Are miscarriages hereditary?

My mother before having me had a miscarriage and then was able to have me.  I experience a miscarriage a while back and now I am pregnant again. Another friend of mine had the same experience as well. Does anybody know or have had similar experiences???

No one in my family has had a miscarriage but me. I'm not sure its hereditary since its usually an abnormal chromosome that causes a miscarriage and that can come from either side. But I'm not sure but maybe throwing that chromosome is family related.

I'm not sure what the answer to that question is. I know my mom miscarried before having me. Then 2 years ago I  miscarried and am pregnant again...I dunno...
