12 week scan after 3 miscarriages

[LuckyLou59]

Hi all. I have my 12 week scan on Monday. I'm absolutely cacking myself. I had a scan at 9+3 because of bleeding however I've had 3 miscarriages and one was at 10 weeks, so not feeling reassured due to early scan. I'm only 27 and miscarriages were unexplained. I don't smoke, healthy BMI, exercise 4x a week, yet pregnancy has always been difficult. Has anyone experienced anything like this before and come out okay on the other side? I've had awful sickness which disappeared yesterday (never had this in my previous pregnancies) but it disappeared overnight. It sounds silly but this sickness was like my security blanket. I revelled in it! I want to enjoy this pregnancy but can't seem to be able to calm down and let things just be. Help. Anxious, scared mess...

My daughter is now 20 weeks and has had lots of bleeding and cramps so we've been on tenterhooks for the last four months.

Wishing you the best for Monday

Thank you @follybodger - best of luck to you and your family also

Yes. Three miscarriages, all around the 9/10 week mark. Fourth time worked and she's now asleep upstairs, 5 years old. No interventions - it just worked out that time.

Good luck.

I also had 3 miscarriages before having my daughter and I'm 22. I remember being so on edge for most of my pregnancy because I was waiting for something bad to happen. My daughter is now 4 and a half months and thriving😁 I'm sure everything will be fine for you too! Congratulations!😊💕💙

Thanks everyone. All of my symptoms seem to have disappeared overnight. Not sure if this is just a normal 12 week thing or if I am right to be panicking. Miscarriage does funny things to you

I had 4 miscarriages before finally getting our little girl and now I'm 23 weeks pregnant again. The only thing different in both pregnancies is I was prescribed progesterone pessaries for the first 12 weeks. I know that scan anxiety so well but hopefully everything will be ok for you. Good luck.

Hoping all goes well OP. Have you had any tests for recurrent miscarriage? Coventry is the best clinic in the world and they take NHS referrals from all over the country. I’m currently 31 weeks following their protocol after 5 miscarriages. Good luck

Symptoms do ease off around that point. I can't exactly remember when but it was before my 12 week scan because I was getting even more worried than my usual level of worry. Hope all goes well for you at the scan xx
