What caused your recurrent miscarriages?

My husband and I have had no trouble getting pregnant, but staying pregnant hasn't happened. My first pregnancy, the baby stopped growing at 6w+1d. Second pregnancy, twins stopped growing at 6w+1d. We did a lot of tests on me, everything came back fine. Third pregnancy, we finally got a heartbeat, we were sure this one was the one. I took progesterone and low dose aspirin the whole pregnancy. She stopped growing at 9w+5d (give or take a few days). Her fetal tests came back normal.

It's taken us about 2 months of trying each time to get pregnant, we are both 31. I'm wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and I'm curious what was the "problem". Next steps are meeting with a specialist and getting my husband's sperm tested. I'd just love to hear other people's experiences, I could use a little bit of hope. I read somewhere that only 50% of people who have recurrent losses find the cause and that freaks me out, we want a healthy baby so badly.
