Pregnant again after MC

Hey everyone! im pregnant for the 3rd time and have lost the first 2 before 12 weeks, i have noticed in some of the threads others in the same boat and all the worries we all have. I am to scared to let myself even get a little excited untill after the 12 week scan.
Anyone else feeling a bit nervous?

Thanks for that no but i will ask my mid wife next time i see her

Congratulation and wishing you a happy, healthy 9 months Stella125

Hi stella125,

I am in the same situation as you. It kind of sucks because I remember how excited I was the first time. It was so surreal and I was just so so happy. This time I am freaking out and finding it hard to believe that I am even pregnant (5 BFP's later). I am finding it hard to get excited because I am so worried all the time. Takes the magic of the moment away a little eh....

But third time lucky for us both. We will be fine!!!!! Congratulations by the way

Hi All,
I have a very similar story had 2 x MC's and am now 7w2d pregnant and have been walking on egg shells and anxious for what seems like an eternity but has only been 3 short weeks.
I found regular blood tests help put my mind at ease and also talking on the various forums to hear what others were going through helped.
We had our first scan today, we are having early pregnancy monitoring done through fertility associates, and it was such a reassurance to see the heart fluttering away and to see we were growing right on track to what we expected.
I too am still weary and do not want to get too excited because the heartbreak was tough - although like your redtulip I am way more positive and feel much better about this time.
We have our first OB appt next week and because of our history will have at least 2 more scans before our 12weeks which again puts my mind at ease.
Good luck ladies and fingers crossed we all have great pregnancies this time around, I am sure we will

redtulip the 2ww is nothing compared to the wait to get to the magical 12 week mark... which by the way I have officially reached today!! So excited Congratulations to you btw

I had early bloods to monitor my hcg levels (at my request from GP) then had a scan at 7w3d and another at 10w1d. Got to see my baby again yesterday at OB and have my NT scan tomorrow.

The first thing I said at my scans was "is it alive?". I think the radiographer thought it was a bit odd but I explained my situation (mmc and pmp) and she understood.

For all you ladies out there that have lost a precious wee bub.. stay positive. It will happen

Hi everyone.

I am now 10 weeks 2 days pregnant. We lost our last baby at 11 weeks preg in March this year. IT was a strange and nasty mc- I hadnt had any early bloods or scans so didnt know anything was wrong til I started bleeding. I heamoraaged badly, and after 5 hrs of terrible bleeding in ED, I was scanned and baby still had a heart beat but was measuring only 6 weeks, so hadnt developed properly. I spent 3 nights in hospital, had blood transfusions and an iron infusion. For 3 weeks I was too sick to look after my kids without help, and it took almost 2 months until I was completely better and back to work as normal.
I am terrifed of a repeat of all of that. So far this time I have had serial hcg's which have been fine, and scans at 5 weeks 6 days, and 8 weeks 4 days which have been perfect too,....but as I get closer and closer to the 11 week mark Im getting more anxious. I dont feel as tired these last few days either which is freaking me out a bit, and my symptoms subsided in the week before my mc.

Hello all, just an update :) everything seems to be going well and i cant wait to meet bubs! i hope everyone else who has been thru the same thing is doing well! xoxo

Love so many positive stories in here!! I have lost two little angels between 6 & 7 weeks, and are currently TTC again - I am in the TWW at the moment, but my chart is really weird so not sure this is the month! Really hope its 3rd time luck for us to

I'm trying for my 3rd time lucky baby too! Lets all make some lovely success stories eh?
