Bleeding at 8w 5d following miscarriage 4 months ago at 7 wks :(

[Daisy80]

Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone has been through anything similar and looking for hope. I have a lovely healthy 2yr old DS, but recently miscarried a second pregnancy. Now in 3rd pregnancy and was feeling so happy about it but been spotting for a week, had a scan at 8 weeks and heartbeat detected but small for dates. Last night and today bleeding has got much heavier and red also have period like pains. I have another scan booked for tomorrow just feeling so anxious about having another mc and feeling so sad Wondered if others had similar experiences and what outcomes they had? I had a very normal pregnancy first time with no bleeding.

Hello Daisy,

I have no experience with miscarriage but just wanted to say how sorry I am your going through this.

I hope you get some answers from your scan tomorrow.

Hi Daisy, I really hope all is well for you tomorrow,
I had similar a few years ago, I had 2 normal pregnancies with no bleeding, then had a third a few years later which ended in a very traumatic mc, pregnant again a year later and had another mc, I was devastated and thought that all my chances had gone, when I found myself pregnant again I couldn't hold any hope that I would carry it successfully, she stuck!! I am now pregnant with DC4 and 18 + 5 and feeling movement so I'm beginning to relax a little, but I don't think the fear will truly go away for me.
I really wish you have a good outcome and hopefully my experience can give others hope that subsequent pregnancies can be successful.
Good luck x

Thanks so much for your support and thanks for sharing your positive story Mexicantortilla, I do wish you the best of luck for the rest of your pregnancy. Unfortunately it was bad news for me today . It does make me feel better to know that others have been through similar and have ended with positive outcomes in the end. X
