We should not be comparing one pain to another. So you have not had multiple miscarriages or waited years to get pregnant–so what. You want to be pregnant, and you lost your baby recently. That’s enough in my book–you can join the club. (Hope you aren’t here for long though.)

No one knows what your outcome will be and so for now you have to run with the best decision you can make for yourself right now. Your situation has not progressed to the state that would warrant further testing. Recurrent miscarriages would warrant further testing. You do not have the diagnosis of recurrent miscarriage so your decision is a sound decision.

You will know in your heart of hearts when it is time for further testing. And more than likely it won’t even end up being something you have to consider.

Please don’t feel guilty. I know it’s hard not to compare your situation to other’s, but pain is pain. And I echo the previous poster’s comment: What’s important is doing what’s right for you. No one else can tell you what that is any better than you can tell yourself.

FOR YOU. And that’s all that matters. Even when you’ve done the research it can be really hard coming to a decision when the outcomes are all so uncertain and the information you have to go on is incomplete and/or inconclusive. I totally understand. I think a lot of us struggle with that.

I’m sure you know, somewhere, that there is no “only one” miscarriage. At least, I hope so. I’m sorry for your loss and wish you the best for your future.
