Hi everyone, i am devastated and just wanted to see if anyone has any advice. I misarried my first pregnancy on Monday and just tested negative. I would have been 5 weeks pregnant.
Does anyone have a success story when they've had a healthy pregnancy straight after an early miscarriage? I didn't bleed all that much I think because it was so early on and I really want to ttc ASAP. I don't know if I have to wait until after my first period or not. We ttc for 3 months before this pregnancy and the bleeding has stopped now.
Thanks xx

It came just a few days delayed this month. Now I wait for the next period to come. Hope AF doesn't show up. We ttc during my fertile window, every other day to be sure. Lol.

Still taking my prenatal vitamins - Elevit. I spoke to my doctor if he would be okay prescribing baby aspirin and progesterone just to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Hello! That's inspiring. How'd you get on with the pregnancy? Did you take additional vitamins or took baby aspirin or progesterone? Thanks!

@nplm0109 good luck this month! Keep us posted.
Did your doc agree to prescribe them when you fall pg again? My doc basically said until you've had 3 mc they don't worry about anything.. I'm tempted to go back and ask for the same!

Hi. I had a healthy pregnancy with my now 5yo DD then suffered a MMC last November. Found out that baby had passed at 9 weeks at my 12 week scan and was so worried about miscarrying again but I'm now 12+3 with a healthy baby. I'm so sorry for your loss, I know it can feel so lonely and helpless but I hope my positive story can help you as I know how you feel my lovely. Sending baby dust your way Flowers

@finallyfoundmyself thank you so much, I'm so sorry you went through that and so happy you're pg again! Do you mind me asking if your doc prescribed you anything like progesterone in this current pregnancy?
Thanks again xx

@Maya12345 Hi lovely. No I wasn't prescribed anything as it was a 'first' MC. I found they could be quite dismissive especially as id had a previous healthy pregnancy with my daughter. Apart from the usual prenatals I haven't taken anything different

Thanks, well I guess its good to know you can do it without but not exactly reassuring are they?! Thanks x

He did say he would prescribe it if I wanted to because it's no harm anyway. Maybe I'll take them just to be sure. I'm waiting for my bfp. I had a test yesterday - 7/8dpo maybe - I'm going crazy because it seems that I see a line in it somewhere. 😁
