i had m/c 2nd april and am now 51/2 weeks preg i keep feeling like im goin to come on that low stomach burn im soo paranoid its driving me to distraction!! ii occoasionly get sharp pains too. im feeling quite sick , emotional and mood swings which i didnt have before so hoping that a good sign? am i alone feelin like this when falling pregnant after m/c??? ive not even been to docs yet im not goin till after 8 weeks which is when i lost baby last time....

thanksxx

lost my baby at 13 weeks in june and am now pregnant again- bout 8 weeks. I literally check myself everytime I go to the loo, every twinge is agony. Have had a scan but until I get past the point i go to last time, won't be able to relax. you are not alone.xxx

you won't relax until baby is here. I am now almost 33 weeks and still expecting to see blood at every toilet visit!

However, the fact that I am this far along means it can work out even after the loss of a baby - best of luck to you

I also experienced a miscarriage earlier this year and was devastated. I was only 4/5 wk when it happened and didnt have much bleeding, but I knew it wasnt to be, even before the scan confirmed. I have recently found out Im pregnant again and feel like I am driving myself to it happening again! Im obsessed with going to the toilet to make sure Im ok and these low lying period type pains that Iv been told are normal in early pregnancy are making it worse! I already have a 3 year old and that pregnancy went great. Just feel obsessed with miscarriage now though. Waiting to hear from midwife for book in, so will discuss matter with her.

thats a good sighn just make sure your fee;ling
confident that everythings alright! take prenatal vitamins

absolutely youre not alone! Im still terrified. I had the same feelings as you really period like feelings and they always worried me. It didnt help that i had some small brown spotting and then some fresh red bleeding, which is exactly what happened when i had my miscarriage, and i didnt get to have my scan for ages. when i saw the baby was alright i was so relieved. Didnt help me at all though im still freaking out, i got to 12 wks on wednesday an i still couldnt celebrate, as my dating scan wont be for another 2 weeks. Ive been getting sharp stabbing pains all up my stomach and now nausea and all is like wearing off its making me convinced something is happening.

I think once youve had a m/c you cant get rid of that fear at all, you never consider it before it happens to you. I was worried last time i was pregnant as my mother and grandmothers on both sides had had m/c so i knew i was going to have one. I hope the one i had is only one i will have. On plus side my mum has 4 kids, my nans had 5 and 8!

hi, i am 4 1/2 weeks pregnant after miscarrying in may and the low stomach ache your on about im getting too though i have spoken to many people and they say this early on it will be our ligaments stretching preparing for the pregnancy, i dont have my scan for another 12 days and its driving me round the twist, i am analising every little twinge down there its not right!!
keep me posted with your symptoms and how you get on with your pregnancy huni

lots of sticky baby dust xxxxx

I know exactly how you are feeling, I had 2 m/c's and am currently 11 weeks again, the last two months have ben hell, so much anxiety and worry and time goes so slowly. The emotional mood swings may mean the hormones are better this time and i have had sharp pains which I think are growing pains. I managed to get an early scan after some spotting at 6 weeks which was normal which put my mind at rest a little and have just had my booking scan which agai was normal but am still scared to tell some people yet. i dont think Ill beleive it till im in labour!! Please stay strong and the time will pass and you will get there. I found feeling sick reassuring but wished it to go its so funny now its easling I want it back again I can twin!! lol.
Take care hun we are all here for you, rach xxxx

I know how you're feeling. I'm 18 weeks after m/c at 12 weeks last October and I'm still terrified of things going wrong

I went to docs as soon as I found out and I also contacted my EPU who agreed to scan me at 7 weeks, 9 weeks, 12 weeks and every 4 weeks thereafter if necessary - they have been fantastic and I would recommend you use resources such as these if you can - they've offered me a lot of reassurance.

Take care of yourself and that little one

i'm about 7 weeks pg after a m/c last nov (at 10 weeks). I'm sometimes finding it really hard to be positive, i keep thinking that it'll end same as last time. But really if you think about it, having a m/c doesn't mean that we'll have another. Our chances of these pregnancies continuing are a lot higher than them not so hon, i know it's hard but we have to keep positive and what will be will be, we can look after ourselves but if things aren't meant to be then, well we are strong and we'll cope. Anyway, there's no reason why these pregancies shouldn't be successful. I'm also having all the symptoms you're having plus mega sore boobs and bloody knackered!

Take care hon, maybe we can support eachother through this hard time x x x
