Third pregnancy after two miscarriages - please hold my hand

I've already had one early miscarriage and one after 12 weeks. I'm at 4+4 today and every twinge is making my heart sink. I don't think this pregnancy will work out. I feel bad that DH will have to go through this all again with me - I was very ill last time and he was terrified for me. I wish I could feel optimistic about it.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! I know it's scary but worrying will not affect the outcome, weather good or bad so try to enjoy it as best you can. Obviously up to the 12 week mark is scary, but every week will mean baby is getting stronger.

Good luck OP.

Congrats on your pregnancy!
I am now 26 weeks pregnant with my third pregnancy following two mc's and it was really hard at the beginning and I convinced myself it was all going to go wrong.
I also had bleeding upto 16 weeks which didn't help. But I have finally relaxed and started to enjoy my pregnancy although it did take until after my 20 week scan for me to get to this point and even now I still worry if I have pains or anything.
Basically you will worry and it will be hard to relax but worrying wont make it any better and the stress isn't good for you. Although I know its easier said than done to relax.
I hope all goes well and you can enjoy your pregnancy. But I have really found mumsnetters to be very helpful and supportive even when you just want to moan so make sure you use us all as much as you need to xx

I am 40 + 5 after 4 mc and had the same thoughts up till 30 odd weeks this time DH was very positive during all pregnancies whereas I never thought it would happen.
You just have to stay as positive and relaxed as you can. I learnt that there is nothing you can do to change what the outcome would be just keep your OH close to you and support each other.
Hope all goes well xxxx
