Pregnant after missed miscarriage
Show your support
I just carried on as though nothing had changed, just prioritised exercise and eating healthy. I was constantly over thinking and obsessing with signs/symptoms at first, then it was actually my partner that stopped me one day and said if it happens again it happens again and there’s physically nothing we can do to stop it, but constant worrying and obsessing is worse for my health and stress. He was right, so I just got on with things as though I wasn’t pregnant and the weeks passed quickly and we booked a private scan at 7 weeks for reassurance 😊 I’m now 18 weeks with a healthy baby girl and had no issue so far 🤞🏼 just take each day as it comes and try not to stress, is all I can say 🙏🏽
If it is available in your area you can find a pregnancy clinic that might be able to get you in earlier to help ease your mind! Good luck momma
I personally had private scans. Just filling in the gaps between NHS appointments. Until i could feel baby kick. I couldnt shake the worry at all really. Good luck xx
Thank you all! My doctors appointment was moved up to next week and she’s letting me do hcg blood work Friday and Monday. I took a Premom pregnancy test too and the line is still super dark. It might be over the top but I’m so scared of another loss. I have an almost 5 year old from a previous relationship so the miscarriage last year really through me off. Feeling better with the line still being really dark though!
Congratulations! Don’t think you can fully shake the worry but I found it comforting to read other people’s success stories on Reddit and statistically two miscarriages in a row is pretty rare (they say around 1%). Don’t read too much into the symptoms but rather try to focus more on the feeling of gratitude that you were successful in getting pregnant again. Best of luck!
