Re: Pregnancy simarilarities and question

[Guest guest]

I've already replied earlier to say that I was 34 when I had Maddie and it was

my first pregnancy, for the record she was planned and I was pregnant within a

month and haven't had any fertility problems or medication. She is not UPD7.

I'm not surprised that mis-carriage and SGA are linked, particularly where the

cause is genetic, I read that 1/10th of female children miscarried have 's

syndrome. What I'm saying is that genetic problems are estimated to cause a

high proportion of miscarriages.

Interesting possible link with IVF & clomid, although it may be connected to

higher probability of miscarriage. In other words people who have had many

miscarriages may struggle to have children and need fertility treatment later

for example due to age, rather than the explanation that clomid/IVF may cause

RSS & miscarriage.

Does anyone know what proportion of pregnancies are IVF in the US and what

proportion to mothers taking Clomid, these may just be more common treatments

than I had realised.

Thanks,

I know we previously did a survey regarding how many mothers used

infertility drugs etc. I don't remember the results. However,

without knowing the percentage of the total population that uses

infertility drugs we can't know how we relate.
