Pregnancy after 2 miscarriages

[KEW1606]

Hello. Wonder if there are any other MNers that have experienced pregnancy after losses? I am currently 8 weeks pregnant and finding it really difficult to balance being excited with being petrified it’s going to happen again. Just looking to chat with others really ❤️ I’ve had 2 losses in the last 8 months. thanks

My first two pregnancies ended in miscarriage. I got pregnant for the third time within two months, and had a normal, successful pregnancy.

Once I saw the heartbeat, I was fine and didn't worry at all.

How are you feeling?

Hi @KEW1606 i had 2 miscarriages last year and I’m currently 26weeks in this pregnancy.
I had bleeding with both miscarriages, nothing this time. Stay positive, I had an early scan at 8weeks and hearing the heartbeat was so special. I cried happy tears! Good luck and hope all works out for you x

I'm another one who was 3rd time lucky, though she has just become a teenager! Super normal to feel very anxious but hopefully you will feel much better soon as you get further on. Best of luck x

Hi @KEW1606

im 11 weeks after a MMC at 8 and a bit weeks last year. Definitely struggling a lot with anxiety but trying to take it one day at a time and ensuring I’m kind to myself especially on the down days ❤️❤️

@TheShellBeach congratulations to you, that’s lovely to hear. Some days I feel bad, others I feel fine. Catch 22 of feeling good but worrying all the same! Both my losses were MMC so each time my symptoms feel calmer it sets me off!

@CMG92and @gingerbubs thank you, good luck to you too!

@30somethingttc and @Hopingrae thanks for the recommendation, I will join! Hope you are doing ok
