Feeling unwell early pregnancy after miscarriage.

Hi, new to this and found people’s responses here were so much better than searching google.
I miscarried early December which was confirmed by scan and felt unwell late December dizziness, palpitations, hot and cold really sweaty but cold feet, I was told it was anxiety and possibly panic attacks and also had low vitamin d and low folate levels so on supplements. On returning to doctors this week still feeling unwell all these weeks on I’ve been told my urine tested positive for pregnancy and I’m still experiencing these symptoms which they’re now saying could be labrynthitis.
I feel at a loose end, has anybody else ever experienced similar experiences or even a successful pregnancy after conceiving straight after miscarriage? X

I had positive pregnancy tests for weeks after my first miscarriage. Conceived DC1 a few months later.

I miscarried again 18 months after DC1 was born. Conceived DC2 immediately (I don’t think I even missed a period).

All the best OP.

I’ll never forget the lovely nurse who told me ‘it’s so common, just go home and try again.’

I have a friend who had 3 consecutive miscarriages, after the third they were just about to start investigating whether there was an underlying cause when she fell pregnant. She has 3 DC now. Smile

Sending you bucket loads of luck, OP.

I had a miscarriage starting Dec 2019. miscarried around New Years (can't remember the actual date..).

I happily got pregnant the very next cycle (which was a shock as we'd been trying for a year) and am now holding my 4 month old while she feeds/sleeps..!

The only problems I had conceiving so soon after were:
First, it was super hard for the midwife to calculate due date at the booking appointment. However, my due date was revised at my 12 week scan, confirmed at the 20 week scan and Dd came a few days after the due date so no worries there.
Also, about a month into the pregnancy all of my symptoms disappeared. So, I was terrified I was miscarrying again. False alarm all was fine!!

I hope you are able to work out what's making you feel this way!!
