3 miscarriage now pregnant again..

[Mrsowen2015]

I just need someone to talk to I’ve tried talking to my partner but he’s useless love him he does try but doesn’t understand as it’s his first child and my second. We’ve been trying since January I had a miscarriage in February then March and April and I’m 4 weeks pregnant again. The lines on my previous pregnancy tests have been rubbish it’s only just there now their quite dark so is that a good sign.. I’m terrified of having a mc my daughter she’s 6 keeps asking am I pregnant or just assuming and telling her teachers I’m pregnant because she wants a brother/sister badly. My boyfriend is 30 and I’m 26 he haven’t got any children and I feel like time is running out. My boobs are unbelievably sore with this pregnancy and a little tired but no much. Does this sound good I don’t want to get my hopes up but at the same time I want reassurance 😒🙄

Sounds like you've experienced chemical pregnancies this year, many swear that baby aspirin can help.
Never tried it myself but have experienced several chemicals and multiple mc's between 8 & 12wk. I took extra zinc in my 1st trimester as I read it can help improve progesterone levels, 27+1wk now.

At your age time is certainly not close to running out. Congrats and good luck.
Only time will tell of this will be a sticky one unfortunately, the waiting game is horrible.

Good luck! Try not to sign watch which is easier said then done. Keep focus on small weekly milestones.

I lost two babies between my first and second son. I lost both babies in week8/9.

For this last pregnancy I was mad with fear at the 8/9 week mark so had an early scan which helped and my midwife agreed to do the booking in appointment at 10 weeks.

I found with all my scans with this last pregnancy the sonographer are quick to tell you there is a heartbeat. They see your notes and losses.

And lastly - you might not feel young but you are - my last arrived at age 41

Congrats on your pregnancy! These symptoms all sound promising.

I had 2 miscarriages last year (I’m 33 and have no children) and am now 19 weeks which is the furthest I’ve got.

If I had once piece of advice to give to any woman who has had miscarriages is to take low dose aspirin (150mg daily). You can buy it over the counter and I take it with my dinner as it’s most effective to take in the evening.

I’ve taken it from ovulation and it’s recommended to take it until 36 weeks. I wasn’t prescribed it but did my own research, and midwives and consultants have said I did the right thing as I have told them now.

The aspirin just thins the blood slightly to ensure oxygen and nutrients get to the baby. I’ll never know for sure but for me it seems to be working a treat.

As long as you’ve never had a stomach ulcer and aren’t allergic, it’s totally fine to take low dose aspirin right through pregnancy and there are no risks.

Hope this helps and you get your 🌈 xx

@Mrsowen2015 sorry to hear about your losses! I was also in the exact same situation, suffered 3 losses all before 7 weeks. Im now pregnant again and before this pregnancy I decided to try taking 150g aspirin from ovulation , my midwife and doctor gave me the ok to try this. From the get go this pregnancy has been different, i got my BFP early at 9dpo and I continued taking tests until I was 17dpo. Same as you, they were all really dark and progressed really well. Whereas before I've always had really faint positives. I'm now almost 17 weeks pregnant and hopefully find out the sex on Saturday ☺️. I've already had 4 scans in total because I was so paranoid 😂. Really hope it all goes well for you. As you have had 3 losses you should be able to self refer yourself for an early scan at the EPU, that's what I did and I had my first scan at 6+4. Xx

Hi all just an update I'm now 8 weeks pregnant which is a massive relief I've had two scans and baby is doing well. So hopefully everything will continue to be ok. Thank you all your comments and support xx

@Mrsowen2015 hi congratulations, can I ask did you take aspirin in the end?

Hi yes I did I took 150mg for a few weeks I don't take it now though x
