Hi, I’m currently 9+2 weeks pregnant. This is my 3rd time, 1st time I miscarried at 7 weeks with heavy bleeding, 2nd was an ectopic pregnancy! For the last 2 days my pregnancy symptoms have stopped and I really think I’ve missed miscarried! I’m really stressed and feeling horrible right now. I’m 32, been married for 6 years and we really want a baby. My next scan is next month at 13th week.

Hey @Zerin123 - I'm sorry for your previous losses. This must be such a worrying time. Are you able to afford a private scan before your 13th week for peace of mind?

Hey, just wanted to say I had a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks (didn't pass baby until 14 weeks) and my symptoms didn't stop. My belly even kept growing xx

Fingers crossed OP. I m approximately in the same boat, several miscarriages, almost 10 weeks pregnant and terified of a missed miscarriage.

I had no constant symptoms and several scans when I was almost convinced something was going wrong. Symptoms are not an indicator. So try not to get too anxious about that. Hope everything goes well with your scan tomorrow

I had a missed miscarriage then a chemical then my rainbow baba. Second pregnancy had 3 early losses before this one and terrified of another missed miscarriage. I hope you get a scan tomorrow. And all is okay. X

Sometimes symptoms can come and go without anything being wrong. In my healthy pregnancy i think my symptoms faded a bit around that stage and in my missed miscarriage i had strong symptoms right up to 14 weeks, until after my surgery. Good luck

Id echo everyone above. I've had 5 missed miscarriages, 2 'natural' miscarriages and 2 healthy pregnancies and I can definitely say symptoms don't indicate anything. Also, the placenta starts taking over around 10 weeks, you might be a few days further along than you think, and I think some women find their symptoms ease off a bit then.

Good luck OP, pregnancy after loss is very hard xxx
