Scared of another loss

I know someone that never had any symptoms with their pregnancy. You might be the same. If you are really worried it might be worth speaking to a health care professional or mental health support worker

Me! I have no symptoms. 6 weeks today

Me too! Just found out I’m 3 weeks 3 days and absolutely terrified of it happening again😢 I don’t know how to shake this anxiety x

Hey, you’re one day ahead of me. Different issue but also had loss in the past and have really struggled. I got myself a paint by numbers and when my anxiety gets high I take myself away to do that for an hour or so to focus on something and I’ve found it’s really helped me 🙂 sending you all the love in the world.

I was really worried after a loss so I kept booking at home hcg blood tests and seeing the numbers multiply eventually put my mind to ease x

@Indre I might do this! I have a scan on Thursday but the build up to it is so scary!

With my little girl I was so sick but nothing with my miscarriage and nothing so far with this one. I’m just really worried 😔

That's why I liked those tests so much. Had to wait about a week for it to come, then a week for results and I used to to it maybe up to 10 weeks or so. I found that gave me a nice time frame for waiting rather than waiting for a scan which was always a longer wait (they said I can only do scans every 3 weeks, if I remember correctly)

I’m the same I’m almost 4 weeks and I’ve had two back to back miscarriages I know some people can have no symptoms and some people have loads. I’m worried aswell but we gotta try stay positive

@Indre are you having three weekly scans on the nhs? Mine on Thursday is to check it’s progressing as my last scan was 5 weeks and they could only see a yolk sac. I think that’s normal at that gestation though

it’s not easy after MC but try to stay strong and positive 🙏 @Charlee how did you find out this early? Did you take the 6 day early test? I had a MC earlier this year and I’m starting to feel similar symptoms again (nausea, indigestion, out of breath…etc) and freaking out a little. Period is due in 5 days and I bought the 6 day early test but was thinking of taking it in 2 days just in case 🫣

@Lulwa I took a cheap test and there was a faint line. Then I took a clear blue and It said pregnant 1-2! Xx

If you had experienced MC before you can request a reassurance scan at 6 weeks with the early pregnancy unit. That’s what they told me when I had mine so maybe check?

@Lulwa as I’m only 3 weeks do you think I should wait?

@Charlee congratulations! 😊

No, everything private. Nhs is for 12 and 20 week scans but not much else

@Charlee I would! It might stress you out more if you can’t see anything xx

I've also had 2 losses, all three of my pregnancies have been so different so I don't think there is any true way of knowing for sure. Just finding things to pass the time helps ❤️

I'm currently 6 weeks and I had a miscarriage last year may, I'm going through the same thing, I've had no symptoms at all but I think it might just be this pregnancy. My pregnancy with the miscarriage I had loads of early pregnancy symptoms, so I'm really confused. I've booked myself an early scan just to ease my mind. Try talking to ur Dr's as they sometimes offer early scans. I went private with mine tho, it's around £185 where I'm from

Hi hunny - I’m not sure if this will make you feel better, but when I had a miscarriage I had all the symptoms you can imagine - and was told at my 12 week scan there was no heartbeat I know it’s really hard to do, but try not to worry 🩷🩷 I have minimal symptoms this time too xx

@Indre it depends where in the UK. In Oxfordshire you can get a reassurance scan on the NHS from 6 weeks if you experienced a miscarriage before. That’s what the nurse told me when I had my MC

@Charlee for a scan? Yes I’d say not before 6 weeks

I was in your same boat. Symptoms at 4 weeks - fatigue, sore breasts, no nausea. I'm now 6 weeks 3 days and my symptoms have steadily dropped for the past 5 days - no fatigue, minimally sore breasts, no nausea. I got a reassurance scan today and baby is healthy with strong heartbeat. I am sure you will be fine too! Reduced symptoms doesn't equal miscarriage, it means your body could have adjusted to the pregnancy hormones. See if you can get an earlier scan for reassurance. Sending love.

I’ve had my scan today and there was a tiny heart beat. 7 weeks today ❤️

I'm so glad it all worked out ❤️

Just a question was you 7 weeks based on your last period? Unsure if I should be basing it off last period or ovulation x

@Larissa NHS recommend going off first day of your last period till you get the dating scans. According to the NHS way of dating I'm just under 5 weeks. According to clear blue dating test and my ovulation I'm not quite 3 weeks yet. At the dating scan (12weekz) they will give you a better idea of your due date and how far along you are

@Larissa my period would have made me 8 weeks

I feel exactly the same, I’ve had 3 back to back losses in the last year, hoping this will be 4th time lucky 😭 I’m 5 weeks now & under a consultant at a recurrent loss clinic. They prescribed progesterone and will do an early scan around 7 weeks so just hoping everything will be ok but it’s so hard not to think the worst, I just try and distract myself and tell myself positive statements like this is a new pregnancy and today I am pregnant 🙏🏻
