Has anyone had a successful pregnancy after miscarriage. Please give me hope

I’ve just been for my scan and once again second miscarriage at around 10 weeks. What’s wrong with me! I hate my body. Why is it doing this to me? I’ve had a missed miscarriage which I feel is even more cruel as I had no bleeding like last time and my body still feels pregnant. I’m so angry at my body and devastated, I feel like I’m running out of time and now I have to go through all of this again. I have to now have to go home to my 3 year old (who I hoped we would be telling today) and put on a face smile and listen to her say as always normally does mummy when am I going to get a brother or sister like everyone else.

Miscarriage

Pregnancy 1: missed miscarriage at 9 weeks
Pregnancy 2: healthy full term baby
Pregnancy 3: blighted ovum found out at 8 week scan
Now pregnant again and terrified of having another miscarriage. Anyone have a blighted ovum and then went on to have a healthy baby?

I’m having a mare

I’m 38 weeks pregnant today, last night I had heavy bleeding and was told to come into triage, my partner drove me in my car and it broke down about 2 mins into the journey (it’s never had any problems in 2 years), I ended up having to phone an ambulance and we left the car. My mom came to stay with my toddler and she’s just messaged me to say she can’t find the cat anywhere, she’s an indoor cat and has never been outside but my mom has been hanging out washing in the garden bless her and the cat must have slipped out. I know they say it comes in 3s but does it really need to be now 😩 I’m a nervous wreck.

Bleeding at 6wks

I miscarried last year at 9wks and bled heavily, I am now 6wks pregnant again and today bled-mostly filled one pad then stopped. In your experience is this the start of another miscarriage or a good sign that it stopped?

Admitted to hospital

I found out on Saturday that my baby did not have a heart beat, since then the bleeding as been light. I woke up at 2am with severe heavy bleeding and clots coming out of me. I went to A&E as I was fainting and vomiting everytime the blood came out of me.
I have been kept in overnight due to my blood pressure dropping and the amount of blood I have lost.
My question is, is this generally what happens with a miscarriage? We have a tiny family and the thing I wanted more than anything was to give my daughter a sibling but after this experience I really don’t think I can risk going through this again with another pregnancy!

Positive ovulation after miscarriage

I had a miscarriage on the 13th July at around 5 weeks pregnant(my first ever miscarriage) I have a daughter who is 3. I had a negative pregnancy test on the 21st July. Just had a positive ovulation test today and we have been trying but I feel so scared about my body being ready to try again and be pregnant. I desperately want another baby but don't think I'll ever get over this anxious feeling about my body being ready. Anyone been through this and have fallen pregnant so close to a miscarriage? Advice would be greatly appreciated!

Keep trying or leave it

When pregnant with my now 10 month old a friend of mine was pregnant but 3 months behind me . She ended up having a late miscarriage or I’m not sure is it classified as stillborn . She was approx 21 weeks ( anatomy scan ) and had announced it to everyone . We don’t live too close so sympathising was though a brief phone call and messages . Since this she has not connected with me . It’s been over a year . I have messaged her 4-5 times since her miscarriage and I’ve left space between the messages and left them open to reply to or let her know she can take more time . However she either likes the message ( just once ) or reads and ignores it . I sent one last week which was left on read . I just tell her how much I miss her and that she’s always on my mind . I never mention my baby . Do I just leave it at this point . I know it was a difficult time for her and she went ghost for awhile . We had been excited to raise babies close in age . Any advice ? She was a good friend not a best friend but I would see her a few times a year and text often and we were both married which is something not many of my other friends related to .

Early pregnancy anxiety

Hi ladies, I’ve just found out I’m a little over 6 weeks pregnant and I’ve done 2 pregnancy tests and have my first F2F appointment with the midwife next month. But I’m feeling really anxious, I had a missed miscarriage last year and I’m terrified of it happening again, what can I do?

🫣

Can anyone please put my mind at rest? Does anyone see a line?
I’m so anxious due to having a miscarriage in may.

Success stories after multiple d&c’s

Hi! I just got out of surgery after my third d&c and would love to hear from this community if anyone has success stories after multiple miscarriages? Especially with multiple d&c’s.

Me and my husband really want to become a parents, but things have not gone as we hoped so far.. this was my third d&c. The first one was a long time ago, then two back to back this year, one at 9 weeks where I measured to 9 weeks and then another one at 10 weeks, measuring to 6.5 weeks. I’m doing lots of testing now to see if they can find a reason, but in the mean time I would love to hear success stories to get my hope up and to help me cope until I feel better.

Thank you and big hugs to anyone else having a hard time right now ❤️

Clear blue 3+

When did everyone get there 3+, I got 2-3 today and I'm 5+4. I've got a history of miscarriage so was a bit disappointed but trying to not stress myself out. Thanks

Hi everyone!

Me and my partner have suffered a miscarriage on Sunday (I was just shy of 7 1/2 weeks)

Trying again? How long would I have to wait to try again, my logic is to try once I’ve had a period (which I’ve bled as part of the miscarriage so will that class as a cycle?) but my partner wants to jump straight into it!

Support? I feel like everyone disappears when you say you’ve had a miscarriage!

Partner and me arguing? It’s like we have a very short fuse! It’s crazy the amount of arguments we have!

Any advice would be helpful thank you x

Recurrant miscarriage clinic nhs

I have my telephone call with the recurrant miscarriage clinic soon. Has anyone had experience with them and what testing and treatment if any did they offer you? I’m curious to know exactly what what they offer to do. Thanks!

2nd miscarriage

I got told today that I’ve had a missed miscarriage after I had an early reassurance scan on Wednesday where they couldn’t see anything.

I’m obviously really sad and devastated. Yet, with my first miscarriage in March, I was an emotional wreck but today I’ve cried and then I’m not sure if I’m numb or I’m in shock as my brain seems to have gone straight to ‘we need to try again’ mode.

I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve not bled yet so it’s like it’s not real, even though I know it is or what..

I think my fiancé is waiting for me to snap or break but there’s just nothing. It feels so weird.

Has anyone else felt like this?

The aftermath of an early miscarriage

Hi,

There’s no question or purpose to this apart from a rant 🤦🏻‍♀️
So I would of been nearly 11 weeks today but last weekend it was confirmed that I had a sac for a 10 week fetus but it seemed the baby had not got past 6 weeks and was just not there anymore.
I’ve been waiting all week for like some sort of period or big bleed and nothing. I know I’m definitely not pregnant anymore as I just don’t feel pregnant. I have another follow up scan tomorrow so I guess I can get more answers then but I guess it’s called a missed miscarriage? I don’t know but I just want my body to just have the period and move on from all of this instead I feel like I’m just stuck in limbo.
I’ve also been off all week from work and they’ve been really kind and understanding. Apart from my bosses and my friends at work no one else knows. However, there’s a few nosey buggers that keep pestering people I’m close with at work to see why I’m off and it’s honestly pissing me off. Like they’re guessing like I am / was pregnant and asking people if I’ve lost it. These are people I am not close with at work and it feels so fucked up to be gossiping about something like this. I’ve even been told about a comment about me looking ‘fatter’ and that’s why they asked if I was pregnant. I’m possibly back next week and that’s the bit I’m dreading, people getting in my face and making some spectacle out of my baby that didn’t make it.

Pregnancy after loss

I just found out I’m pregnant, I’m around 3 weeks I had a loss at the start of the year when I was 5 weeks and I’m really worried it will happen again. Any advice how to help feel a little bit less worried?

Also I have a 2 year old as well, can someone tell me how hard this is going to be

Miscarriage

I found out today that unfortunately my baby passed away, I’m 9wks 2d.

I spoke to the nurse about my options and I’m between doing the surgery awake or the tablets.

I am absolutely terrified of both options. Please could anyone who has been through either of these options Please share their experiences as I am absolutely terrified as well as heartbroken.

Miscarriage 6

I need to hear that my lo will be ok as an only child because I don’t think this is going to work out for us 😢

2nd trimester miscarriage

14 weeks, 5 days. I had an ultrasound appointment today and they couldn’t find a heartbeat. I was so excited to have another baby with my husband. We had the name picked out and everything. Not sure why I’m posting, I’m just having a really hard time right now.
