I miscarried in February of this year. I got pregnant again in May and am now 31 weeks along :) the beginning of the pregnancy was extremely nerve wracking, but the longer it goes on the more confident I feel. Just try to remember that most miscarriages are flukes, and it’s not uncommon to carry a baby to term after a miscarriage. Good luck to you!
Getting pregnant again after a loss adds an extra layer of terror onto a thing which is already fraught with so much anxiety because you *know* what the worst outcome feels like. Carrying a baby is tough enough without all the baggage of a previous loss hanging over you. You wonder how you’ll get through it and nine months can seem to stretch in front of you like an eternity. Personally I didn’t even dare buy a single baby item till after our 20 week scan because I didn’t want to “tempt fate” (which meant we had a mad rush to buy everything in the final weeks!) Why do you think your body is not strong enough? Do you have a medical condition that might affect your ability to carry to term? If not, the miscarriage most likely had nothing to do with you - it’s just one of those unfortunate things. Instead of focusing on things out of your control, maybe you need to look at how you can build your mental and emotional resilience for the journey ahead?

I am going strong at 23 weeks after miscarrying 3 months prior to this pregnancy! Try to push the worry away and enjoy the pregnancy as much as you can! You got this !
I had a miscarriage on Mother’s Day 2024 and I’m now 22 weeks pregnant. No tips really I’m almost 6 months along and still nervous every single day. It helps once you can start feeling the baby move. I try and stay positive and remind myself I am pregnant today and that’s enough at the moment 💕
No tips as I am still TTC after my miscarriage, but wanted to say congratulations! Wishing you a healthy pregnancy
