Laura, I too had two previous miscarriages at 5&6wks. My husband and I had a fertility work up done and come to find out, my progesterone level was low, so my doctor put me on progesterone suppositories. I also took baby aspirin. My doctor did not advise me to do this, I did it on my own. I am now 15wks and all looks well. I'm not sure if it was the progesterone or the aspirin, but I'm thankful for whatever it was. Good Luck.
