Getting back in the saddle

Hello again
I was a part of the community about 2 years ago with my first pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage in jan 2015. Well surprise we are trying again and i am due in october of this year. I have been havinh some major anxiety about being pregnant again and worried that it will end the same way. Has anyone else had this kind of stress? How did you cope with it when it came rime to try again?

I'm going through that stress now. I have 3 beautiful healthy girls already, last year in May I miscarried at 16 weeks and I'm pregnant again 8 weeks today due October 6th. I try not to think about the miscarriage cause it just starts stressing me out but it's very hard not to especially after having 3 healthy pregnancy before. Each day I just hope and pray all goes well this time around. I wish you the best of luck and just try to stay relaxed and take care of yourself is all we really can do.

My first pregnancy went well and my son is 2 now. I had a missed miscarriage for #2 I found out at my 12 week apt the babies heart had stopped around 10 weeks and had a D and C. It took 5 months to get pregnant again and I miscarried before I even had an ultrasound probably about 5 1/2 weeks. While waiting for a Dr apt to see if anything is wrong I unintentionally ended up pregnant again, I guess after a year of trying we got used to not taking precaution. Now I'm waiting again to be seen and see how things go this time but it's hard to have high hopes. I keep from stressing by remembering that all I can do it take care of myself, if something is going to go wrong I really can't do anything about it. If you've only had one miscarriages chances this one will work out are well in your favor. I hope everything works out.

My first pregnancy ended with a miscarriage. I went on to have 3 healthy pregnancies. With my eldest, every twinge I'd panic, and I did spot a little, that scared me to death. But he's here and healthy. No one can really give you drive cause the only thing we can say is to relax. And I know how hard that is. So I'm not going to say that, I'm going to say congratulations instead :) xxx
