Hi Sara, I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry. I know it's a really difficult thing you are going through. I'm in somewhat the same boat as far as stats go - 36.5 years old, have a healthy 17 mo. old and had my first miscarriage in January at 8.5 weeks. They didn't do any testing at all on me either, it was just assumed that it was 'one of those things' - probably genetic given my age, but miscarriages are so common, who knows? I think I agree with the last poster who said she'd get some testing done were it to happen a second time, given our 'advanced ages'. ; )

Take care, you're not alone in this. -Lynn F.
