Anxious with new pregnancy after having a bad miscarriage experience

[Masemellowmum]

Hi everyone, I'm 5 weeks 3 days pregnant super early I know but back in April I had found out that I was having a missed miscarriage (caulated dates I should had been 11 weeks but when they did the scan only showed me at 5 weeks 5days), it then lead onto having a miscarriage in June and thats when the problems really started I had to have a emergency D&C to save my life it was terrifying. It then took 9 almost 10 weeks for my body to heal but also had mental health problems at the same time (still struggling sometimes I am definitely better than I was). I am now pregnant again as I said at the beginning and I'm so anxious of having another missed miscarriage, there is no way of knowing until you have a scan I still felt pregnant the line on my tests were getting darker nothing had changed until the scan showed other wise, that would have been my 3rd miscarriage experience I had 2 before I had my first child (the pregnancy was totally fine with my first child no complications and they are thriving and doing perfect 6 years on).

Sorry for the rambling, does anyone have any advice on how to deal with the anxiety and worry of both the things thank you and sorry if in wrong category please tell me if it is

Sorry to hear of your experience. I suggest just take it a day at a time, each day without bleed is a success.
also try to schedule a scan every 2 weeks for assurance that baby is still there and growing well.
stay positive and think positive i wish you the best of luck 💐

Thank u so much me and my husband are planning on having our first scan at 8 weeks and another at 10 and depending on when I get the hospital first scan may end up booking an extra if needed, we're taking each day as it comes I have tried not testing as often and not think to much about the anxiety its just so hard 😅 thank u again for ur kind words 😊

Sorry to hear what you went through. I don’t think the worrying stops tbh. I had a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks with twins 7 years ago. I then had my daughter who’s just turned 6. Now I’m. 9 weeks pregnant. I had a scan at 6 weeks and I had one yesterday. The worrying has returned a day later 🤦‍♀️ it’s hard isn’t it. Wish I could offer some valuable advice but I can’t lol.

Honestly I dont think it ever will either, sorry to hear about ur previous pregnancy its hard to feel ok even with having a successful pregnancy afterwards. I hope having regular scans it might put my mind at ease at least a little but wont know for sure. Just talking to others and knowing I'm not going through this toughness alone is also a great help I unfortunately dont have anyone in my circle that know what I'm going through mentally physically and emotionally so thank u for comment
