Pregnant after early miscarriage

Hi guys
I’m just after some reassurance. I lost my last little bean at 6 weeks 1 day, it’s now a few months later - today I’m 5 weeks 3 days and totally freaking out. My boobs are sore the same as last time and this time I’m having a bit of sickness but nothing major I’m worried sick about miscarrying. Any success stories that can help settle my nerves? Xxx thank you Emma

Hiya!

I am so sorry to hear about your loss.

I had an early missed miscarriage at 8 weeks and am now 8+4 with my beautiful rainbow :)

I analysed every tiny thing for the first few weeks and could only start to enjoy my pregnancy when I saw a heartbeat at 8+1 (when I lost my first baby).

From my experience, I would recommend an early scan around the time of the first loss. It really helped me to see this pregnancy as ‘new’ and not a repeat of what had happened before.

As for symptoms....mine come and go. Trust me, I’ve had many sleepless nights, hysterical sobbing, and perhaps even a touch of depression over it. And it was all totally unfounded. And even if it had been the same as before, worrying about it wouldn’t have changed anything!!

Pregnancy after miscarriage is a very frightening place but you are not alone :)

I had a MC in Jan at 6 weeks, and a chemical in April. Am now 5+4 with what will hopefully be our rainbow and first child.

Im over analysing every twinge and ache and check the loo roll and my knickers every time I use the loo (which is lots!)

We are going to pay for a private scan between 7 and 8 weeks to reassure us that everything is okay as I can’t sit and wait until the 12 week scan. I’m hoping that if we see a healthy baby and heartbeat at the scan I’ll settle and begin to enjoy the experience a little more xx

I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks and got pregnant a month later. All fine and he’s 3 now, that wait for the 12 week scan was an anxious one though ❤️❤️

I had a missed miscarriage which we found out at our 12 week scan back in March. I'm now pregnant again with our rainbow, 8+5 weeks. I had an early scan a couple of weeks ago, and so far so good. I'm an absolute nervous wreck though, and overthink and overanalysing absolutely everything. We've booked ourselves in for another early scan next week. I would definitely recommend you doing so too, it's so worth the money just for that little peace of mind.
Best of luck to you Thanks

Hi Hun firstly sorry for your loss but congrats on your new pregnancy!

I had an early loss in April at 6 weeks and conceived 2 weeks later and am now 17 weeks tomorrow with a healthy little jelly bean!!

100% get an earpy private scan if you can afford it, will put your mind at ease whilst waiting for the 12 week scan.

Don't compare this pregnancy to your last, there all different, DONT google if you can stop yourself, try to take each day and enjoy it, don't allow yourself to not get attached because your scared it may happen again it's not fair on you or baby!

Xx

Hello. I had a m.c at 8 weeks and then another at 6 weeks. Both completely broke my heart and as a result my husband and I gave ourselves about 6 months off from trying. we really needed that time because it completely wiped all of my confidence and I was terrified to try again.
well now we are pregnant again and we are 9 wks and 1 day. Iv had two early scans. Because I had to have them in order to make me feel confident.
I'm also having another next Friday and then one more two weeks after that which will be my 12 week scan. The scans really do reassure. The only advice I can give is. Rest as much as you can. go for nice walks with partner and eat when you feel sick. Even though the thought of eating can make you feel even more sick. anything your worried about then speak to doctor or early pregnancy unit at your local hospital xxXxxxxx
