After two mc in a row...

[PossumPoo]

I cant get excited about this pregnancy. I have my 12 week scan tomorrow and l am expecting bad news. Although l had a scan at 8 weeks and everything was fine (3 days behind my dates though).

My first pregnancy resulting in DD was so easy, l hadn't had a miscarriage so was oblivious, no ms, just an all round happy experience.

And now l am pregnant with dc2 l feel bloody miserable knowing things can go wrong and do. I really don't want to be like this for the next 6 months, how can l snap out of it??

Thanks Tori. I had a hb with mc#2 and still lost the baby at 8+6 and then you read of others losing at 13+.

I think i am trying to protect myself (as much as you can) because after seeing the hb before l thought everything would be ok.

Hopefully tomorrow will be good news and l will get excited as l should be.

I can't remember the exact stats, but if everything is fine by 10 weeks, you are normally pretty safe. (Something like 98% of pregnancies are fine?)

I had multiple miscarriages and early pregnancy was a total nightmare. I found statistics very reassuring ans was definitely able to relax after 12 weeks.

Good luck with it all.

Had scan this morning and l am back to my original dates which l am pleased with.

Still feel slightly anxious but very glad it wasn't the bad news l was expecting
