I had a miscarriage at the weekend, this is my second since Feb, we are obviously devestated after losing our son last Sep. The miscarriages are causing us a great deal of concern, not only due to the fact that we have lost our babies but the fact that both happened exactly when the second period would have been due. We are thinking very carefully about trying again because we can't go on like this. Has anyone out there experienced this kind of problem? I carried my son full term without much problem until the end, and we just don't understand why we are losing our babies in the second month.

Hi. I conceived my eldest DS straight after a mc. My other DS was conceived about two months after a mc - the only two times I have stayed pregnant.I have had 4 mcs and when seeing a consultant about it he said that the left over preganancy hormones (after the mcs) had probably helped me stay pregnant. So hope it works for you too. Having read the thread though I think you should get to the drs staight away. I had low dose aspirin the second time as was seeing the consultant by then and he thought it would help. Really really hope things go well for you.

Lewei - hope all goes well for you this time. I delivered the baby for a friend who had had 4 miscarriaged and had fallen pregnant unexpectedly before having more investigations done. She sailed through her pregnancy. Find out about the low dose aspirin soon.

lovely news lewei.

I became pregnant three months after my m/c and d&c, and had a totally problem-free pregnancy.

So hope things go well for you.

Oh, I'm so pleased! Well done you.

My ds was conceived (though for the life of me I can't remember how/when) a month after I miscarried. It is and will be scary and you won't believe it until you hold that bundle in your arms, but we'll all be rooting for you every step of the way. Good luck

great news LEWEI, best of luck, I'm sure everything will be ok thius time!!!

LEWEI · 02/07/2003 11:08

I am feeling very happy and positive, i am taking low dose aspirin, so fingers crossed that this helps. We will be on holiday when the second cycle is due so we will be relaxing. We haven't told any family or friends ( apart from all on mumsnet of course) we wat to see if we make it to twelve weeks this time, plus we can;t be bothered with all the "i told you so's " if anything does go wrong, but i feel very nauseous and rather busty and i don't mind one little bit.

That is such happy news, very pleased for you and fingers crossed x E

Anyone who says "I told you so" to someone in your position deserves a big smack, Lewei. And I never normally advocate violence on Mumsnet. Hope the low-dose does the trick and that you have a relaxing holiday!

Brookstone · 02/07/2003 14:41

many many congratulations to you and your dp, lewei. fantastic news! i'm thrilled for you and keeping everything crossed for you. take your aspirin and hopefully you'll sail through this pg. keep us all posted on how you're doing. LOL

Brookstone · 02/07/2003 14:50

lewei, i've just realised that myself and quakers posted messages to you saying that we were thinking of you on friday, 13th june!!!!
spooky- the day you conceived!
i reckon that's a good omen!!

quackers · 02/07/2003 14:56

Yes and I also said 'you sound a lot brighter'!!! Now we know why
How are you lewei?

LEWEI · 02/07/2003 17:43

I am doing just fine, a few niggly pains today, but i am putting them down to trapped wind after eating half a jar of pickled onions!!!!!! Dp says that i am acting the same a i did in my first pregnancy, according to him i am being very moody. Personally i wish he would stop asking me if i am ok, if i move he asks if i have a pain, if i go to the loo he asks if i am bleeding. I know he is only showing his love and concern but he is driving me NUTS!!!!!!!!!! I would have something to complain about if he didn't care at all, wouldn't i? Thanks to you both Brookstone and Quackers i am sure your positive thoughts helped along with a couple of bottles of wine I will keep you all posted.
