Unfortunately, miscarriages are quite common, with one in six pregnancies ending before 20 weeks of pregnancy and are very emotionally distressing to mothers and couples.

Miscarriage can happen to mothers at any age but is more common in older mums especially from the age of 35. Most patients will then go on to have a healthy baby next time but three or more consecutive miscarriages can happen in about 2% of women trying to have a baby.
