2 misscarriages and now pregnant again... Scared!

[Andifyoudontfirstsucceed]

I am 5 weeks tomorrow and today have done nothing but worry about this pregnancy. I am having cramps... Which I had both last pregnancies and have read are normal. I am also feeling very 'hungover' (without the fun times before). Any positive stories out there to calm me?? Xx

Sorry that you've suffered through 2 MCs life can be a bugger sometimes..

I've not experienced MCs, but have had suffered a neonatal loss. My only advice would be to take one day at a time & keep a positive attitude.. Negative thoughts won't change the outcome, but of course you're likely to be more guarded than you were previously.
You will have your happy ending - I hope that you get it in 35weeks time!!
Best of luck xx

Hi I have also suffered 2 miscarriages one in November, and one in February and iv just found out Im pregnant again without even having a period since last mc. Iv worked out the I should be around 5/6weeks but unsure as mc can mess with your body. Anyway I saw ur post and thought I know how ur feeling, I'm actually too scared to even tell the doctor but I keep telling myself to be positive and this is my chance now. It would be great to stay in touch through our pregnancies we should be due around the same time x

Hi,

I too suffered 2 miscarriages and found out I was pregnant again in November. Cue constant knicker checking and obsessive googling for every twinge. I'm happy to say I'm now 28 weeks pregnant with everything on track and looking good.

I still have wobbly moments when I think something could still go wrong but now I have a very big bump and can feel baby moving I'm a lot more reassured.

Don't give up and good luck x

Hi, I've also had two miscarriages (mmc's) and am pregnant for a third time - now at 19 weeks. I had cramps in the first few weeks which i now put down to muscles stretching and suchlike, and the general feeling of being under the weather/hungover all the time, but not much else in the way of symptoms. It's hard not to worry like mad with a new pregnancy but another thread on here somewhere uses the mantra 'today I am pregnant' which I found to be a calming way of thinking about it and getting used to the idea. All the best xx

Hey.
Wobbling is quite natural!

Look on here for the thread with Posifrickentivity in the title. its for people PG after MC and it's fantastic.

I had two miscarriages last year (feb and June) both early on. I then found out I was pregnant again in July and have a three week old feeding on me now. I already had a DD and was worried I wouldn't be able to have anymore but all turned out well! Good luck to you, it's more common than people think.

Aw hon it's so scary and such an awful thing to go through.
I had two miscarriages in 2011 and was terrified I wouldn't be able to have kids.

I fell pregnant again in December 2011 and had a completely textbook pregnancy and a perfect little girl who is now 2.5. We then had our little surprise 8 weeks ago, another beautiful, healthy little girl, with no issues.
Really hope everything works out for you.

Thank you for all the positive replies... Trying to stay positive about it... See next week as the milestone as it always went wrong in week 6. This one feels different though... Definitely feeling queezzy in the mornings!

Have a doc appointment on Friday... Suppose just to tell someone!

The posifrickintivity thread - we're all lovely and we'll hold your hand through it all. It's totally understandable to worry, to feel positive one moment and dreadful the next... we get it, especially the anxiety around the milestones.
