How to stop worrying about miscarriages?

[phmcc]

I’m about to start having transfers of euploids that we’ve banked and of course I’m trying to be hopeful and excited. But everywhere I look there’s just stories of miscarriages, how it didn’t implant, or implanted and then miscarried after heartbeat. It’s about a month until my transfer but I’m already a nervous wreck! For every story of a live birth I seem to come across 2-3 stories of miscarriages and adverse outcomes.

honestly it’s impossible not to worry but a euploid is more likely to implant than not implant. And with more than 1 euploid your chances of a live birth are even better. Obviously there is no guarantee but if you are making euploid embryos you have the best chance. Wishing you lots of luck.

I'm not sure I can give any useful advice on tackling the, very understandable, fear of a miscarriage, but just wanted to offer some solidarity and wish you all the very best on your journey, I kno how hard it can be.
We welcomed our longed for baby girl 8 weeks ago, she is perfect and we are totally in love. She was conceived via IVF and, thankfully, the whole pregnancy was very straightforward and uncomplicated for both of us. I had regular scans and consultations as I am considered high risk, but even the constant reassurance that all was fine didn't stop me from being a nervous wreck throughout the pregnancy and being constantly convinced that something was going to go wrong. I suffer with anxiety at the best of times but this was another level. So I'm not sure if you will ever be able to totally shake the fear of miscarriage but, at least for me, I became a little less anxious later on in pregnancy when I could finally feel her moving. The first 12 weeks felt like the longest months of our lives but, after that, the rest of the pregnancy seemed to pass in the blink of an eye so it does get easier!

I would take every story of miscarriage as in context to a couples medical history, it's impossible to compare as you have your own history which may not look anything like theirs. Euploids have a better chance of success, I'm currently 31 weeks pregnant with my second euploid, the first one is my 15 month little boy. Good luck x

If you have a euploid it is much more likely not to result in miscarriage unless you have known issues with your uterus or immune response. Once you hear a heartbeat, the miscarriage risk with a euploid falls to about 5%.
