Help! What are my chances of having another Miscarriage?

[sammyjoe34]

Hi there, in November, I suffered a miscarriage, i was 6 weeks into the pregnancy at age 31. This happened to be a 2nd miscarriage, first occured when i was 16. I have had a son in between at the age of 22. I have just found out i am pregnant again...took 3 tests to make sure as i took the tests 6 days b4 period. all tests have come out positive. My LMP was on the 10th December, that was the only period i saw after my miscarriage( was advised to wait 1 month b4 trying again). However I am now so anxious and extremely worried about miscarrying again. Could any1 share similar experiences or know what my chances are of miscarrying again. Thanks so much!

According to the American Pregnancy Association:

What are the chances of having another miscarriage?

Many couples who experience a miscarriage worry that it will happen again. Fortunately, at least 85% of women who have had one loss will go on to have a successful pregnancy the next time, as will 75% of those who have experienced two or three losses.

Good luck!

i had 2 MC's within 5 months of eachother and had tons of testing done after the 2nd.  all tests came back normal.  within 4 months from that, i got pregnant again and here i am 33 weeks along today with a healthy boy.  so try to relax, take your vitamins and if you want to ease your mind, ask your doctor to run 2 hcg tests to make sure your levesl are rising:)

Congrats,.
