girls, she would miss carry after 3 months if she was carrying a boy, which happened 3 times. I knew another woman who had a daughter first try (who had severe learning disabilities and slight CP) and she lost about 8 babies before getting pregnant with another. Sadly I don’t know how that baby is doing but as far as I know she carried it to term.
Every miscarriage is not because of one of these situations, sometimes the egg was too old, the uterus not positioned correctly, taking birth control before discovering the pregnancy, many things can cause a miscarriage.
Hope this helps answer your question

Well I don’t know a whole lot in detail about miscarriages but I did have one last year & was sent through blood tests & everything to try to nip any problems early. Everything was normal. Some woman’s bodies do reject the fetus as a foreign threat to the body so the white blood cells fight it off. I think it is also possible for the man to carry a certain trait in his blood that the woman’s body will reject.
