Pregnancy after a M/C?

the last time around.. the MC happened during the "danger zone" the first 12 weeks.. you are 14 now?!?!? CONGRATS!! you have less than 5% chance now.. SO ENJOY!!

I understand what you're going through -- the anxiety must be terrible. I had 6 miscarriages before I had my son. And 7 years later when I was pregnant with my daughter, the hurt and frustration of those previous miscarriages was still in my mind....I worried through the first half of my pregnancy with her. Most people don't realize just how emotionally hurtful a miscarriage can be. All I can say is bask in the sound of the heartbeat! Do what your doctor advises, eat right and everything else that a pregnant woman should do. There is no way really to assuage your anxiety -- it will go away on it's own when you feel this pregnancy is "safe." Ask your doctor to do sonograms routinely so that you can see the baby's progress -- THAT will help a lot....it sure did for me.

Yes it is very normal to be worried about having another miscarriage. I had one over 4 years ago now and I still worry every time that I am pregnant that something is going to happen even though I'm reassured that everything is fine. I Wish you the best of luck.

I know what you are going through. I had a miscarriage in April and now I am 19 weeks pregnant and I worry everyday. I do not have any children though. It is ok to worry, but do not let it consume you. Think hopeful thoughts, but if you feel that something is wrong call your doctor. Its your mother's instinct to worry. Hope that your pregnancy goes well.

Hunny, it is completely normal to worry. Who wouldn't after going through what you have? Your risk of having another M/C is much lower. Just try to take things in stride, let every heartbeat be another reassuring milestone, every u/s be another happy milestone. Buy a doppler to hear it yourself when you are in doubt. Try to keep your chin up, remember to breathe, and remember, there is NOTHING you could have done for your last baby. Sometimes things just go awry and your body takes care of it. Keep your chin up and I'll be crossing my fingers for you. Enjoy this as much as possible and when you feel stressed, grab that doppler and be happy :)

The female body is an amazing machine. I know women who have had 5 miscarriages, and gone on to have very healthy normal pregnancies and children afterwards. Take care your self. HUGS!

It is normal to worry but u need to chil out before something does happen to the baby b/c it your not clam your BP will rise and that is not a good thing

i had a miscarriage Jan of 05 and was pregnant again Feb of 05 and i had a beautiful healthy baby boy he just turned 2! just because you have had one doesnt mean you will have another. i know its hard to not worry i know i did to, just know that a healthy pregnancy can happen after a MC

congrats and good luck.

Same boat here...12 weeks along, had a m/c May 2, and am terrified that when I go in next week, there wont be a heart beat..You are not alone!!!

why not relax and see yourself carrying your third child.Anxiety will do u no good.All the best.
