RISK OF MISCARRIAGE ?! Help!

[Rach1802]

Hi ladies

I’m 4.5 weeks pregnant with my third child. I’ve been out shopping with my youngest in his pushchair . I don’t drive so I’m used to walking everywhere, long distance too. I’ve been pushing loads of heavy shopping back (which was on the handles of the pushchair) and I am in agony. I needed to get home so I had to carry on. My back is in bits and it was hot!

I’ve got back and I’m exhausted. What are the chances of miscarriage from straining too much? I’m so worried! Feel more worried with this pregnancy than my others and I’m not even 6 weeks yet!!! :(

I think you're letting your anxiety get the better of you. Go home and have a rest (if you can) and try not to fret too much. Big hugs.

I think the risk is low. At 4.5 weeks the baby is super small - as in, poppyseed small.

You need to relax. If you often have these feelings contact your GP asap
