I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. Have you had repeat pregnancy loss testing? I somehow managed to carry my son to term and then had 3 losses when TTC #2. After seeing some bad doctors who "supposedly" (but really didn't) tested me for everything miscarriage related, I finally found a good one who did the right tests and found that I am compound heterozygous MTHFR and protein S deficient. Both of these are associated with blood clotting so I will need to be on heparin (blood thinner) next time I get pregnant. I also need to be on a lot of extra folic acid because with MTHFR the body is unable to properly process folic acid. So anyway, if you haven't already had all the testing, I recommend getting it. ((hugs)) I hope you are able to get some answers and never have to go through this again.
