3 scans and still worried about miscarriage

[Suzkeybell]

I have already had 3 scans one at 4-5 weeks, one at 6+1 wks and one at 8 wks, every seemed fine then but i am still worried about miscarriage, how will i get over this anxiety

It gets a bit easier once you can feel them moving but I am afraid I am still anxious at 25 weeks. Watching with interest to see if anyone has some tips!

I think it's fairly natural to be anxious throughout the pregnancy, I certainly was! It just depends on the level of anxiety you are feeling. If it is getting too much have a chat with your midwife. As pp says, it lessens slightly when you feel the baby moving.

Did you see a heartbeat and everything measuring correctly at your scans?? If so the likelihood is you will be fine. I had an early scan yesterday after a previous miscarriage and everything was perfect, the fertility specialist told me that your chances if miscarriage go down dramatically after you have seen this, under 5%. Therefore you have a 95% of everything being ok. That's far more likely!

I'm still abit worried but I think that's natures way of preparing you for being a mum. Once they arrive you will probably constantly be worried about something! :)

Yep you have a 95%+ chance of it all being OK! :)

But the anxiety never goes - I'm 29 weeks and worried now about something else (also rare, like 2% of women).
If you find it excessive and it's getting you down, you can ask your MW for counselling.
