Please ladies, I need some success stories to get me through today before my scan this evening. I had a MMC a couple of months back and I'm paying for a private scan tonight at 9 weeks.
Please, has anyone had any experience of MMC and then successful pregnancy?
Sorry for your loss in advance. And thank you !!Smile

I am currently 7 weeks pregnant after a MMC last year. Hoping mine will be a success story but taking each day at a time. I have a scan booked in for next Tuesday so I feel your anxiety.

It's really tough going through a MMC but i believe its around 2% of women will go on to have another MMC so the odds are in our favour Smile

Let us know how you get on, keep positive. x

I'm also in your boat but only 5+5 so a long way to go. Have got a reassurance scan booked at 7 weeks and trying not to think past that.

Finding it hard though, the scan seems a long way off and am worrying about every little thing

I had a MMC with my first pregnancy. We found out at the 12 week scan. We now have 2 boys, age 2 and 5. Sorry for your loss and hope the scan goes well

I had a MMC two years ago and then a few months later went on to have a healthy pregnancy, (she’s currently throwing a tantrum because I won’t let her pull the cats tail)!

Not going to lie, I spent the entire pregnancy so scared of a repeat, however my EPAU scanned me every two weeks from 6 weeks pregnancy till 10 weeks then discharged me when I had my 12 weeks scan.
I spent every scan day petrified it would be bad news, some times DP would just sit patiently in the car with me whilst I got the courage to get out of the car I was so frightened.

Good luck, wish you a happy healthy pregnancy xxx

I had a MMC, finding out on the anniversary of my dad’s death. I got pregnant again very soon after and had a scan at about 8 weeks to check everything was ok.

I did have a bleed at 10 weeks which was awful as we thought it had happened again but we went for a scan and everything was fine.

DS is now 5 and is amazing Smile

Good luck with your pregnancy Flowers

I had two MMCs but now 17 weeks into third pregnancy and starting to feel the baby move. The second MMC was so tough, and the first trimester this time, I was convinced there was something wrong with me.

Good luck this evening, fingers crossed for you, and the stats are very good if everything is ok at a 9 week scan!

I had two MMC’s last year but am now almost 36 weeks with a healthy little boy so it can work out in the end Smile. Fingers crossed everything goes well for you tonight.

I had two mmc in a row and am now 26 weeks with the third attempt. Can’t lie, I’m still terrified, but all has looked well so far.

Hope the scan goes well tonight.
