I had a MMC in July, my third pregnancy. I have 2 children so my other two pregnancies were clearly fine! I am now pregnant again, just, and would love to hear some positive stories on being successfully pregnant after MMC. I'm know that until the 12 week scan I won't properly relax but happy endings would definitely help me stay more positive!

Thank you lovely ladies in advance for taking the time to nurse my fragile pregnant brain!

i have a 5yo son, and i'm 32 weeks pg after 2 miscarriages.
One of them was a regular MC earlyish on, but the next was detected at a 9w scan, after having seen a strong and healthy heartbeat at 8weeks. I then had to wait a week till I could have a D&C - on 23rd Dec... Ugh.

Anyway, this pg has gone "fine", even though I had spotting until 13 weeks. I also got a high risk of Downs at 18 weeks.
I therefore didnt relax much until about 19 or 20 weeks till we;d had the anomoly scan, but time has flown by since then.

It's really hard, but you will relax soon. Lots of love x

I had 4 MC then a live birth at 30 weeks - nothing wrong what so ever and perfectly healthy 11 month (9 month corrected) sleeping (at the mo) in his cot Grin IT CAN happen!
Big hugs!

I had DS1, DS2, mc (8 weeks), mmc (9 weeks) and now 21 weeks pregnant with DS3. Fingers crossed for you!

Thank you all. I know my chances aren't overly worse this time round, was just such a shock having a mmc last time, especially after a heartbeat at 8. I wish I could fast forward to 12 weeks . . . might have a private at 10wks (that's when I discovered mmc last time) but even that seems ages away!

Good luck to you all for the rest of your pregnancies!
