just wondered if there was any of you out there who are 9-10 weeks and scared i had a misscariage last year at 6.5 weeks iam trying not to stress myself out but its hard.
ive got my 1st midwife appointment on the 14th july it seems like ages away by then i will be about 11-12 weeks when am i likely to get my 1st scan ? carnt wait just want to know that everything is ok ?

hi your message seems so familiar i bhad a misscarriage in march this year at 9 weeks unfortunately at my dating scan the baby didnt have a heartbeat i am now 10 weeks pregnant and i had my scan when i was 8 weeks all was fine i have another on monday just to make sure, people keep telling me to relax and not to stress its hard cos you still worry about everything, so my advice relax hopefully all will be ok.
take care .

I know exactly how you feel. I too am 10 weeks (11 weeks tommorow) pregnant. I had two miscarriages since december and so can certainly relate to the fear.

I still flinch everytime i get cramping or feel something remotely similar to before or least bit odd, fully expecting it to turn out the same as the last two times.

However, i had my first appt. last week and got to hear the heartbeat, followed by a scan this has set my mind at ease somewhat. I think it is only natural because you fear the worst and know what that feels like.

From other posts on here it seems as though that checking the tissue every time you go to bathroom doesnt go away.

Try to enjoy and just remember that there is really nothing you can do, nature has a mind of its own. Just stay positive and hope for best.

Take Care

Well, am 8/9 weeks and really worried all the time!

Have had some very light spotting yesterday, spoke to the midwife (not seen one yet) and she said all was ok as i didn't have any pain.

Got 'booking-in' appointment next Tuesday (10th July) so guess scan will be maybe 2 weeks after that - if all goes well until then.

Really scary time isn ...

I'm 10 weeks and 1 day and am also scared of miscarriage. This is my first pregnancy after over 2 years of trying! I have had light bleeding/spotting on and off since 8 weeks and 3 days and have been told to take it easy. It's perfectly normal to be worried at this stage and even more so for you poor ladies who have suffered previous miscarriages. Just take things easy, get plenty of rest, eat healthily and keep your fluid intake up and i'm sure we will all have big smiles on our faces in 6-7 months time!!!!
take care and congratulations!

I'm 9 weeks pregnant and equally scared. I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks a few months ago and am constantly paranoid. I've got my first midwife appointment on the 17th which is too far away! I want a scan to show that everything's ok before I tell people the good news.

I had a miscarriage last year and am now 20 weeks pregnant. i had some bleeding this time round and panicked but scan showed baby was fine. Its common to bleed in early pregnancy I am a nurse in an early pregnancy unit so stressed everyday at work. i am sure you will be okay but seek advice if bleeding becomes heavy or you get pain.Need to hang in there until your first scan although its still hard to relax if you have had a miscarriage. Bleeding can be caused by the baby imbedding in uterus, can also bleed around time of period or have cervical erosion. All completeley harmless. Good luck.
