I am nine weeks and a bit and had a mc in March . I didn't mc until I was 13 weeks but the baby died at 9 weeks . I am also very nervous because I had a ultrasound the last time at 8 almost nine weeks and they told me that the baby died  that day or the day after . I did have a ultrasound last week and the heartbeat was there but because of what I went through the first time I really don't feel any better . I understand you and the only thing I can think of to help is to rent a fetal doppler of my own and monitor the baby . I don't find that my doctor is taking me that serious this time because he believe's that I am not at risk because I didn't have three mc in a row . So I won't say don't be nervous because it is impossible and you have every right to feel this way a mc is devastating !

Congrats on your pregnancy! Sorry about your earlier m/c. I think all of us in this forum right now are worried to some degree as we are all hovering around the first trimester mark.  

Have you received any feedback as to your tests on Friday?

Fingers crossed for us all. :)

I also am 8 weeks, and my last ended in a mc in feb.  I know your worries, but try not to think about it, it stresses the baby.  I agree after seeing the us last week, i feel better too.  Ask your dc for an early us.  If you need anything feel free to write

Congrats! I will be 9 weeks tomorrow, and my last pregnancy also ended in miscarriage. Since I have had an ultrasound, I am a lot more confident that everything is going to be okay this time around!! Send me a message anytime you would like to talk :)

Im sure you will be just fine..... try not to worry about things (easier said than done I know) but just put it all in gods hands....... and things will turn out fine! I think we all have the same worries! I am 9 weeks and my last pregnancy ended in a miscarriage so there is always this underlying fear! But god blessed you with another chance YAYYY! I will keep fingers crossed for ya!
