People with lupus who also have the clotting antibodies are the ones that are more prone to miscarry. So if you do not have anticardiolipin or lupus anticoagulant antibodies as part of your lupus positive blood tests, then you should not be much more likely to miscarry than the average woman. I would be sure those tests have been run, as well as Leiden Factor V before doing the IVF process to ensure you get the best possible care given this is a one-shot deal for you.
Sorry to hear of losing your other pregnancy, especially under the circumstances if I'm understanding them correctly. Hope you've gotten rid of that loser responsible for that!
As for preparing to have a baby, that should ideally start a few months before trying to conceive by eating very healthy diet with lots of fruits/vegetables and healthy grains and protein. It is important to get enough folic acid in your diet through fortified foods or a basic multivitamin or a prenatal vitamin too, this is most important before getting pregnant as well as during the early months of pregnancy. There are many websites out there give excellent advice on prenatal care/diet, a quick google search should produce many for you
Best wishes to you!
