miscarriage

I suffered a miscarriage a week ago, I was 7 weeks 3 days.  Although I hadn't planned the pregnancy I had really started to look forward to the baby.  I already have 2 children and had no problems during those pregnancies.  The guilt and anger im feeling is unbearable I couldn't go through this again.  What are the chances of me suffering another miscarriage if i was to try for another baby, are the risks higher this time round because i've already had one??

I am so sorry, I too lost my baby in April. I was 8 wks along when there was no more heartbeat. I am trying again this month and going insane wondering when and if I will ovulate. I know the feeling. That was my first pregnancy and wasnt planned but we were so excited after it sunk in. I sit on here still and find myself crying still missing my baby. I know its hard, but time will heal all things, but you will never forget that baby. It's in Gods hands and it just wasnt meant to be. Just try to think like I am. When its meant to be it will be. God knows what he wants for you and thats a healthy baby. I had to listen to my friend yesterday call me and to give me the news she is having a girl and all about her u/s and the whole experience. I was fighting back the tears, but was so excited for her. Everything will work out, for and me both when the time is right. I am so sorry for your loss. Question, did you pass everything naturally or had to have a d and c?

hey hunni, im really sorry what happened. i lost in oct at 9 weeks. i felt all the thing you are. i was angry that other people got to keep theie babies when they dont deserve them. upset that i lost my baby, annoyed coz people couldn't see how upset i was, just because that child wasnt born yet doesnt mean that you didnt feel love for that child straight away.
i thought i wouldn't get pregnant again, didn't think my body worked. So in january found out i was pregnant, i bled at 9 weeks i thought i couldn't do it again. i cried fore ages, but everything turned out ok, im now 23 weeks pregnant. I know how much its annoying when people say theres no reason that next time wont go ok. You have two children already so you know your body works. Next time will be better. Hold in there hunni i know its bad right now, but i promise you it will get better. hug and kisses to you. Hope it helps. xXx

I am very sorry about your loss.. remember that every pregnancy is different and 1 out of 4 in all pregnancies end in a miscarriage, so the rate is very high and may happen to any one... My first pregnancy ended up in a miscarriage at 8 1/2 weeks and now I am 25 weeks pregnant.... be positive and you should be fine.... it is more likely that your miscarriage was due to chromosome abnormality which is the reason for over 50% of all miscarriages....
